ASUS today announced two new IntelW790 workstation motherboards – the Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE and the Pro WS W790-ACE. Each are built for the latest Intel Xeon W-3400 and W-2400 processors. In this new Pro WS W790 series, ASUS unleashes even more expandable graphics, extensive storage, impressive connectivity and famed reliability.
The Pro WS W790 series offers comprehensive hardware and software-level remote management to keep IT on track. The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE uses a dedicated gigabit Ethernet controller assigned to the onboard AST2600 BMC for the connection of IPMI architecture, allowing for BIOS updates, hardware resets, or critical issue fixes via a web UI. Users can access similar functionality with the Pro WS W790-ACE with ASUS IPMI expansion card. Additionally, the Pro WS W790 series comes with ASUS Control Center Express ― a real-time IT monitoring and management software designed to help IT administrators improve efficiency and protect digital assets from unauthorized access and data leaks.
The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE is empowered to overclock Intel Xeon W-3400 or W-2400 processors, and it features eight memory module slots supporting up to 2 TB of ECC R-DIMM DDR5 RAM, which may also be overclocked. The seven total PCIe 5.0 x16 slots deliver flexible configurability to support multiple performant GPUs in creation, architecture or data analytics. To add even more high-speed storage, two onboard SlimSAS slots let you connect industrial SSDs.
The Pro WS W790-ACE supports Intel Xeon W-2400 and W-3400 processors with eight RAM slots supporting up to 2 TB of ECC R-DIMM RAM in a quad-channel configuration. With its five PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, multi-GPU arrangements are once again on the menu. Three SlimSAS slots provide advanced storage options, and a 10 Gbps MarvellAQC113CS Ethernet port is ready for network attached storage. In addition, one 2.5 Gbps Intel I226-LM Ethernet port is ready for streaming or file uploads.
