| Exact model / era | ASUS Pro WS WRX90E-SAGE SE — sTR5 / WRX90 workstation platform for Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000 WX and 9000 WX processors, subject to BIOS support. (2024) |
| CPU and socket / SoC | One AMD Socket sTR5 processor; Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000 WX-Series and 9000 WX-Series support depends on the model-specific ASUS CPU list and minimum UEFI. |
| Chipset / platform | AMD WRX90 workstation platform; CPU-integrated I/O. |
| Memory and ECC | Eight DDR5 ECC Registered RDIMM slots in an eight-channel layout; up to 2 TB per ASUS specifications, with validated capacity/speed dependent on CPU and DIMM population. |
| PCIe and form factor | SSI-EEB; seven physical PCIe 5.0 x16 slots (six x16 and one x8 electrical per lane layout); available lanes and bifurcation depend on processor. |
| Storage | Four PCIe 5.0 M.2 sockets, two SlimSAS connectors for PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe, and four SATA 6 Gb/s ports; RAID availability depends on device/interface and firmware. |
| BMC and networking | ASPEED AST2600 BMC with dedicated management LAN/IPMI; two Intel 10GbE data LAN ports. |
Compatibility and revision notes
Use Socket sTR5 Ryzen Threadripper PRO WX models specifically listed by ASUS and update to the required BIOS. This is not sWRX8/WRX80 and is not compatible with consumer Ryzen. Confirm RDIMM population, cooler clearance, EEB chassis, auxiliary power and shared PCIe/storage lanes in the manual.
Socket type, connector shape, chipset branding and CPU family alone do not establish compatibility. Confirm the exact CPU support list, minimum BIOS, ECC/DIMM type and population, shared PCIe/storage lanes, power inputs and dimensions in the linked model-specific vendor documentation.
Preservation and repair
Record the board revision, serial label, BIOS and BMC versions, MAC addresses, attached risers/cables and test conditions before servicing. Use the vendor's socket procedure, ESD-safe handling and correct chassis airflow; do not cross-flash firmware from a related SKU.
Photograph PCB labels, connector condition and accessories before cleaning. Keep BMC access credentials in secure inventory, and never power the board with loose conductive hardware beneath it.
