Asus new motherboard for the professional/enthusiast, and those with very deep pockets. So what does this board bring?

  • Dual socket 3647 for Intel Xeon Scalable processors with Xeon overclock tuning
  • 12 ram slots DDR4 up to 2666MHz 768GB max ECC in Hexa Channel
  • 7 PCIe x16 slots, with 3 of them running at x16. 2 of them running at single x16 or dual x8, and 2 of them running at x8
  • 10 SATA ports, 4 U.2 ports, and 1 M.2 port that will work with both SATA and PCIe M.2 SSD
  • Supports 4-way Nvidia SLI and AMD CrossFire X. This depends on the graphic card that you get cause not all of them will work a 4-way setup.
  • For power it needs a single 24 with dual 8. There is a EATX 6 pin 12v around the U.2, probably for extra power to the PCIe x16 slots. Note that, this is not the same 6 pin for your graphic card.
  • 7+1 phase for CPU and 2 phase for DRAM
  • Other parts are the 9 fan headers including those for the CPUs, internal usb 3.0, TPM, COM port, Q-Code LED, Power and Reset LED switches, Intel VROC Hardware Key, and VGA header. Yes this board has a VGA internal header on the board, power by a Aspeed AST2500 with 64MB of VRAM.
  • On the back, you get your USB 3.1 Gen 1 and Gen 2, including Type C, PS/2 combo port, Audio jacks, dual gigabit lan, and a USB Bios Flash Back button
  • Uses the EEB form factor, that's 12 inch x 13 inch ( 30.5cm x 33.0cm )
  • One unique component on the board is located above the CMOS battery. That could be a MicroSD or SIM card slot. Asus did not provide any info on that.

That's a micro SD icon right above that slot. Sim wouldn't make sense anyway. 

 

For updating the bios maybe?

Nah, cause you're still using 2 CPUs...  That would by 7 Gamers 1 Motherboard.  

 

Here is what I would want to see looked at using for a new 7 Gamers 1 CPU build... ;)

Get out the dremel you need to cut the back of the x8 PCIe slots to allow x16 cards.

I think they mean cpu as in the whole computer. So a quad socket Xeon is still called a CPU.

I think the fact the RAM will stick up is a bigger issue if you have long gpu's than the little piece of plastic in the PCI-E slot :P

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

...this is just awesome to another level... 

 

ASUS makes the most awesome motherboards, so why does their EU support have to be so bad... keeps me from buying ASUS tbh

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

True, but i don't think there are current high-end cards that are small enough.

Vega nano might be a thing, but for now it isn't and afaik 1080's or 1080ti's aren't available in such a small size with a waterblock. Could be wrong about that tho, too lazy to check :D
