With AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO processors, ASRock WRX80 Creator supports 5 full speed PCIe gen4 x16 slots, deliver all the performance of PCIe 4.0 to your GPU and add-on cards. Fullfill all the professional design, deep learning, simulation and rendering applications.

POLYCHROME RGB

This motherboard features onboard RGB headers and an addressable RGB header that allow motherboard to be connected to compatible LED devices such as strip, CPU fans, coolers, chassis and so on. Users may also synchronize RGB LED devices across the Polychrome RGB Sync-certified accessories to create their own unique lighting effects

Dual AQUANTIA® / Marvell 10GbE LAN

equipped with dual Marvell (Aquantia) 10GbE controller. The new 10Gb/s network standard was specially designed to satisfy the user who is seeking immediate performance improvements. It offers blazingly fast 10-gigabit/sec transfer speed over Cat6 cable. The 10Gb/s Ethernet not only fully compatible with 5Gb/s, 2.5Gb/s & Gigabit Lan but also delivers lightning fast transfer speed, perfect for media center, workstation and gaming PC.

Wi-Fi 6E 802.11ax

WiFi 6E technology has extended to the whole new 6GHz spectrum band, providing more WiFi capability and giving an even better and faster internet traffic. In addition to deliver higher speeds, the WiFi 6E also enhances the lower latency and supports service levels that are equivalent to 5G networks.

Flexible Integrated I/O Shield

Unlike most so called pre-mounted I/O shield that is only decorated with fancy color schemes. We reserve more tolerance space and allow IO shield is adjustable when installing, thus fitting chassis perfectly without any mechanical issue.

Aspeed® AST2500 BMC Controller

AST2500 provides customer the best performance server management solution. In additional to the advanced BMC(Baseboard Management Controller) features, the on chip PCIe 2D VGA provides server systems with local display capability without adding extra cost for VGA add-on card. The embedded ARM11 and DDR4 1600Mbps meet the increasing performance requirements of the server system.
