The ASUS WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI PCIe 4.0 eATX Motherboard looks a little better for heatsinking?

Yes, but it doesn’t support PBO

23

and until now ASUS WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI is the only WRX80 motherboard that’s have 7x PCIe 4.0 x16, compare to Asrock WRX80 Creator just 5x PCIe 4.0 x16 + 2x PCIe 4.0 x8

I was pumping 500w into it and it wasn’t getting too hot, safe to say the heatsink will be sufficient for stock use

CPU at idle is 37C’ ish. Bounces up and down .5C because of Windows never being still. It’s also the middle of the summer in Bermuda. YMMV.

GPU is 28C

Wait, upgrades have a budget?

Hmm, that would make things easier.

Very nice, but much larger board that wouldn’t fit in a non-XL Meshify 2, and doesn’t support PBO or overclocking (not that I was particularly interested in that but the form factor is what did it for me).

Whats composition of 500w do you use and how do you calculate ?
CPU ?, PCIE ?, motherboard ?

30

Which RAM do you use ?

31

HWinfo64 Will tell you the power consumption of your CPU
measurement were taken during 10 minute run of Cinebench R23 which typically has the highest power consumption benchmark out of my testing suite

I was referring to the Asrock creator 5975wx setup mentioned earlier in the thread

Good idea…

Hi all

I am planning to build a very similar machine (just a water-cooler and double amount of memory, rest is identical to Richards build) but I am struggling with the memory to choose:

Does anyone know if I can use 8x Micron Crucial 64 GB reg ECC DDR4-3200 MTA36ASF8G72PZ-3G2B2 on the Asrock WRX80 Creator board ? It is dual rank and I have to populate all 8 channels. Will this run at 3200 or only at reduced speed?

Check the QVL on that mobo for compatibility info on the manufacturer website. Should tell you the exact model number and frequency of what works.

Here is what I purchased, which seemed to align with Wendell’s recommendations from his Threadripper Pro memory video: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082DNB3T5?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

These are ECC Registered RDIMMs, not LRDIMM or 3DS, and this is the largest capacity you can get (64GB per module) before you have to move to those.

NEMIX is just a reseller (the manufacturer for mine was SK Hynix), but I’ve had good luck with them in the past.

that’s the problem - they only have compatibility info for “toy-memories” not a single 64GB brick…
and not a word on rank for RDIMMS

Be sure to keep us updated on it

Did you update your motherboard before putting in the 5000 series cpu?

39

No, mine shipped with the newest BIOS.

Mine had the latest BIOS already installed as well.
