ROBUST POWER SUPPLY

14+1+1 Power Stages
The VRM of the Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE consists of 14+1+1 power stages and delivers the performance and efficiency required by the latest Intel® processors.

8-pin and 6-pin power connectors
Additional 8- and 6-pin PCIe® power connectors provide more stability in power delivery when creatives and developers use many graphics cards onboard.

Reliability with highest memory overclocking
The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE supports 8-channel 1DPC DDR5 RDIMM ECC memory, which automatically detects and corrects data errors, reducing the risk of system crashes. Thanks to its sophisticated memory layout, this motherboard allows for DDR5 memory overclocking to maximum speeds, delivering improved memory performance for a wide range of workloads.

ULTRAFAST CONNECTIVITY FOR MORE CREATIVITY

Intel® X710-AT2 Dual 10G Ethernet
The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE is equipped with two integrated 10G LAN ports and enables the transfer of multiple terabytes with low latency.

USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C®
The latest USB standard doubles the transfer bandwidth by opening an additional USB 3.2 lane to achieve maximum throughput of up to 20 Gbps. In addition to blazing-fast data transfer speeds, USB 3.2 offers easy connectivity and ultimate flexibility via USB-C ports.

3 M.2
The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE's three integrated M.2 22110 slots, two of which are connected via PCIe® 5.0 and one via PCIe® 4.0, simplify drive installation. Creators working with large video files can group multiple NVMe devices into a RAID array for massive I/O bandwidth and seamless playback in their editing suites. All three M.2 drives are housed under dedicated heatsinks to prevent SSD throttling under heavy load and feature ASUS Q-Latch.

More storage space
To connect even more high-speed storage, you can use SlimSAS slots for industrial SSDs as well as server and network devices via the fast PCIe® 4.0 interface.

Front panel connector
The front USB 3.2 Gen 2 port is ready for next-generation PC cases and devices.

SERVER-GRADE REMOTE MANAGEMENT

BMC remote management
An integrated BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) is an important feature for workstations. It utilizes a 1G Realtek controller, with one 1G port dedicated exclusively to the BMC to provide the intelligent IPMI architecture. The BMC manages the interface between the system management software and the platform hardware. Administrators can remotely communicate with the BMC to perform certain corrective actions, such as resetting or powering down a system.

REMOTE MANAGEMENT AT SERVER LEVEL

ASUS Control Center Express
The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE comes with ASUS Control Center Express – real-time IT monitoring and management software for businesses that improves productivity and enhances security to prevent unauthorized access and data leaks.

SOLID COOLING DESIGN

Massive VRM heatsinks
Because mass and airflow are critical, the VRM heatsinks are manufactured with tall, densely packed fins and positioned over the MOSFETs and inductors to improve thermal efficiency. The additional fan mount allows for the installation of up to three high-speed fans* to dissipate heat from the VRM areas, fully leveraging the performance of the latest Intel® processors.
* Fan size: 40mm x 40mm x 28mm. Fans are sold separately.

Chipset heatsink
A special and powerful chipset heatsink dissipates the heat and ensures optimal operating temperatures.

M.2 heatsink
Three M.2 slots are covered by heatsinks to prevent thermal throttling, which can affect performance under heavy, sustained storage loads. M.2 backplate blocks on select slots ensure your next-gen drives deliver even more performance.

DIY-FRIENDLY

Pre-assembled connection panel
The patented I/O shield features a sleek matte black finish and comes pre-mounted on the motherboard for easy installation. It's designed to allow airflow to keep heat away from the board.

BIOS FlashBack™
Users can place a BIOS file on a FAT32-formatted USB drive, simply plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack™ port, and press a button to update the (UEFI) BIOS. Updates can be performed even when no memory or CPU is present.

WORK WITH FUN

Immersive audio experience
The Realtek S1220A 7.1 audio codec features a high-quality 120 dB SNR stereo playback output and a 113 dB SNR recording input to deliver pristine audio quality. It is supported by EMI shielding and separate PCB layers for the left and right channels to ensure signal integrity.

Power pre-regulator
Reduces input noise to ensure consistent performance.

Audio shielding
