sTRX4 Threadripper Workstation Board
The ASUS PRIME TRX40-PRO S is an ATX motherboard built around the AMD TRX40 chipset for 3rd Gen Ryzen Threadripper processors. It targets professionals who need high core counts and large memory capacity in a standard form factor.
Eight DDR4 Slots Up to 256GB
Creators and engineers running memory-intensive workloads benefit from eight 288-pin slots supporting quad-channel DDR4 up to 4666 MHz O.C. and 256GB total. Builds requiring ECC UDIMM support are covered. Systems needing registered ECC or more than eight DIMMs should choose a WRX80 platform instead.
Three PCIe 4.0 x16 SafeSlots
The board provides three reinforced PCIe 4.0 x16 slots wired for x16/x16/x16 operation with recommended 3rd Gen Threadripper CPUs. This layout decides whether multi-GPU compute or multiple high-bandwidth add-in cards will fit without sharing bandwidth.

Questions about this item
Will this board take my existing DDR4 ECC modules?
Yes, the eight 288-pin slots accept both ECC and non-ECC un-buffered DDR4 up to 256 GB total in quad-channel mode.
How many full-length graphics cards can run at x16 speed?
Three PCIe 4.0 x16 SafeSlots support x16/x16/x16 mode with a 3rd Gen Threadripper CPU; using the first and second or first and third slots is recommended for two cards.
What M.2 drives fit the three onboard slots?
Two CPU-linked slots take 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 M-key drives at PCIe 4.0 x4; the chipset slot is a vertical M-key 2280/22110 also at PCIe 4.0 x4.
