Overclocking capabilities go above and beyond configurable BIOS options. The Pro WS W790 Series motherboards offer a robust power design that helps ensure reliable operation even when you dial in an extreme overclock. The VRM on the Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE is comprised of 14+1+1 power stages ready to deliver power efficiently. Massive VRM heatsinks on the MOSFETs and chokes keep these critical components at comfortable operating temperatures. ProCool II connectors, equipped with solid pins for better heat dissipation, ensure a snug and reliable connection to the 12V CPU input. Additional 8-pin and 6-pin PCIe power connectors ensure power output stability when users need to install multiple graphics cards.

I was looking at that earlier, after watching Level1Tech's related vid on Intel's new HEDT (below) yesterday. Look ma - no E-cores ?!  I am putting together some hardware lists for a light-to-medium AI jv project w/4x NVidia Ada L per mobo, but as much as the new Intel HEDT looks decent, I would not want to risk it as nobody has gotten any of those CPUs for serious review yet, and there are always those nasty early problems for early adopters. The Asus Sage for the Threadripper Pro (below vid) vid is almost identical but has been out a lot longer and matured.

 

In any case, I am glad that the HEDT market is finally getting some attention again from Intel (10980XE seems a long time ago). AMD has been sitting on their hands re. regular Threadrippers w/o Intel pushing them in that segment, as much as there actually are engineering samples of the 5990 'regular' TR out there.

 

My last two builds were the only non-HEDTs I have done in a decade or so...time to get back to that !
