As you know, the Ryzen Threadripper 3000 line of processors includes the Threadripper Pro 3000WX models, which are distinguished by support for AMD Pro technology, an increased number of PCIe 4.0 lanes, an eight-channel RAM controller, and more supported RAM.
Of course, this line is designed primarily for corporate users, so there are some nuances here. For example, the lack of a choice of motherboards. Apart from the reference model that underlies the Lenovo P620 ThinkStation, there are simply no other WRX80-based motherboards on the market, which is explained by an exclusive deal with Lenovo.
It is all the more interesting to look at the Asus WRX80 Pro WS Sage SE model, which, apparently, will soon become available to those who wish.
As you can see, the fees are huge. More precisely, it is very wide (EEB form factor), which made it possible to fit not only eight slots for RAM modules but also a fairly massive cooling system. You can also see seven PCIe slots, many SATA ports, a POST code indicator, and four power connectors at once.
Unfortunately, it is not yet clear when such boards will become available to everyone.
