AMD’s Next-Gen TRX50 Motherboards

AMD Threadripper 7000 central processor units will be supported by the next-generation TRX50 motherboards that are currently being developed by AMD’s board partners. These motherboards are now in the process of entering mass production.

Threadripper 7000 HEDT & Workstation CPU AMD TRX50 Motherboards Have Been Found

This time around, ASRock is working on the TRX50 WS, a motherboard that will employ AMD’s TRX50 socket and WS chipset and will provide compatibility for the most current Threadripper 7000 “Storm Peak” processors.

ASRock always has its full stack prepared, regardless of whether they are working with mainstream or workstation systems. This motherboard has been listed by the EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission), and it is projected that it will be accessible in the fourth quarter of 2023, when the lineup is expected to be on shop shelves.

As suggested by its name, this particular motherboard appears like it will be focusing on the workstation side of things as its primary market. ASRock’s current TRX40 product portfolio included the Taichi and Creator products. These weren’t only geared at providing workstation-class functionality, rather, they were also influenced by gaming aesthetics.

It has been four years after the debut of the TRX40 series. However, at the same time, ASRock was also releasing the WRX80 series as part of the Creator family. This series was built specifically for “WX” PRO chips. This motherboard had support for eight channels of RAM and included a generous number of PCI Express lanes.

It’s possible that the same thing will happen here with the AMD TRX50 motherboards, which will keep the lineup basic and make it more user-friendly for high-end desktop computers, while the WRX series range will concentrate on providing customers with an abundance of functionality to meet the needs of the workstation market. That there will be two platforms for the Threadripper 7000 CPUs is something that we are aware of, and something that we have also very recently verified with a variety of motherboard manufacturers.

One will support 4-channel memory, while the other will support 8-channel memory. While the HEDT platform is expected to have the LGA 4844 “SP6” socket with 4-channel memory and 64 PCIe Gen 5 lanes support, the WS platform is expected to have the LGA 6096 “SP5” socket with support for up to 8 channels of memory and 128 PCIe Gen 5 lanes. Similarly, the majority of motherboard manufacturers specialized on HEDT “TRX” components rather than the Workstation SKUs. With the next-gen lineup, it may be the case as well.

Late in the year 2023 is when it is projected that the next-generation AMD Ryzen Threadripper 7000 “Storm Peak” central processing units would be introduced for the first time, provided that all goes according to plan. You should prepare to get further information sometime during the next several months.
