Next-gen transfer speeds WS C422 Sage/10G 's front panel USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.1 connector is ready for next-gen PC cases & devices. With backward-compatible USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.1 Gen 2 Type-A & reversible USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C ports, you'll experience ultimate connection flexibility & blazing data-transfer speeds of up to 10 Gbps. Multiple Ultra-efficient heatsinks Designed for the powerful Intel&174; Xeon&174; scalable processor with up to 28 cores, WS C422 Sage/10G features a capable thermal design to ensure maximum performance with no CPU throttling. Consisting of an ultra-efficient VRM heatsink with a metal fin array design that maximizes surface area for heat dissipation, plus two additional heatsinks & a connecting heatpipe to further increase cooling performance, this innovative thermal design ensures WS C422 Sage/10G is always ready to handle any task, no matter how demanding. With its dual PLX chips that increase the number of available PCIe lanes to enable 4-way GPU configurations, WS C422 Sage/10G features a robust thermal solution to dissipate the heat that comes with routing so much high-speed traffic. An additional heatsink array & heatpipe cover the PLX chips & are positioned in the path of maximum airflow within the chassis, reducing PLX temperatures by up to 20&176; C to ensure optimal cooling & system stability. Safe Slot Safe Slot is the PCIe slot reinvented by ASUS & engineered to provide superior retention & shearing resistance. Manufactured in a single step using a new insert-molding process, Safe Slot integrates the slot with fortifying metal for an inherently stronger slot, which is then firmly anchored to the PCB through additional solder points. Outstanding Audio for content creator Unique audio codec designed in close collaboration with Realtek&174;. The Realtek&174;S1220A features an unprecedented 120d B signal-to-noise ratio for the stereo line-out & an 113d B SNR for the line-in, providing pristine audio quality. Immersive headphone Audio DTS Headphone:X&132;&162; Offers 3D surround-sound technology for incredibly rich audio with all types of headphones. Upgrade your RAID Intel&174; Virtual RAID on CPU (VROC) obliterates PCH-based RAID arrays that are bottlenecked by the 32 Gbps limit of the DMI bus, allowing you to utilize CPU PCIe lanes to configure a bootable RAID array that can transfer data at insane speeds. *A VROC key is required to enable VROC RAID arrays. For information about VROC key availability, please contact your local Intel representative. Supporting Thunderbolt EX3 card WS C422 Sage/10G provides full support for a Thunderbolt EX 3 card.
