MSI has announced three TRX40 motherboards for the third generation of Threadripper processors. The boards are intended for professionals and creators and include the Creator TRX40, TRX40 PRO 10G and TRX40 PRO WIFI models, KitGuru reports.
MSI Creator TRX40 is the premium model in this offering, while the company points out that the motherboard comes with a new cooling solution, with a large VRM heat conductor. Heatsink and frozr fan are used for chip cooling, while protection for on-board sound hardware and dual M.2 Shield, which keeps the SSD temperature under control, are also present.
MSI’s PCIe 4.0 lines offer 64 GB/s of data traffic, enabling plenty of support for PCIe 4.0 SSDs. In addition, the M.2 XPANDER-AERO add-in card offers the option of connecting four M.2 SSDs to a single card, with data transfer speeds of 64 GB/s.
VRM uses 16 stages, while the MSI Core Boost function is coming back. Finally, the Creator TRX40 has 19 USB ports, two LAN ports (including 10G Super LAN connection), and Wi-Fi 6 support.
TRX40 PRO 10G and TRX40 PRO WIFi are very similar motherboards. Again the M.2 XPANDER card for SSD is offered, the new cooling solution for tiles. The differences are that PRO 10G offers 10G LAN, while PRO WIFI has on-board Wi-Fi 6.
The price of MSI TRX40 motherboards has not been announced, and should go on sale later in the month.
