GIGABYTE TRX40 Aorus Pro Wifi DDR4 AMD Motherboard

The GIGABYTE TRX40 Aorus Pro WiFi is an ATX form-factor motherboard (305 mm × 244 mm) built on the AMD TRX40 chipset and designed for AMD’s 3rd Generation Ryzen Threadripper processors using the sTRX4 socket. It pairs a robust 12+2 phase direct digital power design — using Infineon power stages rated at 70 A each — with a multi-layer Fins-Array heatsink, heatpipe, and thermal baseplate to keep VRM temperatures in check under sustained workloads. Memory support spans eight DDR4 DIMM slots in a quad-channel configuration, accepting up to 256 GB total (32 GB per slot maximum). Stock speeds start at DDR4-2133 and reach DDR4-3200 natively, with XMP profiles extending the ceiling to DDR4-4400 (O.C.). Both ECC and non-ECC unbuffered DIMMs are supported. Storage options include three M.2 connectors (all PCIe 4.0 x4 capable) paired with eight SATA 6 Gb/s ports, with RAID 0, 1, and 10 support from the chipset. The five PCIe 4.0 expansion slots — two running at x16, two at x8, and one x1 — allow AMD Quad-GPU CrossFire and NVIDIA Quad-GPU SLI configurations. Connectivity is handled by an Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 module (802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax, 2.4/5 GHz dual-band, up to 2.4 Gbps theoretical, 2T2R) alongside Bluetooth 5.0, and an Intel GbE LAN chip. The rear I/O provides five USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, and four USB 2.0 ports, complemented by a Q-Flash Plus button for BIOS updates without a CPU or memory installed. Audio is handled by a dual-codec solution — Realtek ALC4050H and ALC1220-VB — supporting DTS:X Ultra, 7.1-channel output, and S/PDIF optical out. WIMA audio capacitors are included board. RGB FUSION 2.0 controls onboard multi-zone addressable and standard RGB LED headers (two of each type), and Smart Fan 5 manages eight hybrid fan/pump headers with individual temperature sensor inputs and FAN STOP support. The BIOS uses dual AMI UEFI flash chips (2 × 128 Mbit) with Gigabyte’s DualBIOS redundancy. The board carries a 3-year manufacturer warranty.
