Overclockers use ASUS W790 workstation motherboards to set global performance benchmarks on Intel Xeon Sapphire Rapids processors.

ASUS recently announced that an international group of elite overclockers have set 10 world records and achieved 23 first-place finishes in a variety of performance benchmarks with the ASUS Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE workstation motherboards.

Powered by Intel® Xeon® Sapphire Rapids W9-3495X processor with 56 cores, along with G-Skill and V-Color DDR5 memory modules and several key Enermax components.

In addition to Der8auer and OGS, Safedisk, Shamino, SkatterBencher, and Elmor from ElmorLabs, the group featured SkatterBencher, Safedisk, Shamino, and Hagagu.

A groundbreaking motherboard for workstations:

Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE provides a new approach to overclocking workstations. There has been a tendency in the past for professionals to be cautious when it comes to trade-offs between performance and stability.

It’s possible, however, to push the system’s limits safely and effectively with the Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE. Professionals can unleash the full potential of their workstation platform thanks to its advanced BIOS settings and robust design. Performance and reliability are exceptional with the Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE.

With its Retry button and Safe Boot button, the ASUS Pro W790 workstation motherboard is incredibly helpful for overclocking. Powered by an Intel® Xeon® W9-3495X processor, it is able to overclock it to approximately 5.4 GHz, enabling exceptional Cinebench results.

The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE gives customers the ability to explore new performance horizons by offering all the features required to advance things.

The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE gives consumers the freedom to venture into new performance spheres by offering all necessary functionality.

Overclocking experts are impressed:

The main obstacle Der8auer encountered during an overclocking competition in March at ASUS’ worldwide headquarters in Taipei was the memory modules. In comparison to a desktop motherboard, eight slots involve dealing with twice as many module pins and condensation issues can occur when utilizing liquid nitrogen to maximize performance.

Because of this, the memory controller is challenging to operate at low temperatures. Hence, it can be difficult to achieve the ideal temperature balance between the memory clock and core clock when doing extreme overclocking.

Der8auer stated:

“The board is equipped well enough to handle almost 2000 watts, overclocking the 3495X to roughly 5.4 GHz in Cinebench. The platform itself is extreme in every regard ― max CPU, max power consumption, max performance. It’s also highly equipped, so you can utilize it for envelope-pushing performance.”

SkatterBencher expressed his astonishment at an ASUS Pro series workstation motherboard’s excellent overclocking potential on the W790 platform. Despite not having a reputation for having the ability to overclock, this model turned out to be a smooth and effective CPU tweaking tool.

The Cinebench R23 test

Before manually overclocking, SkatterBencher enabled MCE and XMP and started with stock settings while concentrating on water cooling. He also utilized the BIOS’s water-cooling profile, which increased performance by 40%. He praised the “super smooth” operation of the water cooler and expressed trust in the motherboard’s capacity to set the appropriate parameters.

SkatterBencher was generally pleased with the workstation board’s overclocking skills and commented:

“It’s pretty impressive for a workstation board to be that smooth for overclocking.”

He was able to quickly and simply fine-tune the CPU for optimum performance with the water cooling profile activated.

Below is a chart detailing the specific world records and first-place finishes achieved by these talented overclockers using the ASUS Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE workstation motherboard:
