Thank you @RolloZ170 I thought so
looks like ACE slightly better in this department.or ironically gigabyte with C741.
Why ACE is better? Isn't this due to the limitations of PCI-E lanes?Thank you @RolloZ170 I thought so
or ironically gigabyte with C741.
they have both unfortune things, e.g. ACE = only quad-channel memory.Thank you @RolloZ170 I thought so
or ironically gigabyte with C741.
I mean in terms of number PCIE slots, judging by block diagram ACE has 5 - PCIE slots, two of which has switch and could work as PICE x16/x0 or PCIE x8/x8 . for me it's meter I could stick extra x8 nic without PCIE riser/splitter card.
Thank you @RolloZ170 you are reading my thought, I was about to ask of drawbacks of W790 except of number of memory channels when running QYFS.
Also wold ASRock W790 WS R2 works with QYFS? I see it's mentioned in spreadsheet just not sure about R2.
Thanks.

ASRock W790 WS is working with QYFR, should work with QYFS too.
ASRock W790 WS R2.0 is ASRock W790 WS without BCLK Engine.
It works - I did a build with W790 WS R2 and QYFS. Same precautions as with other W790 boards regarding C6.
Using a 80 lanes cpu like QYFS on SAGE enables pcie slot #6 and both M2 Gen5 slots.
It's not documented by Asus because this combination was never intended.
Just wondering does anyone know if this chip will work on the ace? Intel Xeon Max 9480 56-Core 1.9GHz SRMJA Sapphire Rapids HBM Processor, Grade A- | eBay
Intel Xeon Max 9480 56-Core 1.9GHz SRMJA Sapphire Rapids HBM
Intel Xeon Max 9480 56-Core 1.9GHz SRMJA Sapphire Rapids HBM
retail platinum 8480 don't work, so Xeon Max can't work.
BIOS completelylacks support and socket need to supply add. voltage.
I encountered a problem with the assembly QYK8 + ASUS Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE + RDIMM 6800Mhz 16GB from kingston + Noctua cooler. I installed 2 memory sticks in the right slots according to the manual, the stock BIOS was 0215. Only the processor, memory and video card were installed. Once I saw POST code 31 (memory installed), from the very beginning there was no image on the monitor (I did not use a UEFI video card) but the USB keyboard responded to pressing, but then I reset the CMOS and the processor LED (1st LED in a group of four) on the upper right began to light up red. I updated the BIOS to 0805 , then to 1202, wiped the processor with alcohol, but unsuccess - CPU red LED is light . I do not have other processors, as well as a motherboard. What else can you advise to do?
you got POST codes, return to this config.
GPU may not compatible and if you see image very late after memory and PCIe initialisations.
use the onboard analog VGA 15pin (integrated in ASPEED BMC)
Today I add an extra 8-pin power cable near the 24-pin connector (from the left) and the total number of cables = 4. A pair of 8-pin + 24-pin and an extra 8-pin to the left of the 24-pin connector. I saw the post but the system hangs in BIOS (latest version 1502), it seems something with the C-states? Who uses what BIOS version with QYK8 and other D0 processors?
normaly freeze at OS load. try 0215.
ES and latest BIOS is not a good idea. can work but must not.
In total, I flashed 5 different BIOSes to this board and as a result, everything hangs at the stage of entering the BIOS or on the first BIOS screen. I tried to install 1, 2 and 4 memory sticks, their volume is determined correctly. The 1 kW power supply previously worked without problems. The motherboard itself is new, the processor - QYK8 from Ebay, Noctua cooling with 2 coolers, plus 2 additional coolers are installed to blow the VRM and socket. I have run out of ideas, something is not working properly, installing and reinstalling the processor with wiping it with alcohol did not help, using integrated or discrete graphics as well. I think either the processor QYK8 or the board.
