Such specifications require serious power, so Prime TRX40-Pro S is equipped with an enhanced power solution that includes 16 power stages to ensure your processor keeps up with your creativity.
ProCool II Connectors
ProCool II connectors ensure a snug and reliable connection to the EPS 12V power lines. The second-generation features upgrades of metal amour and solid pins for better heat dissipation, as well as a warning LED-display with a BIOS POST message to indicate improper connections.
Cool to the Core
Effective content creation demands a reliable, professional foundation. Prime TRX40-Pro S is engineered with multiple onboard heatsinks and an array of hybrid fan headers to ensure your rig stays cool and stable under intense workloads, so that your focus remains fixed on your creative goals.
M.2 Heatsink
Two M.2 slots are covered by a massive heatsink to combat temperature-induced throttling that can affect performance during heavy, sustained storage loads.
Tune It Your Way
Comprehensive controls form the foundation of the ASUS Prime series. Prime TRX40-Pro S packs flexible tools to tune every aspect of your system, enabling you to tweak performance settings to perfectly match the way you work – maximizing your productivity.
5-Way Optimization
One click takes care of all that complex tuning. ASUS 5-Way Optimization makes your PC smart. It dynamically optimizes essential aspects of the system, providing overclocking and cooling profiles that are tailored for your rig.
- An automated tuning utility that optimizes overclocking and cooling profiles for your unique system configuration.
- Fans stay quiet as a whisper for everyday computing, and deliver optimal airflow when the system is crunching through CPU- or GPU-intensive tasks.
- The stress test allows you to optimize and overclock for CPU- or memory-centric workloads.
Little Things Make a Big Difference
We pay careful attention to all the little details that improve your overall experience, from utilizing exclusive codecs for pristine audio quality to intuitive RGB lighting controls for a customized look. Prime TRX40-Pro S provides the tools you need to personalize your build for a more enjoyable creation process.
Pre-Mounted I/O Shield
Set Up without Slip-Ups
Form meets function in the pre-mounted I/O shield that we pioneered with the ROG series motherboards. Now available on Prime TRX40-Pro S, this feature streamlines the installation process for budding builders and savvy enthusiasts alike.
FlexKey
The Chassis Reset Button – Reassigned
Flexkey, a front-panel header lets you customize the reset button on the front-panel of your chassis to provide quick access to our choice of Aura lighting controls, DriectKey or system reset.
BIOS FlashBack™
Update Your BIOS Without CPU and DRAM
BIOS FlashBack is the simplest and safest (UEFI) BIOS update method. Simply drop the (UEFI) BIOS file onto a FAT32-formatted USB stick, plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack port and press the button. Updates can even be performed without having memory or a CPU installed.
