Where all other TRX40 motherboards with the luxurious options sell at 800~1000 USD even, ASRock outs their TRX40 Creator, and the price is 499 USD. A heck of a lot of money, but features wise you still receive AX WOFO and 10 Gbps Ethernet. Worth it?

In this review I’ll be looking at the MSI TRX40 Creator motherboard. This is a board supporting the extreme upper end of the AMD product line and designed specifically for the Threadripper 3. This is my first hands on look at the new platform and while I really wanted to use the X399 I’m glad I waited.

Today, we’ll be taking a quick look at the ASRock TRX40 Creator motherboard. It features AMD’s TRX40 chipset, and suitable for all the latest Ryzen Threadripper 3000-series processors. We’ve already reviewed ASRock’s other model, the TRX40 Taichi, which we thought was an excellent motherboard that offered a ton of features and excellent performance.

The TRX40 Aorus Master’s shorter voltage regulator means it will fit more case and cooler combos. But its added depth means it will fit fewer ATX (but all EATX) cases. If this board plays well with the rest of our components and you like lots of expansion slots and M.2, it’s well worth considering.

Keen observers will note that the primary reason that the other ASRock board we tested (the TRX40 Taichi) was designed with its top slot in the second location was that its voltage regulator encroached upon DIMM placement, and that ASRock had to basically halve the TRX40 Creator’s voltage regulator to fit it between those banks of DRAM.

Don’t be misled into thinking the Master is some stripped down bare bones number though. It’s extremely high end, just relative to the ultimate premium nature of the Xtreme it seems to have less to offer. Compared to anything currently available though it’s still a blinder, so let’s give you a run through before our full review on launch day.
