If you are a professional, I'd urge people not to buy the ASUS variant.
I currently use the threadripper pro 3955WX, and I went with the ASUS sage WRX80 board. It was great, until the ipmi failed.
I RMA'd it, where they claimed there was damage to the board that didn't match the photos I took before I sent it.
They then shipped it back via fedex, without signature and it got stolen.
I didn't get an insurance payout because there was no signature required and ASUS never gave me the option. I lost one of my first professional video editing clients because of ASUS. I use the Asrock board now and it's better plus it has TB4.
It's sad to see where ASUS is right now, they used to be fairly solid and dependable.
