ASUS today released the Z7S WS workstation motherboard. This innovative motherboard is equipped with dual socket 771 and utilizes the latest Intel® 5400 chipset for vigorous performance. It also supports fully buffered DDR2 800MHz dual-channel memory, dual PCI Express 2.0 x16 lanes; and comes in the compact CEB form factor. With this innovative motherboard, users will enjoy convenient slot expansion and enjoy fast and efficient work efficiency.

• High Efficiency with Multiple High Speed Expansion Slots
  The multiple slot interfaces increase expansion choices and allows users to obtain high data transmission speeds. Supporting dual PCIe 2.0 x 16 for double the normal bus bandwidth from 2.5 Gb/s to 5.0 Gb/s, users will truly be able to accomplish more tasks in a much shorter time; while enjoying backward compatibility with previous PCIe 1.1 standards. The Z7S WSalso showcases PCI-X slots for more convenience on slot expansion, and is able to bring about full speeds for Gigabit Ethernet, SCSI RAID and other PCI-X devices.
• Compact Board Size with Dual CPU Support and Rich I/O
  The Z7S WS is well equipped with dual CPU sockets, 6 FB-DIMMs, and rich I/O; and still fits into the compact CEB form factor (12” x 10.5”) – allowing users and enthusiasts to build up a small and compact whilst extremely powerful dual CPU workstation system with great performance.
• Heat-pipe Solution for Noiseless Environments
  Equipped with ASUS’ innovative heat-pipe solution, the Z7S dissipates heat efficiently. The Z7S’s particular heat-pipe design is made to increase durability, life spans and enhance thermal capacity. It also provides highly efficient operations with less heat than traditional heat sink designs.
• Discrete Audio MIO Card for Improved Sound
  The MIO audio card offers great sound quality to complement the robust video power. This card offers enhanced signal-to-noise ratio in a 7.1 surround channel setup – delivering exhilarating surround sound for professional and entertainment usage.
• Exclusive MemCoolTM Support for Enhanced Thermal Solutions
  The optional ASUS Patented MemCool Kit maximizes Fully-buffered DIMM performance by eliminating the potential risk of system memory throttling from over-temperature; as well as minimizing the system integration effort of SI for thermal & acoustic solutions.
• Easy and Convenient Installations
  Users will also enjoy the specially designed “extra” features that come with the Z7S WS. With Q-Connector, users can connect and disconnect chassis front panel cables in one easy step with just one complete module. This unique adapter eliminates the trouble of plugging in one cable at a time – making connections quick and accurate. Secondly, ASUS’ Q-Shield does without the usual "fingers" of traditional gaskets – making it convenient, easy and safe to install without the scratches and cuts like before. The Q-Shield also has better electric conductivity to ideally protect the motherboard against static electricity and shield users against harmful Electronic Magnetic Interference (EMI).
