The Gigabyte WRX80-SU8-IPMI in detail:
The other important features of the Gigabyte WRX80-SU8-IPMI motherboard include the two LAN ports with 10 Gbit / s (Intel X550-AT2). When it comes to audio, the manufacturer relies on the Realtek ALC1220-VB audio codec. This provides a total of five 3.5 millimeter jack sockets and an optical S / PDIF output on the I / O panel.

The mainboard has seven USB 3.1 ports (USB 3.2 Gen 2). These come as an internal Key-A header and in the form of a USB Type-C socket and achieve a maximum data transfer rate of 10 Gbit / s. The five other USB 3.1 ports are located on the I / O panel.

Expansion slots and connections for drives
The E-ATX mainboard provides seven PCIe x16 slots in the 4.0 standard for plug-in and expansion cards. Four SATA 6G connections (including RAID support) and two M.2 slots, each connected directly to the CPU with four PCI Express 4.0 lanes, are provided for connecting data carriers such as SSDs and hard drives . In addition to SATA, the M.2 ports also support the advanced NVM Express protocol, which has been specially optimized for the highly parallelized data carrier access of modern PCIe SSDs.

Danger:
WRX80 motherboards are only compatible with AMD Threadripper Pro series processors. The sWRX8 socket differs from other Threadripper sockets in that it has a different PIN assignment and is not compatible with older Threadripper CPUs!

Note:
Due to the size of the Ryzen Threadripper CPU, the sWR8 socket is very different from conventional sockets. When inserting the CPU, please carefully follow the instructions in the assembly instructions for the CPU or mainboard! It is an LGA socket! The pins are on the socket, not the CPU.
