Gigabyte MC62-G40 vs ASRock TURIN2D24G-2L+ Server Motherboard

These are not rivals in the same class. The Gigabyte MC62-G40 is a single-socket WRX80 workstation board for Threadripper PRO 5000 WX, with 8 DIMM slots, 7 PCIe Gen4 slots and dual 10GbE. The ASRock TURIN2D24G-2L+ is a dual-socket SP5 server board for EPYC 9004/9005 with 24 DDR5 slots, PCIe Gen5 and an integrated 500W PSU. Buy the Gigabyte for a Threadripper PRO workstation with fast networking and many Gen4 slots; buy the ASRock for a dense EPYC server. They share no socket, memory type or form factor, so neither is a drop-in substitute.

• Choose the Gigabyte MC62-G40 if you already have or plan to buy a Threadripper PRO 5000 WX CPU and want a CEB workstation board with dual 10GbE and seven Gen4 slots.
• Choose the ASRock TURIN2D24G-2L+ if you are building a dual EPYC 9004/9005 server and need 24 DDR5 DIMM slots, PCIe Gen5 and a built-in PSU.
