Yes that sucks. I bought four Mobo $200 each only to find out that it can detect only 13 GPUs. But is that true that we can mix GTX and RX to have all 19 GPUs running ? Anyone tried successfully?
It won't work without the P106 cards. There's no workaround to that to my knowledge as of right now. If you bought it from any major retailer and you don't want to keep the mobo, chances are you'll be able to return it for free.

Is that P106 is the same with 1060? I have no idea with nvidia cards.. I hope that there's new bios update will available to enable this mobo to run 19gpu with the same cards..

Sorry for the slow response, but the P106 is different from the 1060 as it’s a specialized mining card and it won’t work with the board to fill it out. If you want to fill out the boards it’s still possible to buy the P106 cards, but as you likely already know they’re pretty expensive compared to other available GPUs.

The P106 hasn't been listed LATELY on Newegg, but they have been in the past.
Gigabyte models as I recall, unfortunately.

I think it never will be support 19 normal gpus.
Amd have never said that.
You have to combine it with p106 or p104 which normal people cant buy.

 Normal people CAN buy the P106 - they have been listed on NewEgg and Amazon - they're just in very short supply due to high demand and LOW production.

 P104 as far as I know is only just hitting production, and is not widely available yet - it remains to be seen what the production levels of THAT GPU get to.



they never been listen on newegg, normal ppl never could buy p106....

I see this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvbqkv2SgHc

from the video it seems like Nvidia GTX 1060 is same as 106 cards and you can use 8*gtx 1060 + 11*AMD cards to get this motherboard going with 19 GPUs. Anyone got it working in this setup? I have 7 GTX 1060 and would like to use this motherboard. 106 cards are pretty hard to find.

From Asus site:

B250 Mining Expert lets you run up to 19* NVIDIA or AMD GPUs in parallel to max out your megahash rates!

* B250 Mining Expert currently supports a total of up to eight NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. An unlimited number of GPUs will be supported following a driver update that is planned for Q4 2017.

And then the driver update came:
https://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1034921

Based on the new driver updated from AMD, ASUS proudly announces that B250 MINING EXPERT supports 19x GPU for mining. Comparing with competitors, B250 MINING EXPERT is the world’s 1st MB to support up to 19x GPU.


There is no info about a future bios update that allows people having 19 normal gpu. In my country only business is allowed to buy p106 or p104 in minimum quantity of 100pcs and 3 month warranty.

^^This

I don't recall Asus ever said the motherboard would support 19 regular cards. That was just wishful thinking from those that bought the board by taking the driver update Asus referred to for removing the previous 8 card limit to meaning they could use all regular cards with the board. Although Asus did a bad job of making the limitations of the board clear, all the literature said you needed to use mining cards for more than 11 AMD GPU's.

Neo,

Why Kabby Lake i5 7400T? Celeron is enough.

Another miner that considers Celeron a fail for 8 GPU builds:

It's so wrong....
