I wonder if this board can truly run 20 GPUs for mining

They always say p104, p106, they never showed actually 20 gaming gpus, right now on this stupid announcement, again they said 12 gpus + 8 p104, which means this board is useless x the b250 mining expert, i mean it brings nothing new aside from the usb port. So move on, there is nothing to see here.

I'd be curious to just test it out.

My problem is, I still don't know where to get p104/106/102.

Where do you guys get those?

Yeah I run a couple B250's.  One with 8 cards and one with 6 currently.  I have no need or desire to run 20 gpu's on a single rig.  I see lots of potential issues.

Chaotic board with lots of cables. I prefer single 6-8 card rigs separately.

Interesting but it seems no better than the B250 Mining Expert in that it still requires mining cards over 12-13 GPU's. Perhaps more chipset and CPU PCI-E lanes are needed to go over that?

With 12 Radeon RX 470 and eight NVIDIA P104 cards tied to a single motherboard, our demo rig highlights how much horsepower can be harnessed by the H370 Mining Master

Bitcoin FTW!
I wonder if this board can truly run 20 GPUs for mining or if it's another one of those boards that requires special nVidia mining cards to function at full speed- they mentioned using 8 P104 cards in conjunction with 12 RX 470 cards to reach 20 cards. Either way, interesting board- can't wait to see it actually in action outside of Computex.
