Topic: Recommendations on a good motherboard for mining alt coins? (Read 627 times)
you can go also for asus H270 prime , cheaper and very easy to config, i can say plug and play but you have to enable 4G 
hi guys, just a quick question
how much did you pay for your asus b250 mining expert motherboard ?
Right now they are selling for 400$ on amazon, is that fair ?

Not even close.
$150 appx is the MSRP, and I paid a hair under that for mine back before the current shortages hit.
These are going to become a collector's item if ASUS doesn't keep producing them, our team grabbed 10 right before the giant price jump thankfully.

I use those 2 brands:
Biostar TB250-BTC Ver. 6.x
Gigabyte GA-H110-D3A

I will put another vote for ASUS B250 Mining Expert. The BIOS is already set up to be optimize for mining and can support up to 19 cards if you ever want to expand in the future. I started with 2 GPUs but then quickly expanded to 4 and am planning the move to 6 very soon. Its becomes addicting and having the ability to just add cards and plug in additional PSUs directly (it supports 3 directly to the board). I installed mine with no issues and so far have nothing but great things to say about it. Hopefully that remains the case when I plug in my second PSU in a few weeks.
Board it a bit overkill unless you want to go with a LOT of cards in one rig, but it does work well and the built-in multi power supply management is nice - and the cost of the board isn't all THAT much higher than "lesser" 6/12/13 card mining boards - and gets QUITE competative when you compare it to an 1150 based board like the H81 Rev2 that has a fairly short list of available CPUS generally with higher prices due to supply shortages....
I recommend Asrock H110 pro btc too, more PCIE slots... So that you are free to expand to more GPU if you needed in future, and yet it is cheap.

TB250 motherboard
Came to ask about this. They're beautifully inexpensive right now; are they working well? What GPU(s) do you have in it?We have a mixture of GPUs across various rigs. Everything from 6x Rx 470s to 6x GTX 1080 Ti GPUs. With most of the Nvidia rigs being a mixture of GTX 10xx series GPUs.
Well, actually it's a little difficult to find the right motherboard for mining. It's hard to choose in the market and most of the it's very expensive. But you can try the ASRock H110 Pro BTC+ motherboard boasts 13 PCIe slots and is aimed at cryptocurrency miners. With support for up to 13 graphics cards, the H110 Pro BTC+ is the perfect motherboard for systems built to mine cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, LiteCoin, and ZCash. The motherboard uses the LGA 1151 socket which supports Intel 6th-gen and 7th-gen processors, and includes an M.2 slot for SSD storage.

We are using mostly Biostar TB350, TB85, and TB250 motherboardsin my wife's 13 rig farm. The nice thing is that they are all designed specifically to mine with 6 GPUs and are basically plug and play.
What about the Gigabyte h110-d3a ?
A lot cheaper than the Asrock and it looks like it was made for mining aswell.
Don't see many miners using it though.

Oh I see Gigabyte has also made a mining motherboard like the Asrock and Biostar and I must say the Gigabyte brand is perfect (having my own Z97 Gaming 3 running 5 Gpu-s in a gen 4 motherboard without problems) and is better than Asrock and Biostar.
One thing I disagree is the H110 chipset, is the lowest chipset of gen6/7 motherboards but if Gigabyte says it is perfect for mining then it is. For me is my top brand together with MSI.
In a meantime i did read some issues with people not being able to install an OS from USB (who used DVD rom these days ?) and some other stuff ....

I took the Gigabyte Z270P-D3 when it was on sale, about 65$, tested with 6 GPU without any issues.
Maybe can handle 7 GPU using the m2 connector, didn't test.

ASUS B250 Mining Expert in case you will want to increase your cards with the passing of time. For the moment is one of the best motherboards which up to 19 cards and has space for you to install 3 PSU-s to it. It should handle 6 cards without any problem at all.
If you don't intend to increase your cards get one ASROCK H81 PRO BTC or Rev 2.0 and it is one of the best boards which is specific for mining up to 6 cards.
