Title: ASRock OC Formula Z87 Post by: Redrose on September 17, 2016, 07:58:53 PM Hello, I'd like to know the feeling of specialists about this motherboard (http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z87%20OC%20Formula/). It has 4 PCI-e slots, so it fits well my will of an intern 4 cards mining rig. However, this socket, Z87 seems old and I don't know it, so I'm not very sure.

It has 4 PCI-e slots, so it fits well my will of an intern 4 cards mining rig. However, this socket, Z87 seems old and I don't know it, so I'm not very sure. if you are only looking into running 4 cards. check is out http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138421&cm_re=biostar_motherboard-_-13-138-421-_-Product (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138421&cm_re=biostar_motherboard-_-13-138-421-_-Product) i have this mobo and it runs 4 cards no problem also its a newer board if you want a newer board Title: Re: ASRock OC Formula Z87 Post by: Redrose on September 17, 2016, 09:23:46 PM Thank you for the tip. Since Newegg do not ship to my country, I was first worried, but I've found it in one single shop in my country. So this is available, at 280$, yeah, but that's the price of the other 4 PCI-e motherboards, so not really shocking. If I remember well, Phil use that one, so this is something reliable. Mine is a bit cheaper, but I think that being sure of the product is maybe more important than a few dozen of dollars.
