Title: Motherboard Asus H370 Mining Master Prepare 20 GPU Slots
Post by: waiki on June 02, 2018, 09:14:55 AM
Asus raise their motherboard mining game with their Asus B250 Mining Expert Motherboard successor with 19 PCI-E Slots. This new mining motherboard is called Asus H370 Mining Master and comes with support for up to 20 GPUs using PCIe directly via USB connection.

The presence of a direct USB connector mounted on the motherboard simplifies connectivity by allowing the riser USB cable directly into the PCB and the direct connection is stronger than using a PCIe card, with less chance of accidental disconnection, as well as reducing the total number of parts on your rig.

you can run these many on Windows, I have seen up to 19 on windows but the trick is to get mining cards with normal GPUs and they go in specific order.

Well, it sounds good to have 1 MB (and 1 CPU, 1 SSD/HDD...) with so many GPUs, but it could be tricky if it stop working and you need to wait for new quantities to arrive to get replacement. I guess that in small countries this model won't be available all the time. I would rather go with some more common setup, where you can easily switch any component with similar model from other vendor.

I'm interested in getting one of these.  I run Windows currently and this will give me a reason to brush up on Linux.  Or maybe I'll just get EthOS.
