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.

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

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

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.

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?

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.
