Hello, I'd like to know the feeling of specialists about this motherboard. 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.

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.

Seems to be the ASUS version of the Biostar board xlee linked and Phillip has mentioned using in some of his 4-card rigs, except older chipset.

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!
