Best motherboard for mining

[shaheer001]

 As per my searching e z270p, z270a and z270e are good for mining, z270e has inbuilt WiFi so this is superior than other two,these three are common and working good as per my aspects.

The cheapest motherboard you can find that does the job for your needs flawlessly. Buying a very cheap used motherboard on ebay would be a great option, some will run up to 6 gpu's no problem.

You're right. You can find a fairly inexpensive option on ebay and he will cope with all the tasks assigned to him.

Mining mainly depends on the performance of the graphics card, and the requirements on the motherboard are not large. Mining motherboards generally value PCI-E slots and stability. Recommend Soyo SY-B85,This is good, you can check it out for yourself.

I've been using a combination of boards that I bought used from 2016-end of 2017.  Currently, with prices as low as they are on hardware I'm consolidating all my random_board_01 4-6 GPU rigs into 8-12 GPU rigs using Asus b-250 mining expert boards (30 to 50 usd on ebay used, 60 usd on amazon new) and 8gpu vedah frames (25 usd new on amazon) as I add new cards.  Just want to make configurations/maintenance a bit more uniform across the farm, to save time and a bit of electricity. 

Out of all the boards I've ever used for mining, this one has been the easiest to configure & maintain.  Rock solid and highly expandable.  Only real downside I've seen from it is lack of an m.2 slot, but I've never seen a real need for that on a gpu rig. 

I've thought about trying some riserless boards so I could ditch the headache of troubleshooting/finding bad risers...but just haven't done so.

My cards are RX580 and I need 7 slots

AsRock H110 PRO BTC+ (s1151, Intel H110) with 12 PCi-e 1x + 1 PCi-e 16x
Asus B250 MINING EXPERT (s1151, Intel B250)  with 18 PPCi-e 1x + 1 PCi-e 16x and 3 ATX 12v
P.S.  Asus B250 MINING EXPERT remains 12 slots for upgrade

FYI the 6-slot Gigabyte GA-H110-G3A boards can now be had for less than £25 here in the UK. That's a steal if you ask me. You can actually put 7 GPUs on them if you use a M.2-to-PCIe adapter.

Have been checking about this too, and I came across Asus B250 Mining Expert LGA1151 motherboard and It has 19 PCIe slots. I think you can check it out too, as the price looks friendly and can easily be ordered.

From where I sit.... using those "modern" motherboards with bunch of PCI-e slots and put over there all your cards is the same as to put all your eggs in one basket. Besides such boards, full of graphic cards, are quite greedy for power end require costly PSU. So, for me the better option is to have a few rigs equipped with AsRock H110 PRO BTC which, moreover, had  shown its reliability.
