Using ASUS B250 ATX Mining Motherboard is still relevant in 2021?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes! it is very useful to use ASUS B250 Mining Expert Motherboard to solve complex algorithms. On 1st Jan 2016 bitcoin value was $435\/bitcoin,&nbsp; today the same is $34,000\/bitcoin. Now you must be wondering why I didn&#8217;t get onto the money-making train back then. If it was easy to mine cryptocurrency value wouldn&#8217;t have raised. Also, it is not going to stop at this rate.. it is going to go further high. Initially, GPU&#8217;s were meant for gamers, when cryptocurrency took flight GPU prices were skyrocketed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ASUS B250 Mining Expert Motherboard is packed with 19PCIe slots (18 PCIe x1 Slots and 1 PCIe x16 slots on board), which no other competition offers. You can add individual 19 graphic cards. It has triple ATX12V power delivery which separates 19X PCIe slots into 3 groups. Each group has a dedicated 24pin (24-pin ATX12V Power connector) for stable power delivery. Also, there are 19 individual voltage stabilizing decoupling capacitors that provide ample power delivery for your GPUs. With its ultra-low-noise, you can mine 24X7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It comes with PCIe slot State Detection for quick and easy troubleshooting. As soon as you switch on, the self-test screen will displays the status of all slots graphically. With this, you can easily debug or troubleshoot the problem. Afterthought thru ASUS has made miner&#8217;s life easy by providing Mining Mode in its BIOS. by default it will in an enabled state so that you need not fiddle much in settings to get maximum performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.PCMRlabs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/1.-ASUS-B250-Mining_006-1024x585.jpg\" alt=\"ASUS B250 MINING EXPERT, Use ASUS B250 ATX Mining Motherboard for the best results\" class=\"wp-image-217\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It supports 14nm 1511 socket Intel CPUs like Celeron\/i3\/i5\/i7 processors (6th\/7th Generation Intel). The company says selected Intel CPUs supports Intel Turbo boost technology 2.0.&nbsp; You will find 2 DDR4 (2400Mhz) Memory slots where you can upgrade RAM up to 32GB.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ASUS B250 ATX Mining Expert Motherboard has built-in Intel Gigabit Ethernet which gives better throughput and optimum performance. LAN-Guard technology which is exclusive to ASUS has advance coupling technology that gives complete protection against static electricity and lightning strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we compare this board with the competition, this board is very pocket friendly. As it uses only 1 CPU for 19 GPUs. where other brands use 2 or more CPUs. As per lab test done at the company, with 16 GPUs they could get up to 342MH\/s hash rate, with 19 GPUs up to 407MH\/s&nbsp; hash rate. The point to note here is they have done the testing with a specific configuration and lab environment. What does this mean to you? You get to save more money! and mine cryptocurrency a lot faster. Compared to traditional 6 PCIe slot motherboards B250 Mining expert provides $1.83 mega hash generation potential<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Box_Contents\"><\/span>Box Contents:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.PCMRlabs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/1.-ASUS-B250-Mining_007.jpg\" alt=\"ASUS B250 MINING EXPERT\" class=\"wp-image-219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.PCMRlabs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/1.-ASUS-B250-Mining_007.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.PCMRlabs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/1.-ASUS-B250-Mining_007-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.PCMRlabs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/1.-ASUS-B250-Mining_007-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pros_Cons_of_ASUS_B250_ATX_Mining_Motherboard\"><\/span>Pros &amp; Cons of ASUS B250 ATX Mining Motherboard<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1.
