B250 BTC-12P Mining Motherboard (Intel 6th/7th Gen) LGA 1151 Motherboard with 12 PCIe Slots, VGA+DVI, MSATA, 2*DDR4, USB 3.0 for Miner (BTC/ETH/ZEC/ETC)

I’m a Music Producer I like How Fast it Boots Up I haven’t Had Any PROBLEMS At all It’s A Older Model so the Bios is like a Old Office set gig but if you know what your doin you can figure it out IT over clocks my CPU just fine my based speed is 3.50ghz but it hit higher … I Got it to Replace A Motherboard That Had Some Problems Goin on But it feels the same after installing this mother Board Haven’t tried it On Games yet But I Thinks it’s pretty Good For the price It handles Great for my Work I Simply Just Wanted an New Motherboard That functioned Correctly honestly Like I Said it’s worth the price I THINK IT WILL BE OK For Gaming as long as you have a Good GPU you should be fine No Problems for me OVER HERE THANKS Amazon

There is no support or manual in how to use this or what settings you need to use in order to make it function well for its advertised purpose. If you have used other multi-PCIx boards, you may well be able to figure it out, if you are a beginner, you will probably be frustrated. This replaced what I would call a "Highly recommended" ASRock model, however those have been insanely priced and I needed a replacement that would utillize the processor I bought to run on the ASRock. Beware on that issue -- Intel has forced incompatibility between various generations of chips and motherboards so you must verify compatibility!

I purchased one of these boards and it wouldn't boot with both CPUs. I tried all the normal DIY tech tricks before contacting the manufacturers tech support. I tried to boot with 1 CPU and that worked. So I moved it to the other CPU slot and it worked there too. But if you add the 2nd CPU to either slot, it won't boot at all. It gives a couple meaningless error codes (there's no manual and nothing to download) and then it's bricked. I tried 1 stick of RAM. I tried 2 sticks. 3 sticks. 4 - 5 -6 -7 -8 sticks or RAM. 1 CPU - 2 CPU - 1 video card - 2 video cards - 1 old video card - 1 new video card. Nothing works.So I contacted Amazon and asked for tech support. Amazon got me in touch with the manufacturer quickly. But their tech support was just some person asking me to go back and repeat all the steps I had already attempted on my own. I was expecting some REAL technical support - like a BIOS update or a user manual. I was hoping for a REAL technical support person to offer me some REAL (ya know TECHNICAL) support. Instead I get some person asking me to swap hardware around. I already did that before I ever contacted them. I'd expect a manufacturer to offer some real solutions besides "swap hardware around to different slots until you fool it into booting" They asked me to disassemble it and make a VIDEO of how I assembled it and put it together!!! It's an Extended ATX motherboard with dual 2011-3 CPU's. There is NO WAY to screw it up. The stuff literally snaps into slots and there's only 1 way that each piece can snap in. You CAN'T screw it up. The manufacturers all follow a standard and the components have been "idiot proofed". You CAN'T assemble anything backwards. It won't FIT. Yet, their "tech support" person is asking me to make a video to verify I assembled it correctly. Okay - frustrated as I am - I'll tear it apart AGAIN and make a video of me assembling it. I go to upload the video and there's a 10mb limit. That's when I threw my hands up. After weeks of going back and forth with some useless "tech support expert" I asked Amazon to RMA the darn thing and refund my money. This was nothing but weeks of frustration and a waste of my time.

Couldnt find a MOBO anywhere for an i7 7700. Atleast at a reasonable price. This one fit the bill, even though it states its for mining with the extra GPU slots. did not come with a mounting bracket on the back on the cpu , so i had to use one from an older pc. Only reason for 4 stars

doesn’t come with an up shield or ANY screws, only has ONE fan port(seriously?) everything is in an inconvenient place, all around just awful, don’t buy this
