BIOSTAR Intros TZ590-BTC DUO Mining Motherboard | TechPowerUp
 
BIOSTAR today introduced the TZ590-BTC DUO, a feature-packed motherboard for crypto-currency mining setups, based on the Intel Z590 chipset, and supporting 10th- and 11th Gen Core processors in the LGA1200 package. The board puts out a total of eight PCI-Express 3.0 x1 slots, all from the Z590 PCH, besides a PCI-Express 4.0 x16 slot wired to the CPU, and four M.2-2280 slots. One of these is PCI-Express 4.0 x4 and wired to the CPU, while the others are Gen 3, and from the PCH. With M.2 to PCIe adapters already in the wild, you can install up to 12 graphics cards on this board. Connectivity options on this board include some legacy ports, including D-Sub for video from the iGPU, besides HDMI; and a PS/2 keyboard port. There is also an unusually high number of SATA ports, at 10 of them, besides the four M.2 NVMe. So you can also farm Chia at scale while you mine. BIOSTAR didn't reveal pricing.
 
Hopefully for miners this card will be competitively priced.

    Finally a decent motherboard with support for an affordable LGA 1200 CPU.

    Biostar? Looks like a cheap fire hazard to me. Biostar has no pedigree and they propose you stress that with heavy mining work?

    Because people still use them, particularly keyboards.  Ever had a problem where your USB ports aren't working right or not at all?  Think your problem might be bios related?  That is when you may need a PS/2 keyboard.  Heck, I still have a PS/2 Keyboard and mouse for a "just in case" situation.

    I had a Biostar LGA775 board back in the day that was considered one of the best overclocking boards at the time.  I am still surprised that they're around, but they can put out decent products from time to time.
