Taiwanese electronics company Asus is making cryptocurrency mining easier for individual miners. The company announced the launch of its H370 mining master motherboard on Wednesday.
The new motherboard, unveiled on Wednesday, will support up to 20 graphic cards, or the hardware that lets computers produce advanced videos and images, that are essential to crypto mining. Additionally, it says the design makes it easier for users to plug in USB riser cables directly into the printed circuit board (PCB).
Many crypto miners build their own computers and the motherboard, one of the principle components of a computer, is an essential part of that process.
Asus’ approach here is going to make maintenance easier, ensure fewer PCIe disconnects, and more accurate diagnostics. This is a better format than just plugging in graphics cards to the motherboard via PCIe, like you would in a gaming desktop, the company says.
The company has provided an early preview of H370:
In ASUS’ press release, the computer hardware giant stated:
“ASUS B250 Mining Expert made ambitious cryptocurrency hobbyist farms more accessible and industrial-scale operations more efficient. It was hugely successful, with a sales volume that far exceeded expectations.”
The product will initially become available in the North American countries between July to September this year. ASUS has however not yet disclosed the price, but it’s predicted that the motherboard should be in the same $50 to $400 price range of similar boards made by other manufacturers that are already on sale.
