BIOSTAR TB85

[SuperDerpBro]

Are these boards any good if you can get a new one cheap? I'm reading a lot of reviews on newer Biostar mining boards being pretty trash and even catching fire!

Looking to get a 6 card rig set up as cheap as possible for ROI reasons. Would just buying any cheap board and 2 of these work..

or would that just be asking for headaches?

Thanks

youre better off with an asus z270a prime

around the same price and a much better board. Plus if you know what you're doing it can support 9 gpus

Asus z270a is more than double the price here (Canada)..

TB85 is 75 CAD right now

Good luck finding them in stock. Maybe canada has a bunch in a wharehouse somewhere

Edit: looks like they’ve become easy to find again. As Newegg has them for $50

few on eBay too

EDIT: Question remains. Will it set my house on fire? lol :/

Probably gonna go with a ROG STRIX B250H (135 CAD). I cant bring myself to buy Biostar even if it is only $75 CAD right now.
