Biostar announced a new AMD AM4 socket motherboard dedicated to crypto mining. The company stated the Biostar TB350-BTC is the first professional crypto mining motherboard designed specifically for the AM4 platform.
In addition to standard features found on other mainstream AM4 socket motherboards, such as support for AMD’s Ryzen processors, DDR4 support up to 3,200MHz, a single PCI-E x16 3.0 slot that runs at full speed for Ryzen CPUs and 8X for APUs, USB 3.1, and 7.1 Channel HD audio, this motherboard also includes a moisture proof PCB, electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, low resistance mosfets, and overvoltage protection.
Biostar touted the fact that it’s currently the only company offering both Intel- and AMD-based motherboards designed for crypto mining.
The Biostar TB350-BTC press release stated:
