GIGABYTE GA-B250-FinTech (rev. 1.0) motherboard is ready for mining more at the expense of minimum. It offers 12 PCIe slots, two 12V AUX power connectors and even comes with GIGABYTE mining kit. Mining productivity can reach the highest number with minimum investment required. The Smart Fan 5 and various utilities help make the most of your mining system.
12 Native PCIe Slots and Dual 12V AUX Power Connector
GIGABYTE B250-FinTech is equipped with 12 native PCIe slots giving the miners the opportunity to mine with up to 12 GPUs at the same time for maximum performance. Also, it comes with two 12V AUX power connectors for PCIe slot making sure your system will always have the power it needs.
* When two or more graphics cards are installed, be sure to connect the power cable from the power supply to the PCIE_12V_1 or PCIE_12V_2 connector to provide sufficient current to the system and prevent damage to the devices.
Cost Saving Combination
The GIGABYTE B250-FinTech not only offers double the GPU support than standard motherboards but at the same time saves you money. Get the same mining performance without having to pay extra money for a second setup. Paying extra money for a second CPU, motherboard, HDD / SDD and memory kit can be costly. That's what makes the GIGABYTE B250-FinTech the ideal choice for miners!

GIGABYTE Mining Kit
Front Panel Switch Card
Mining racks are an open-case environment. They usually lack the support of Power ON/Reset buttons.This GIGABYTE module adds Power-On and Reset button on your system making your mining experience smoother.
3-in-1 PSU Power-On Adapter
Modern mining rigs require more than one power supply powering your system at the same time. With the GIGABYTE Power-On adapter you can now connect up to 3 different power supplies in the most simple way. A safer cheaper and easier way than ever before!
PSU is not included.
GIGABYTE Fine Tuned BIOS Mining Mode
This GIGABYTE exclusive mode elevates your mining efficiency to unprecedented levels. Simply select the BIOS Mining Mode and it will automatically update settings to maximize stability and compatibility with multi-graphicas configurations, making mining easier and more efficient than ever.
Smart Fan 5
With Smart Fan 5 users can ensure that their PC can maintain its performance while staying cool. Smart Fan 5 allows users to interchange their fan headers to reflect different thermal sensors at different locations on the motherboard. Not only that, with Smart Fan 5 more hybrid fan headers that support both PWM and Voltage mode fans have been introduced to make the motherboard more liquid cooling friendly.
- 6 temperature Sensors
- 4 fan pin headers
- All fan pin headers upgraded to hybrid fan headers
- Supports high current fans up to 24W (2Ax12V) with over-current protection
- Intuitive UI for fan control
Different models have different number of fan pin headers and temperature sensors. Smart Fan 5 function may vary by model.
All Hybrid Fan Pin Headers
- All Hybrid Fan Headers can automatically detect the type of cooling device whether it be fan or pump with different PWM or Voltage mode.
- Supports up to 2 amps with built-in overcurrent protection—a must for high-end high current fans.
New Smart Fan 5 Software
Choose from different modes, Quiet to Full Speed, to match your system usage scenario. For each fan or pump, you can use the intuitive fan curve to define trigger thresholds and corresponding fan speeds.
Interoperable Sensors and Fans
Each fan can be customized to operate at different speeds according to any defined temperature source input (except the CPU fan).
Fan Curve
Customize fan curves based on specific temperatures with the intuitive graphical UI.
Enhanced BIOS Interface
The enhanced BIOS interface also has the advanced features seen in the Smart Fan 5 UI, such as the ability to set triggers based on different temperature sensors on the board, fan curve definition and the temperature interval setting, which can prevent fan rotation noise caused by sudden temperature change—all without having to load Windows.
Realtek GbE LAN
Realtek Gbe LAN features cFosSpeed, a network traffic management application which helps to improve network latency and maintain low ping times to deliver better responsiveness in crowded LAN environments.
Diagnostic LEDs
Hardware Troubleshooting at a Glance
Onboard LEDs controlled by the system BIOS indicate if a malfunction is occurring, allowing users to quickly diagnose which major component (CPU/DDR/VGA/HDD) is malfunctioning so they may take action promptly.

GIGABYTE Patented Double Locking Bracket
Anti-Sulfur Resistor Design
Sulfur compounds in the air can penetrate tiny onboard resistors creating chemical change and causing these resistors to open or short. If either of these occurs the motherboard will fail to function. Equipping resistors with an Anti-Sulfur Design GIGABYTE gives Ultra Durable Motherboards a whole new meaning.
Anti-sulfur product: An alloy layer has been added to protect the silver layer and prevents the sulfurization reaction from taking place.
Without the anti-sulfur layer: The electrode terminals lack a protective layer, which means that oxygen or other environmental elements can penetrate the Ni (Nickel) layer causing a sulfurization reaction and degrade the ability for the electrode to conduct electricity properly.
High Quality Onboard Audio Design
Delivers high quality sound resolution and sound expansion to create the most realistic sound effects for professional gamers.

GIGABYTE APP Center
The GIGABYTE APP Center gives you easy access to a wealth of GIGABYTE apps that help you get the most from your GIGABYTE motherboard. Using a simple, unified user interface, GIGABYTE APP Center allows you to easily launch all GIGABYTE apps installed on your system, check related updates online, and download the latest apps, drivers, and BIOS.
System Information Viewer
GIGABYTE System Information Viewer is a central location that gives you access to your current system status. Monitor components such as processor, set your preferred fan speed profile, create alerts when temperatures get too high or record your system’s behavior; these are the possibilities of the System Information Viewer.
@BIOS
The GIGABYTE @BIOS app allows you to update your system’s BIOS from within Windows using a simple and slick graphical user interface. @BIOS can automatically download the latest version from the GIGABYTE servers or you can update your BIOS from a file on your computer. @BIOS also allows you to save your current BIOS to a file, recover your previous BIOS from an image and backup your BIOS to an image.
