I set out to remove my Ivy bridge pentium dual core chip in a 12 GPU chinese B75 mining motherboard just to gain a little bit of efficiency and CPU hashrate, unfortunately I was unable to get a solid 12 cards registered after the conversion, so we swap over to a B250 board and a Pentium G 4560T instead on the 12 card RTX 3060 mining rig!
