🔥 ASRock AMD BC-250 APU Single Board Computer 🔥
The Legendary "PS5 Mining Chip" – Perfect for DIY Steam Machines & AI ClustersGet your hands on the famous ASRock AMD BC-250 single-board computer! This unique hardware utilizes the exact same silicon architecture as the Sony PlayStation 5 (AMD Zen 2 CPU + RDNA2 Graphics) packed onto a compact, highly efficient motherboard with a massive 16GB of unified GDDR6 memory.This board is highly sought after by the tech community for recent breakthroughs that allow users to bypass the factory locks, unlocking up to 40 RDNA2 Compute Units via community Linux runtime patches—giving it raw graphical performance that rivals or beats a retail PS5!What is Included in This Listing:
1x ASRock AMD BC-250 Motherboard / APU Only (Clean, tested, and 100% fully functional).⚠️ IMPORTANT: What is NOT Included (Buyer Requirements):This is an enthusiast-tier barebone hardware component. To run this system, you must supply your own:
Storage (M.2 SSD): You will need to install your own M.2 storage drive.Power Supply (PSU): Requires a standard PC power supply with 12V PCIE connectors to power the board.Cooling: The integrated copper heatsink requires a 120mm high-airflow case fan blowing directly over it to prevent thermal throttling.Operating System & Configuration: This hardware does not natively run Windows desktop out of the box due to driver limits. Buyers typically install community-patched Linux distros like Bazzite, CachyOS, or SkillFishOS to easily trigger the 40 CU unlock via command scripts.Technical Specifications:
SoC: AMD Custom APU (Sony PlayStation 5 Silicon Architecture)CPU: 6-Core / 12-Thread Zen 2 ArchitectureGPU: AMD RDNA2 (Cyan Skillfish / gfx1013) – Capable of unlocking to 40 Compute Units via Linux driversRAM: 16GB Unified Blazing-Fast GDDR6 MemoryCondition & Testing Notes:Pulled cleanly from a fully functioning, climate-controlled ASRock 4U12G server chassis. Every board has been physically and electronically tested to ensure it is 100% stable under load before shipping.📦 Fast Shipping & Bulk Volume Discounts Available!I have 12 of these available from a cluster teardown. If you want to buy multiple units to build a multi-node AI server or Kubernetes cluster, take advantage of the tiered pricing volume discounts!⚠️ DISCLOSURE & RETURN POLICY:This is a specialized, experimental mining/enthusiast hardware component. Due to the high risk of user error regarding custom 12V power delivery, custom Linux kernel flashing, and improper cooling configurations, this item is sold strictly AS-IS with NO RETURNS. The board has been fully tested and verified working prior to shipment, but it is listed under "For Parts / Not Working" solely to protect against user configuration errors and hardware mishandling. Please ensure you fully understand how to deploy and configure the AMD BC-250 platform before purchasing.
