I started out a month ago studying building a mining rig and is it really worth it,I have came to the conclusion that it is worth it even though you get lots of negative feed back which is common in anything.My build is going to be a small build.I am going to start out small because i still am learning with that said it will be a 2-3 gpu mining rig,I will list a parts list below.But knowing how i am i could end up spending more.
Motherboard: AsRock H81 PRO BTC $160
processor: Intel celeron G1840 $45
Memory: 4GBDDR3 $20
Power supply: 1200 w seasonic platinum $260
GPUs: 3xGigabyte GTX 1060 windforce OC $259.95 each
Boot Device: 60GB SSD or USB stick(linux) $5-$35
case build or buy: $35-$200
The above list might change i bought the motherboard but still have to buy other parts or see what i already have on my quad core i build in 2007.I am open for suggestions or help,my power supply is only around 450w in my old pc not sure if its big enough most likely not.some old pictures of the beast back in the day lol
I
anyways maybe i can use some of the old fans or something wish the motherboard worked it was a good board.
looking forward to the feedback
thanks for now.
