back to my point about mining, you can have your opinion, but you're sorta implying that I should not be mining.
ACCUMULATE
@SchloppyDoggo what do you recommend for mining?
hardware wise
@.PunishedShlomo What do you want to mine
@.PunishedShlomo i mine zcash with 6 and 12 card rigs. cant seem to get the b250 asus mining expert mobo to register 19 cards. others have the same problem. in terms of gpus i buy any 1060-1080 i can buy but never the ti's cause they have lower h/s doing zec. it depends on what you want to mine but i think zec has a future as a privacy coin. its got good devs which is why i like it.
i got 2 antminer s9s and i dont really like them. i'd rather gpu mine.
you got more options with gpu rigs imo so its a better investment.
ok
reeeeee moar miners
we need more GPU miners
keep the GPUs more expensive
Keep poorfags away from gaming

im thinking about getting together a HDD miner just for fun
lolol
@SchloppyDoggo thoughts on this mining rig I want to build, the budget is $3,000-$4,000 with the lower end price being more likely what i will be able to pay. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Lalna_Rocks/saved/4TGYrH
I plan on getting 2 more 1070's besides the 2 on this list
@.PunishedShlomo Are you using it only for mining?
yes
Ok then
You really don't need an i5
or 16gb ram
or an ssd
or that cooler
Your CPU won't really be doing anything
And don't bother with windows just don't activate it
KB too expensive for something youll never really be using
How will i connect to pools then or do I do that remotely, im a bit of noob at this side of things
You only need to be spending big bucks on the GPUs
Everything else can be very low tier
(except for PSU)
definently the psu, a friend of mine had a not so great psu, that he thought was a psu and it caught on fire
@.PunishedShlomo well, i got to warn you about that asus b250 mobo, its a bit of a bitch so just be prepared for some troubleshooting. i recently set one up about 2 weeks ago and ive had loads of problems with it. im sticking with 6 card rigs now.
Get a platinum PSU
Celeron or Pentium for CPU
