Title: Mining Rig Specs
Post by: raubaut on April 23, 2013, 12:37:52 AM
Hey guys, thanks a lot for taking the time to read this.

Essentially I am looking to put together a 'bare bones' mining rig with the specs below.  Does anybody have any concerns or suggestions about this?  Would actually be mining PPCoin, not BTC.

Before placing the order just want to make sure that we haven't missed anything with the specs and that it will all work.  Of course, I also want to get the most out of my money.
