Title: New to mining
Post by: SC46 on April 07, 2017, 03:54:19 PM
Hi,

I have some components and i was thinking to start mining.

I already have : AMD Athlon II x3 CPU, 2 Gb RAM, and the HDD.

I want to buy the following components :
ASRock 970 Extreme4 Motherboard
RX 480 8gb GPU
Segotep Nuclear 520W PS
2 Gb RAM.

Is it worth it to mine with this build ? For now, i want to do it just for fun, test the fields since i dont know a lot about mining(still reading).

If you want to recommend me different components im open to suggestions.

Thanks,

better than sitting there not doing anything.  Good to tinker.  Anyway up to 4gb and you are good.
