Title: Bitmain - Antminer D3 setup
Post by: KossJG on August 28, 2017, 08:09:49 AM
I was recently able to purchase three Antminer D3 ASICS processors that will be arriving sometime in November of this year (I think I was in on the second batch). I have kind of thrown myself to the wolves in terms of getting started in the mining. I have never setup a rig before, however; I am confident that with the aid of the internet, and forums such as this, I will have no trouble getting my rigs up and running.

What I am curious to know is the peripheral equipment that will be needed in order to get my rigs going. I realize I will need to purchase a power supply and all sorts of other things. I am just wondering if there is anyone out there that can shed some light on what exactly I will need to purchase, and I where I might be able to find it. Also, What do you guys think would be the best mining OS to use?

Thanks a bunch!

From the hw-side you will need a psu and a lan-port.
You can prepare yourself by looking at the tutorials for other AntMiners.
It is a bit different from gpu-mining but the antminers are almost same.
voskcoin on youtube made a good one for L3+

the gui is same and these miners have a preconfigured OS.
