Title: New Miner here... Did I forgot something ?
Post by: EldamRy on September 18, 2017, 02:12:52 AM
Hello,

I just started to mine and I bought new stuff to get my rig. I just bought new stuff :


In my main computer:

  • 1 Gigabyte GTX 1080

For my rig :

  • Mobo : BIOSTAR TB250-BTC
  • Pross: Celeron G3900 @ 2.80 GHZ ( socket 1151)
  • Ram: 1x 4 GIG DDR4
  • PSU:Rosewill - BRONZE Series - 1000-Watt  
  • HDD: 120gig normal, was in my old computer
  • OS:  W7
  • Graphic card : none for now... my plan is to buy 4 or 6 GTX 1070  ( 2 later this week )
  • GPU RISER: 4X AGPtek PCI-e 1X to 16X Slot Riser Card


Do I need Powered Riser ? Someone told me that I don't need it now because I don't have enough GPU and I use a TB250-BTC motherboard


I use NiceHash to mine some Bitcoins for now and MAYBE when I'll get more GPU my plan is to switch to Zcash because I use NVidia Cards

Yes you forgot that this is BITCOIN section ..GPU rigs are only for Alt's...
Mod might move your post there..

But you're on the right track..good luck

Very wrong indeed.

OP yes you forgot something: you forgot to check whether bitcoin mining can be done with GPU today; it cannot meaningfully be mined without an ASIC miner.

I would recommend ASIC miners over cloud mining every day of the week. Cloud mining just has to go through so many middlemen for you to make a profit. Everything just takes so much longer cloud mining. Especially considering the D3 miner makes about 2k a month mining DASH and the miner can be as cheap as 1450 (lowest I've seen) or closer to 3k, but still, the return on investment is there

I do not have that much of technical background but can understand if someone make me understood in simple way. Want to know how to mine Bitcoin or other digital coin which have can give me at-least a $100 income per day. So, give me the suggestion of hardware and software that are required for mining the bitcoin. I can afford only $1000 initially.

I mine BTC with NiceHash for now ;)

I believe that what he was trying to say it that is mining with GPU and it's deposit directly into nicehash wallet in btc, but he still mines gpu scripts like daggerhashimoto and cryptonight etc but it gets converted into BTC by nicehash and then deposit.
