Im assembling a RIG with 6x RX 580

My goal is make about 2000 USD month!!!

Im thinking to put 2 RIG of 6x RX580 and 1 RIG 4x RX580.

3xProcessor i3 - about 500,00

3xSSD card 250 GB - about 450,00

3xMotherboards Biostar for 8 video cards input - about 400,00

16x RX 580 = 6400,00

6x fonts 1500W - about 2000,00

RAM memory cards x6 = 900

total investment - about 11.000,00

Any ideias and comments are welcome.

NOTE: prices can be lower, I put a margin up for error!!

I Need to make at least 2000,00

Go to www.whattomine.com (http://www.whattomine.com) it will show you right now with a guess of .127 electric and 16x 580 you would make about 1643 per month if everything stayed as it is right this second.

Personally, I would go with higher end gpu's, if it's within your budget to do so.  Only if you can get your hands on them at a reasonable price though.  I'm not saying go buy 24 1080ti's, because most expensive doesn't always equal best, quickest roi, or most efficient in energy usage. 

If you're just starting out, I would also mix them.  Don't mix cards in the same rig.  But if you can build two rigs within your budget, build one NVIDIA and one AMD ... Try different things.  Get exposed to everything that you can.  It's only going to help you in the long run. 

I wouldn't tell you not to buy the RX580's, but I'm going for higher end upfront, for longevity purposes. 

There are just so many variables to consider.  Do extensive research on every gpu that you are considering.

Making a 2000USD per month today could be achievable with at least 18-20GPUs, 16RX580 would only yield on 1800USD as per online calculator

What is a challenging is that the figures only valid at this very moment, and will eventually change tonight or tomorrow or the next days depending on the difficulties and coin price, so basically, your 2000USD target per month would probably go down and go up ;D

as of right now I have 4 rigs going, 5x rx 480 8gb,6x 1070 8gb and 5x 580 8gb SE and 2x r9 390 8gb gpus for a total of 18 gpus and I don't make make anywhere near 2k lol, would take more like 6x rigs of 6 gpus per rig to do that MINIMUM, it would be a bit over but that's a good thing, technically I have 20 gpus, but one I have to RMA and one just isn't hooked up atm, especially with douchehash coming back online and oddly enough profits going down which to say all in itself is kinda weird.

It just means that you mine wrong way.

That our the Pool hes in is stealing his Mhs

Might be a rather optimistic estimate for 2000usd per month. Sure if you invest your earnings into a coin that moons you will make it.

1 rig currently with the bitcoin downtrend can not earn you 1000 per month, unless it's a 1080ti rig, maybe some pumped coin can give you that in the short time

In the light of recent events it is easier to buy Bitcoin himself or altcoins and "ride a roller coaster".
"3xSSD card 250 GB - about 450,00" - here this point for rig in general is not clear. You only need to put the system here and the miner ... Why the new 250GB SSD? Enough of any old hard drives or SSD 32/64GB.

Oh, no. Only Windows takes 40GB.
And how did you count 2000$?
2000/30days/16Cards=4.16$ Yeah ok. In June 2017.

Why not invest in an Obelisk (or two) for Siacoin?

Yes, the price has gone down a lot for SIA today but I'm sure it will rise again - wouldn't take it rising too much to easily make $2000...

I do not know how you use your OS. I have Windows 10 with the latest updates weighing 17GB. And notice this on the work computer, and not on the rig.

Others have already talked about how much you can potentially make.  Once you get your rigs up and running you need to be on the constant lookout for profitable coins so you can switch if needed.  And to minimize down time, get yourself a Power Supply Tester.  They are like $15 USD and will save you so much time when troubleshooting.  Once your rigs are configured, and if you are using Windows 10 you will need to DISABLE Windows Updates.  This cannot be done through settings or control panel anymore. 

Good luck!

That's all is clear but anyway there are a lot of reasons to have an optimal 120Gb drive for ordinary 8*GPU rig. It is possible to have 60Gb but not very comfortable, if you use many miners, some kind of algo switching software, frequently experiment with drivers etc.
If the guy want's to get 2000/month he will definetly need that :)
But he can also run 8Gb flash with prepared linux .... and forget about 2000/month  ;D

With the largest market capitalization of 100 to 250 pips per day. Then you can earn $ 10-100 per day, only with a capital of $ 2000's only. Plus, you can do anywhere and anytime (PC, Android, Tab, ...

if you calculated 2000/months yesterday , that is would be around 1300$ with today coin prices  :) as most of the coins lost they 30% value in the past day :(

You can buy equipment to earn 1000000 $ per month. Build your own power plant and nothing to worry. But you need to have a lot of money. Now all of cryptocurrency lost about 30% of its value. This means that some days your aim has moved to 30% further. I think that if now all the money you will buy coins then you will have a chance to earn more and faster.
