Title: Question regarding mining with RX 580
Post by: business360 on January 14, 2018, 07:40:47 PM
Hi All
I regularly buy ethereum to pay some bills and i usually lose around 15-20% for exchanger fee.
I was thinking i would save a little if i just mine the coins myself (not for making profit, but for myself to spend), in this case is it better to pay 15% exchanger versus mine myself ?
I got an offer to buy 8 XFX AMD RADEON 8GB for 499$ each and i thought the deal is a steal so i quickly bought them (all brand new in box)
Now i'm looking for a good motherboard for these 8, which would you recommend asus btc+ or asrock ?
And how do you guys think if you'd spend 2k a month ethereum and pay like 3-350$ fee, wouldn't it be better if i invest 10k and get that amount monthly (i'm in bay area san francisco, here electricity is around 16-23 cents kw)
Any advice would help a lot
