Title: Making a decision, Litecoin or Bitcoin mining
Post by: julian_datminer on September 02, 2013, 06:00:50 PM
i wanna make my first budget Litecoin mining rig with 2 VTX3D RADEON HD7770 X-EDITION (1100Mhz GPU = ~150kHps and costs me 100Euros each)
i have some old motherboards, cpus, rams etc.
and my question is, will a 450W PSU handle the 7770's??
Or go for a 600W PSU??

And!!!

The big help i wanna here is...doing that LTC mining rig??

Or, buy 3-4 Asic Miner and doing BTC mining??

Thank You and have a Nice Day !! :D

You're probably better off going with the litecoin rig at this point, and you'd want the better PSU.

litecoin rig, because it's a bit better + you can jump to alt coins anytime as well.
