Title: Building rigs to sell on ebay might be the real pro strat... 8x 1050 rig $4.5k! Post by: Newminer27 on February 15, 2018, 08:43:02 PM So if youve seen my posts in recent days you would know that I recently built a 5x GTX 1050 2GB rig and have a 980ti in the mail to max out my motherboard gpu slots. Now I know its a strange rig config but thats beside the point. I was just looking on ebay at prebuilt mining rigs and holy shit the prices people are paying for these are insane, even considering current gpu costs. Heres a link to a sold listing for an 8x 1050 rig that some idiot payed 4500 dollars for... https://www.ebay.com/itm/8-GPU-GTX-1050-Crypto-Coin-Mining-Rig-upto-100MH-s-1150sol-Zcash-Monero/152885781818?hash=item2398b3e53a:g:iWoAAOSwZoZaby-H
Now i know this rig has 2 more cards than mine, but one of my cards is a 980ti which is worth about the same as 3 1050 2gb cards lmao. Maybe instead of mining Ill just start building rigs for resale haha. For context, my rig cost about 1200 dollars for all the parts.. this seems quite lucrative haha Title: Re: Building rigs to sell on ebay might be the real pro strat... 8x 1050 rig $4.5k!
