Title: $2000 to Spend on Scrypt Mining Rig. Any Ideas?
Post by: imtiax on December 15, 2013, 07:36:06 AM
Hi.

I live in Canada so I mainly buy my stuff from www.newegg.ca www.ncix.com

I live in an Apartment and our Electricity is free so I have been thinking about starting mining Scrypt Coins such as WorldCoins and LiteCoins and so on. Yes I am aware that Scrypt ASICs may come out in a few months, but I just want to mine them for fun.

I am currently mining on my PC that has a 6870 at 300kh/s.

What would be the best GPU to build?

As many of you are aware, the prices of Radeon GPU's have sky rocketed, so I am not sure.

Any suggestions on what GPU would get me the best bang for my buck.

I will eventually end up using this new rig as a gaming PC when Scrypt Mining becomes less profitable

Where i come from i can find used 5970's for a price less than 200$. I think it's a good deal.
