Title: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: Big0ne on December 21, 2013, 12:15:33 PM I've been wondering if shall I buy a new PC for mining or rather some built-for-mining-box?
My budget is 3k5USD. Thank you everybody. Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: TookDk on December 21, 2013, 12:25:57 PM For 3k5$ you can build a super scrypt mining rig:
Get a 1200W high quality PSU, e.g. Corsair CX1200 Get motherboard with 4 graphic slots Get 4 x ATI Radeon R9 R290x GPUs 4 GBGDDR5 (or simular). Then are you ready to mine scrypt at ~4MH/s Im sure you can find more info around the forum about picking the exact part. Happy mining. Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: jonanon on December 21, 2013, 12:32:25 PM It can definitely be a good idea but always remember the difficulty of mining your chosen coin can change so I would always plan and make very conservative estimates so you are not expecting too much too soon.

if you mine the right stuff at the right time you can get it down to 100 days or less :) Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining?

You can have a super fast rig for that price. :) Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: melds39 on December 21, 2013, 03:07:14 PM It'd be more profitable to just buy bitcoins.
Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: Minebeast on December 21, 2013, 03:35:42 PM I would for sure only focus on scrypt coins

Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: RB25 on December 21, 2013, 03:40:01 PM I would only recommend building a PC for mining if you were going to build a PC anyway and will just upgrade/add some parts to gain mining capacity.
Or if you are going to mine altcoins. Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: ezalex on December 21, 2013, 04:06:15 PM Hi
I using BTCs from some time but still not know much about mining I search on google too but not still exactly understand how its work? can anyone tell me its possible we just make LTC or BTC our own? what costs? is there any normal computer like P-4 computer can works? or specially designed devices required for all mining works? its possible to start create btc ltc and mining with under 10,000 US Dollars start up cost is there chances that we just lost all our investment without getting any ROI via mining work? waiting for friendly help take care Title: Re: Shall I buy a new PC for mining? Post by: bitpop on December 21, 2013, 05:40:13 PM No! Just buy coins and sleep on them trust me
