Its going to take multiple rigs to hit 15 mh/s with script coins.

15000 is alot to start.  The best card right now is the R9 290x, although the cost is very high due to high demand.  It can hash about 900 kh/s. You would need about 16-17 of those.  They draw 300 watts each, so you would most likely need 6 motherboards with 3 cards each and 6 1200w PSUs.  If you're doing this at home, you probably need more circuits on your electrical panel as well.  Each one of those rigs would need to be on their own 15A 120v circuit.

Happy mining!
