Hello guys, i need a help from you. I am going to buy a mining machine with following specification,

Core i7 7700K
MSI B250M Bazooka
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 Rams (8GB x 2)
1TB HDD
128GB SSD
CyberPower Water Cooling kit for processor
Cyber Power Kiros 650 Side Tempered Glass Case RGB
CyberPower RGB Fans With Casing Supported Controller
800 Watt PSU 80+
XFX AMD RX 580 8GB GTS XXX Edition

Can you tell me that is it worthy to mine Zcash and XRP and i will cover the cost of it in short time or not? Need suggestion guys.

Here you can play around: https://whattomine.com/

Just enter your cards and press calculate.
If you want to know the reward per day, week, month for a specific coin, just click on the coin and enter your hashrate.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe XRP is not mineable. It is an internal token that is only kind of distributed to the public. Mostly they release a bunch every year, which leads to a massive selloff

You are correct, XRP is not mineable.

I'm sorry to say that, but I suggest you to do a lot of research before mining

This is your GPU XFX AMD RX 580 8GB GTS XXX Edition
You can mine with ethereum or any other Ethhash algo, but for now, ethereum is more profitable with this card.

Oh thanks for update, some years ago there was a project running worldcommunitygrid if i am not on mistake and they were offering ripple for running software in computers so i though it may be mine, well i will go with eth as this is much profitable with this card, i have no electricity problem and its free so i will use this for eth.

With only one card you won't make much but still is a good start. I see you are going to buy a gaming PC and maybe when you are at school or at work you will let it mine, also you will let it mine by night.

It is good for a start but in no way you are going to cover the cost of such PC in a short amount of time with only one graphic card.

Yes i am trying to start with this so i may have some know how about the mining system, i will upgrade or change with the 6 cards mining rigs which can be suitable and will help me to cover the cost as well. I have only one benefit of the free electricity.

For a long time you will pay for such components. ZEC mining is more profitable on Nvidia GPU. I think at least 3 years will have to work with this rig.

Op gonna lose some money. "I see coin. I want a coin, I try coin by mine it. I dumbo. No like searching googles" man get out of here w your shitpost.

Also ur "mining machine" couldn't mine it's way out of 1+1.

This is not a mining machine, but a gaming computer. Why buy Core i7 for mining? These investments in mining will never pay off.
If I were to build a gaming computer, I would take Core i5 and GTX 1070 instead of Core i7 and AMD RX 580. And instead of 128GB SSD I would take SSD M.2. It is not much more expensive, but much faster.

Even if you're trying to make a setup that mines on the side and is also capable of gaming, it doesn't make sense to put a liquid cooler on an unlocked processor that happens to be running on a B250 board that isn't capable of overclocking the CPU- why not just get an unlocked motherboard for a bit more and/or drop the liquid cooler? From what I see with the specification you went to cyberpowerpc.com and configured a system for mining with the name of the parts and unnamed liquid cooler. Even if you're just trying to get a gaming PC, Cyberpowerpc is insanely overpriced. I honestly don't even know why people use the site.

If you're looking to seriously mine, drop the i7 and put in a Pentium and get a board with more x16 slots, keep the stock Pentium cooler and look at getting a better PSU and more GPUs. What you're posting right now will not break even in a reasonable timespan or at all. If you had selected the RX 580 option in Nicehash you would've seen quick enough you won't be making much relative to the cost of the machine you posted here.

Not only the thing should be considered even though the card is capable on mining most altcoins but it wont really be enough to cover up the expense or electricity.This is a gaming pc where op decide to make it use on crypto mining but i would say it wont really be profitable no matter which side you would go,having 1 VC isnt a sensible thing to do unless if you do this for the sake of hobby but when you are seeking profitability then its not possible with this set up.

Oh thank you for your suggestions, i got too much information by starting this post. I also google it but get some useful replies from you my seniors, I thought core I7 can be the good one for mining but i think this doesn't matter for mining but can be good for gaming. GTX 1070 is much costly here in my country. I will try to get the one for me soon.
