[/list] Thanks It links to five pages that have answers for you on hardware and software to use in 2019/2020. Title: Re: New to mining Post by: MATHReX on April 18, 2020, 05:34:34 AM I hope you already know that mining has not been profitable for a while now.
Still, If you want to get started with it. Start slow. A motherboard with more than 6 PCIe slots is preferable, cheapest Ryzen CPU, 4GB RAM, 60 GB SSD should be fine. Do not cheap out on the PSU and get Gold rated or better. Corsair RM1000X is good if you are serious about expanding your set-up slowly. I'll suggest going for GTX 1080ti which can be grabbed for $450 second-hand in a good condition. Once you have all the parts, it's pretty similar to assembling your PC. Title: Re: New to mining Post by: adaseb on April 19, 2020, 05:13:28 AM Right now before you get started you need to realise that there is little to no amount of profit to be made from mining. Basically with an average cost of $0.10kwh, you make $0 per day after you subtract electrical costs.
If you got free or very cheap power, then you can make a few dimes a day. However gone are the days of making $5/GPU/day like we had in 2017/2018. Right now it would be best to just invest the $2000 in either BTC or ETH and just wait a few months years and save yourself the hassle of setting up mining rigs. If you are going to mine anyways then at least just hold the coins and sell when they start rallying. Not worth it to sell them right now due to the low prices. See what happens after the covid19 mess is over.
