Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: bathrobehero on August 29, 2016, 07:41:22 AM Based on current difficulty you'd need 160 Mh/s for 1 ETH a day:

Thanks a lot Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: fusion0389 on August 30, 2016, 01:30:57 AM According to my math, depending on where you source your parts you can get it under 2k, around 1700, but like i said, your results may vary.
Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: Charloz24 on August 30, 2016, 01:49:41 AM Don't forget that a rig that do 1 ETH/day will probably just do 0,6 eth/day in a month or so...
Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: PovertyByte on August 30, 2016, 02:04:01 AM Crypt0 on youtube claims to pump 1 eth a day with 2 R9 295x2's, and maybe 1 or 2 other GPU's on the rig he got.

Cheapest Mining Hardware to use... You can find R7 370s for US$90-$100 (less if you look hard), and they do ~15Mh/s OC'd to 1150/1500. 2 rigs, 5 cards in one and 6 cards in the other would give you ~1 eth/day. By the time you add the cost of motherboards, CPU, etc., you'd need about $1500 in hardware.

DAG Increase? I'm not all that in tune with the behind the scene stuff going on in the ETH world... Please pardon my ignorance...

It's raising constantly Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: Strongkored on August 30, 2016, 08:28:25 PM To make that 1 ETH a day you will need to invest about $2000 USD. $2000 USD just for equipment? its will need a long time for ROI, cause need to pay electricity cost, with ETH price right now approx $10 USD need 200-300 day to get ROI, but if the ETH price going down will take more time Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: adaseb on August 31, 2016, 07:23:00 AM To make that 1 ETH a day you will need to invest about $2000 USD. $2000 USD just for equipment? its will need a long time for ROI, cause need to pay electricity cost, with ETH price right now approx $10 USD need 200-300 day to get ROI, but if the ETH price going down will take more time Yeah but there is no other investment out there that even comes close. If you buy Antminers your ROI is even longer. If you keep it in your Savings account, you will pretty much lose money due to inflation over time.

Cheapest Mining Hardware to use... Today you need around 175-180 MH/s. For that you need around 8-9 video cards (21.5MH/s for Sapphire 380X Nitro). Also, I found something like this in ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/180-MH-s-ETH-Ethereum-Mining-Rig-6X-AMD-Radeon-R9-390-8-GB-GPUs-/152193508530. Of course is a huuuge price for the rig, but you can "steal" the information so you can build it by your own. Good luck, Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: DrX on August 31, 2016, 10:15:54 AM You can do it with 10x7950, 80-100$/pcs, used...
then you need at least 2x1250w PSU, 200$ each. and look for 2xmotherboards with 5 pcie slots or more, maybe H81 Pro BTC if you can find them somewhere. 4 gigs of ram each board and cheapest cpu you can find.... You should get all that for 1500$ Title: Re: Budget Mining Rig For 1 Ether/Day Post by: adaseb on August 31, 2016, 11:22:39 AM You can do it with 10x7950, 80-100$/pcs, used... then you need at least 2x1250w PSU, 200$ each. and look for 2xmotherboards with 5 pcie slots or more, maybe H81 Pro BTC if you can find them somewhere. 4 gigs of ram each board and cheapest cpu you can find.... You should get all that for 1500$ Yeah he could do that, its what I did back in January. But driving around the entire city just to buy 1 GPU wasn't worth it. And those 7950 are hard to find for even $100 these days, let alone 10 of them.
