Post by: RallyBird on July 13, 2017, 07:00:18 PM
Hi,

Because I'm new here, first off all I want to say Hello to everyone.
Now let's get down to business;)

If you guys gonna be so kind and take a look on that rig (that I planning to build)
and give me some tips/suggestions what I can change or maybe its ok how it is now.

6 x EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC Gaming "Black Edition"
ASUS Prime Z270-P, Socket-1151
Corsair HX1200, 1200W PSU
Intel Celeron G3930 Kaby Lake Prosessor
Kingston A400 120GB 2.5" SSD
Crucial 8GB 2133MHz DDR4 (CT8G4DFD8213) UDIMM

For now i want to use this rig for zcash.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Did you manage to build this rig? How are those EVGAs for mining?

I have over 50 EVGA 1070 8GB 6 cards rigs running.  They run great.  EVGA 1070 8GB SC edition has 1 8 pin plug instead of 2.  Not sure if that one is the same.  I know FTW is 2 - 8 Pin Plugs

Yes they are the same, I have some "Black Edition" ones.
So they have 1 8pin, stay cool and have really low consumption, best 1070 I have.

Skip that motherboard, better and easyer to settup is some btc boards, like some biostar TB250-BTC or asrock btc pro.
And for mining is better to go on some palit or gainward with realy good cooling.
Other components are ok.
