the specification is too good for mining. for mining are Celeron processor and 4GB RAM has been enough. maybe the casing not effectively removes a heat when running mining and for keeping to another part must open a casing it.
you are not reading what the op wants you should delete your post or correct it. Trading programs need ram and a good cpu . I have built a few for some people. the i7 8700 or the i5 8400 are decent for trading 16gb ram minimum a decent ssd or the optane setup all allow the trading to be fast enough. I assume he is bot trading. He can then run the 1070 in the background to pick up some coin. I built mine with i5 7600k 2 1080tis 1 500 gb ssd 16gb ram Please read what the op is asking and correct your post.

I am probably on the other boat, I converted all of my 1080 Tis and 1070 rigs to mega 11-13 GPU rigs when ASRock H110 came out. GPU count of 11 for 1080 Tis is due to PSU limitation, I am using Parallel 2400 watt PSU. I consolidated and used the same shoe rack as a frame so no extra expenses other then the cost of a new MB. All rigs are solid and now taking half the space on the shelf. I might add that I am using nVOC which is very stable as well.
multiple 8, 10 ,12 ,16 card rigs are fine. only 1x 12 card rig is not fine I like the onda b250 8 slot board with 6x 1080ti's hybrid evga or msi seahawk I have 4 of them. if a board dies I can pull the cards and go to 3 boards. If you only have 1x 12 card rig and the psu or the board dies you can be off line for days. If the op has 12 cards 2x 6 card are better If he is like you or me with many cards it is okay to go big. At the moment I have enough room on mobos to add 40 cards as I sold off a lot of 1070's

I would consider ruuning there after I do the 1 week at nicehash mining zec

Hmmm it seems there is nothing stopping canaan,bitmain, innosilicon, gmo, etc from also joining this patent alliance and making a miner that is 20% faster. Since its full hash power is for btc only and it hashes at 1/4 speed without asicboost, perhaps there will be a btc miner and a sha256 miner for bch and other sha256 coins going forward.
Would be nice to get the boost out in the open and across all the pools

Thanks all for the replies.
So I have money to build a 12 Rig. I do have an old gaming PC(not used it in the last 3 years though), It has a mother board which supports 6 slots IIRC.
So what I'm now planning is, purchase an entire new rig. And purchase GPUs and and additional PSU for the Old PC.
Any suggestions on the GPUs, I'm thinking of going with AMD 580. Or would it be better to make a rig with AMD and another with Nvidia?
Thanks again
Harder question to answer as cards are hard to find. If you find nvidia 1070's at under 500 or rx 580's at under 350 those are very good prices. I prefer nvidia but if I could get rx 580's for say 299 usd I would jump at that price.

@ yankees I have 3 units
he could configure it very nicely
a 8700 cpu 1 nvidia 1070 plat psu 32gb ram 16gb optane boost
for 1669.99

2 Rings with 6 GPUs each is better. In the work rigs are always failures. It's inevitable. If you disable 6 of the GPU you will get less damage than if you have a disabled rig with 12 GPU. Each trader knows that in order to minimize the risks, he / she needs to have several coins in his / her portfolio. Rig with 12 GPU equivalent to the fact that keeping all savings in the same coin.
Yeah multiple rigs are better the. One. Now if op was build 10 rigs he could do 12 card setups But for a 12 card setup two six’s are better then one twelve

is this website legit and trusted ? anyone has experience with them ? The items are sold out

Hey All,
Wanted to get a clarification on this before I go ahead and start building my Rig.
Does having a single Rig of same 12 GPUs(considering RX 580s) would be better profitable in long term or 2 Rigs with 6 GPUs each.
Thanks!
Two rigs

-ck what work is involved pool side to support AsicBoost?
The code to support it is in my public gits already. It needs to support a couple of new stratum messages and know how to handle an extra parameter on shares being returned. I look forward to pointing it at your pool.

So the STH review labels this as a mining rig ideal for remote data center deployment.
But how do you deploy something like this that isn’t even remotely rack mountable? Is the data center supposed to just leave a couple of these in the corner with some extension cords running to them?
Mining data centres typically use shelving rather than traditional 19" racks, so that is how you do it. These fit on a three foot shelf. They are about 31 inches . They can be clocked to use 1350 to 1800 watts. So at pushed clocks in a cheap power setup. 2 x 1800 = 3600 watts A 20 amp 240 volt circuit is 4800 watts derates to 3840 watts. This means 2 rigs per ciruit. A 30 amp 240 volt circuit is 7200 watts derates to 5760 watts Which is 4 of these clocked at 1400 watts It is nice to see that the flexible power usage is available with them. They would be dense which is a good feature. I really think that these would be nice if buysolar and I get our second solar array going. A simple 10 by 10 shed would allow three three foot wide racks each with 5 shelves. That would be 15 units. Pulling 21000 to 27000 watts. We could do two sheds and that would be all the array needs

This could be a good miner the company could end up being a good company.
The coin is too small the total hash rate is too low.
a 2.1th miner using 1300or 1400 watts for a 1420 th network = disaster.
to give a proper scale
the hash for btc is
26,070,479,913 gh so if someone sold a btc miner using 1300 watts it would mine at 37,243,542gh
or 0.0000349 watts a gh
so this miner will kill the network.
The only robust network besides btc/sha 256 is ltc/scyprt

a 13.5th model
bitmain wants 1915 + 100 to ship = 2015 if you have a coupon it is 1915
I can do 1825 ship it in a day to the usa for free
some flex in price but not much

So this algo is dead due to huge mining power. and what is going to happen with https://halongmining.com/shop/dragonmint-b29-blake256-miner/blake/decred the miner above is 2.1th the network is 1420th so 700 of these will be = to the network. What is going to happen to all other gpu algos? are we to see asics for every coin's algo?

again, I greatly appreciate all your input guys.
omg phil, thx for those links... you're a life saver. I will definitely go with the HP pdu and the c20 to c13 cords. The psus are the apw3++ (got them with the ants from bitmain)
Saturday we'll have the electrician come over and see what we can do. This will be set up in a friends basement I guess we'll have to wait and see the voltage lottery coming in from the street.
Any tips on how to set these up to be power cycle-able remotely? Is there a c20 smart plug that could work with these??? not sure how steady/reliable these S9s are... back in the day my S1 would go for months unattended. I guess I'll have to manually reboot them if nothing else. (which will suck cause my buddy's shop is across town)
I used to get power cycle pdus cheap on ebay not any more.

Sell me an L3+ with a power supply. I am in New Jersey.
I know a very good escrow.
philipma1957 oh wait thats me.
Not trying to be silly about the escrow but If you want to sell one to me for 1300 with a psu I will buy one and self escrow. _______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________
Most people won't want to do what you ask.
Say 1 btc in escrow with someone like me and then 3.5 btc trusting you.
I would offer to do this sale in 3x 1.5btc shipments if some wants to buy it all.
Then you the op won't have to trust me for beyond 1.5 btc at anytime.
My escrow fee is 2% so 2% of 4.5 btc = 0.09btc plus tx fees of maybe 0.001 for the 3 part sale.
I would be happy to sell you one directly without escrow to try and help prove myself and that I just want to get these sold, I really appreciate the opportunity, but 1.5 btc is still a lot for me. It may take me longer to sell them this way but at least then I won't have to trust a third party or pay a bunch of fees. Message me with your price and details then once we get the deal finalized I'll ask that you keep my post here updated to show any potential buyers that you sent me the payment upfront and I shipped the miner the very same day. If I can do a couple smaller deals like that hopefully it will give buyers enough confidence to buy the rest all at once and I can get these sold. It is okay I ordered 1 from bitmain. Also you don’t have to use me or anyone else for escrow. I understand you for not trusting me. Maybe someone will just send the btc upfront and trust you. I am out of this as an escrow.

Ouch, you bought your 1080ti at the worst timing. It will take years to reach ROI with that price.
Perhaps, since you only got 1 GPU for mining, why don't you start with Nicehash (that's the best place to start for newbies) to earn Bitcoins which can be used to buy another coin or cashout to buy your second GPU (secondhand).
However, $1,200 for a ($700) GPU is a bad deal.
Hello nc50lc, I use a 1080, not ti, that was just an example of price, because the coin I'm mining (zcash) is very good with Cuda by my tests, the nicehash was the one that would pay me less per day, week and month! I'm mining the zcash with the console using nanopool for mine, but today 03/08/2018 I'm trying miningpoolhub and I'm liking the result. It seems like I'm mining faster than nanopool One of the things you can do without buying more components, is finding promising coin and mine it. If you do that and hold that coin, after some time you can sell it and earn money from price difference. Also, you could find some coin with low difficulty and acceptable price, that after mining you could sell and start cryptocurrency trading. You can make some really nice money from it, and invest it in your mining rig.
yes, Eternu, I am mining zcash, many and many say that it is a great coin to mine because it will value a lot, and nvidia is good for mining zcash algorithm difficulty to give suggestions for you, if your mining using one GPU and your series GPU very expensive for this time.but you don't need sad, on the Cryptocurrency always have a surprise such fork or the price some coin is rise. I have any little tips corresponding with my experience when first time mining. 1. as much as possible care for your component especially VGA. the stable more important than speed(hashrate). 2. often to web calculator mining such a Coinwarz, you can look block reward, frequency block and you compare one coin with another coin but if you feel that's waste a time, you can using Nicehash. 3. correct in choosing an Algorithm, where your VGA series works great on that algo. 4. most important is Patience.
I do not understand very well about block reward, I know what kind of a prize the person earns, and the value is 10 zcash, but it must be hard for me that I'm mining as slowly as other people who have mining plots by my tests, the nicehash was the one that would pay me less per day, week and month! I'm mining the zcash with the console using nanopool for mine, but today 03/08/2018 I'm trying miningpoolhub and I'm liking the result. It seems like I'm mining faster than nanopool one thing I'm seeing, when I started mining zcash it was $ 430 and bitcoin was $ 11200 and now zcash is $ 320 and bitcoin is $ 9600, is this normal? to descend so much? Is it still advantageous to continue mining? I'm afraid that the coin I'm mining (zcash) will die sorry my bad english =) It is like the tide it goes up and down.
