My motherboard only got 2 pcie shots 

I will built a mining rig when graphics card price will go down again.... Currently everyone selling rx570/rx580 for more $600-$700... thats crazy!! I got lucky I found small local computer shop who is selling it for normal price and it was the last piece...

Hi, I have a gaming pc but don't play games on it anymore so I decide to mine altcoins with it... So my question is will my PSU able to run 2 graphics card ?

I have Amd Rx470 4gb and just got rx570 4gb and is still in the box...(Got it for 350$ and was last pc)

Here's my specs:
PSU: corsair 550w
Ram: 8gb
Processor: i7-4790
HDD: 2tb

I am not gaming anymore just mining and regular pc use watching movies and youtube stuff...
So is this PSU suitable for mining with these two cards?


I have BIOS mod on rx470  and I am not going to mod my new rx570

I am new at overclocking and under clocking so here's my afterburner settings

Yes I wanna know if my PSU can handle 2 graphics card or can't

I built my PC 3 years ago and these are the specs
i7-4790
Ram- 8GB
HDD- 2TB
GPU - Sapphire Rx 470 (Added a year ago - Replaced)
Motherboard: ASRock H97M Pro4
PSU - Corsair VS550

I fryed my PC a year ago , just using some adapters and testing something and got it all replaced under warranty.
PSU, GPU,Motherboard,HDD are replaced a year ago... Processor/ram is 3 years old only.

I bought it for gaming but mostly play games on my ps4 so thinking to turn it into mining machine.

I mod my graphics card few days ago and it is giving me around 24-27Mh/s (Ethash) and 650h/s(Cryptonight)
My CPU alone giving me 250+h/s (cryptonight)
I mined Total - 300+ ETN,2-3 Sumocoins and 30-40 Musicoin
Just testing out mining as of now...
I was thinking of adding few more GPU but only 2 GPU slots in motherboard
My questions are
1.I was thinking of adding 1 more GPU (rx580) and not sure if my PSU can handle it, will it able to handle it or is it a bad power supply for 2 GPU's?

2. There is a converter to convert 1 PCIE to 4
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NEW-aad-in-card-PCIe-1-to-4-PCI-express-16X-slots-Riser-Card-PCI-E/32812873421.html

so not sure if this converter is a good idea or it will fry GPU/Motherboard/PSU(I know I have to upgrade my PSU for more graphics card) ,my PC is no longer in Warranty so don't wanna take risk this time using this adapter...
What do you think of this converter?

3.
What I was thinking is I have 4 options in my budget
a . use this converter to add total of 5 rx580 and buying a new PSU only if this converter is actually good... (Cheapest solution)
b . If I have to buy motherboard too instead of this converter then I was thinking to let it 2 GPU PC(if My current PSU supports 2 cards) and built new mining PC with 3-4 graphics card.( This will let me mine 2 different coins on my machines)
c . If my PSU doesn't support 2 card then will buy new PSU Which supports 2 cards and built a new PC with 2-3 GPU's .(This will also let me mine 2 different coins) and two PSU is cheaper than one high wattage PSU
d . Built new PC with 3-5 GPU's(Depends on the price) and move my old rx 470 to new machine and forget about my current PC...

So my question is What do you think is the best option or any other options?

I mined for few hours and it didn't update the balance,I check after 3 days and now the balance is updated , I am not sure why it took so long to update, sorry for calling it scam ...

Don't Mine with this pool this pool is a SCAM...
I used this pool before few days ago and it paid me first time about 20 ETN(17 December), I was only CPU mining before and second payment Pending Balance stuck on 16.44 ETN and I mined for more than 8 hours (CPU mining)  it was still 16.44 and Yes it was showing my hash rate and last share submitted, my miner was running good.I thought I was using my pc while mining it was showing 50 H / sec  on website but 200H/s on miner... So I stopped and used only GPU mining on nanopool/spacepools....
Today I thought its 16.44 ETN lets mine for few hours with GPU and withdraw at 20 ETN but guess what this pool is a scam I mined for few hours and nothing still stuck on 16.44 ETN, Website showing hash rate of 311.39 H / sec but miner shows 800+
