Hi everyone I'm new to the forum and looking for some guidance on altcoin mining. I would prefer to start small and make it scalable maybe start out with 6-8 Gpu's.

As far as what coin i want to mine and joining a pool goes I'm not really sure. And I hear of scams going on in some pools or is that not true?

Now I do understand these things take a lot of power so I would like to build more towards efficiency, even if there are higher upfront cost.
My cost is 7 cent per kwh with taxes and fees in my area.

From doing some quick Googling it seems the GTX 1660 TI is the most efficient with a little tuning or is there something else in the near future that maybe better?

Also recommendations on motherboard, CPU, Ram and power supply.

Would also like to see pics of your GPU rigs, thanks everyone and have a great day!
