Hi everyone, this is my first post although I've read a million posts here (which only covers about 1% of what is probably posted on this forum!)
I've been reading so much stuff/opinions on mining so I thought I would give it a try, why not. I'm trying to keep my budget down and starting out I have an old Asus P5Q motherboard.
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P5Q/It does have a total of 3 PCIE slots, which I assume are fine for mining.
I am purchasing 3xrx470 cards for this board but I only have a 500W PSU at the moment.
I suppose my primary questions are
1) Will this board support mining (BIOS issues? other?)
2) I need risers yes, however, will I run into any compatibility issues with the rx470s?
3) Will a 500w PSU support 3x470s?
4) If i need a new PSU, will I need to buy an older PSU to support this MB?
thanks in advance for all replies and considerations for your time.
