Hey all,
I've been lurking around for a bit studying up and putting together a 2k budget for my first foray into mining.
The hope is to start small and move on to 6-8-12 GPU rigs through 2018.
I want to maximize my baby budget and have a (what used to be) pretty beefy production machine. My questions are:
- Is my hardware enough for minging (mb,ram,cpu,psu)
Can't view the first link, however, if you want to do expansions later on go for latest motherboard with more Pci-e slots, z270 boards for example, you don't need an i7 CPU for GPU mining, also invest in High rated watts PSU.
- Is the Radeon 4850 worth using? or compatible with the 1070ti's
No, that radeon don't have enough memory for mining, as possible don't mix Nvidias to AMD as it really a challenging one to set it up
- How many 1070ti's can I safely run on the machine if good enough
depends on the motherboard you will purchase and your PSU ratings
- What components if any could be repurposed in order to save as much of the 2k for gpus
Most of the components used in GPU mining can be resell if you've given up mining.
