I am located in Canada. I'm looking for a complete or not gpu rig kit or cheap parts. I don't need PSU's. I might be interested in PSUs, as part of the deal if they're EVGAs G2+.
Main Interest: -Mobo/Cpu/Ram 5-6 Pci-e slot -5-6 USB risers -Just need CPU LGA 1150 and RAM -Maybe a HDD or two
GPUs: (Bought all i need for now)
-r9 280x/380x or similar. - Maybe 750ti if the price is right.
Other: -Open case or Frame for mounting everything on, very optional.
I'll buy in BTC or i can trade in such BTC miners = S1, S5, AM Tubes

Check craigslists / kijiji for the GPUs. They will be the cheapest option right now but you need to do it before everybody catches on to the ETH mining and they will be sold out. $150 I paid for a few 7970's, $170 for a few 280X, etc. Couldn't get them any cheaper. Some people really think their GPUs are gold and are selling them at the same price as a brand new 380X.
The motherboard and CPU you might as well buy brand new, they are cheap and you can always resell them at a good price.
Risers you need to buy on eBay. Make sure they are powered with the +12V/GND lines cut from the mobo end.
To mount everything on? Just buy an adjustable shelf, you can get it at CanadianTire or HomeDepot, around $20.

If you find me some cheap GPU's i'll give you a cut. I already have a solution for mounting, i'm just lazy and would like something more compact. If you have a link to show me what you are talking about, that would be nice. For risers, normally i get them for 13CAD ea from Bitcoinware. I checked ebay and saw much higher prices. I might do that for the mobo kit, i already have an order i can place anytime, just waiting to see if i can source GPU at a good price first (and might as well fish for better Mobo/cpu/ram deal meanwhile, since newegg will take 2 days tops for me to receive the mobo stuff), and on Kijiji it can be annoying because i dont have a car and dont trust people to ship.

Yeah generally on Kijiji you usually go to the seller. Very rarely will a seller deliver a product to you. Maybe MemoryExpress has deals on 380 in your area.

I have 2 ASRock H81 Pro BTC motherboards and two open air GPU frames. The frames are stackable. I'm located in the US but these frames are durable, lightweight aluminum. They weigh only a few pounds combined, so shipping should not be overly expensive. If you're interested let me know and I'll send you some pictures when I get home (I'm at work right now ) I also have 10 powered risers, 3 that take molex connectors for power and 7 that take SATA.

Well get me a price, then i'll compare to other offers. I only need one mobo. Do you have CPU/4gb ram to go along with it? If its cheap enough it could be worth paying expensive shipping + duty. I'd need 5-6 risers to go along with it. Edit: Oops, give me an idea for the rack, too. But yeah i dont have the dosh to build 2 rigs right now, maybe a second rig next month tho.

Were you the one who bought all of Finsky's GPUs ? They all sold out in like a day.

No, someone swept them. I just wanted some of them. I'm guessing Kotarius could be the one, but it doesnt matter anyways.

And I have a OS solution to run on USB keys. I just want a windows backup in case i need to change algo, its easier to do on windows. Also; I am still still interested in CPU/RAM until tomorrow.

I'm def buying them locally if needed before i receive the rest of the stuff. But i'm a bit tight on money since nobody wants to buy SHA256d asic right now even if the price is great. So i'll try to pinch every penny i can until i can sell some stuff.

1150 CPUs will never be cheap. AMD CPUs usually are cheap but intel always holds their value and especially the current generation. I had to buy a CPU+MOBO this week also. I just got a MOBO from MemoryExpress clearance section and got the G3258 Intel CPU which was $95. The mobo was only $70.
In 6 months you can probably resell on eBay for almost the same price as new.

Um, i can get Celeron 1150 for 40$ here from retail. I'm not sure which one the G3258 is but, thats insanely expensive. The mobo brand new on amazon is 40$ as well.

I dunno where you live, but online and even at retail computer stores in the area a G3258 goes for like $50-60 and with a mobo combo. usually even less. I'd NEVER buy a used CPU or motherboard as 50% chance it will die on you within 6 months. I work in IT and support PC's and servers and this has been pretty much consistent with used hardware.

I looked everywhere and that LGA1150 Celeron is out of stock everywhere. Post a link and i'll return the G3258 and get that instead. http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX52767Also post the $40 mobo on amazon with 5 PCIe slots.
