CPU supportable with my rig

[parshuram]

I just set up a mining rig with Conf :

- Intel i3 - 6098P CPU
- Asrock - Z170 Extreme 3
- AMD Powercolor RX 480 GPU - 6 gpu
- Kingston 120 GB SSD
- Corsair RM 1000x PSU.
- windows 10 Enterprise x64
- Ram DDR4 HyperX Fury 2133 Mhz

Now I am going to build another rig like this only . But I was asking If I could replace my CPU with another one , Cheaper one so which should I buy. Will it have any effect on my RIG Capacity or will not work. Please Reply.

get a cheap dual core or something, the cpu will not impact your mining.

I assume you are going to mine an altcoin as mining Bitcoin with a computer is outdated by years

no need to have powerful hardware... what you really should invest in is :


motherboard : good one not shitty

PSU : best psu on the market is always an investment. atleast 80+ gold and of good brands

Videocard... at the moment nvidia >> than amd

 This IS the "altcoin mining" forum.

 To the OP - foutside of CPU-specific coins, the CPU has pretty much zero effect on mining speed - I've got one machine on Ethereum running triple R9 290 GPUs with a Sempron 145 (older SLOWish single-core) without issues.
 
 Videocard - depends on what you are mining on. NVidia usually is competative on production per watt, but tends to cost more so production per $ is lower, there are a few exceptions though and this generalization gets changes to the specific details as mining software changed, mining coin values and difficulty changes, and newer cards show up.

I was recently advised to get the Celeron G3900 Skylake duo Core to drive my RX 470...  which I did...  Results posted soon.
