You can use i7 with 4GB ram 64gb ssn 2gb/4gb video card(Graphics card) with some cooling fans.

What is this wrong advice you are giving?

1. You don't need an expensive cpu like an i7, I built mine on an AMD sempron which cost only 2k
2. No need for an SSD. Run BAMT or SMOS thru usb bootable
3. GBs do not matter for a graphics card when it comes to mining. You need a high end AMD card like the R9 390x or similar.

Hi
how much cost is for complete Rig setup.
and how much profit we earn per month.

The approx cost comes you around 1.4 lacks.
You can earn approx 20k/month.
Approx ROI 6 - 8 months depends on coin rate you choose.

Hi,

Disclosure : I Sell mining rig supplies

With that said, what you need for a mining rig is.

1.CPU : Any CPU that can handle the demands of GPU, in today's environment any dual core Intel Celeron  will do
2.Motherboard : This can be tricky, this is based on the number of GPU you want to run in a system, an optimal setting is 4+ but most of the people run 6(myself including) in this I would recommend Asrock H81 Pro BTC, this is the best as far as comparability is concerned.
3.Ram : 4GB DDR3 is more than enough
4.HDD : You can run any OS off a USB stick so get yourself a Sandisk 16GB model(USB 3.0 is not required 2.0 will do) and you will be good to go.
5.USB Raisers : You need 1x to 16x USB raisers buy Version 6c and above, what you are looking for is Molex connection or PCIE connection for power so when your GPU pulls in more than 40w through the Raisers your connectors wont melt.
6.GPU : This is highly dependent on what you want to mine, for ZEC nvidia(1080Ti) is best, for ETH go for AMD(Rx 480 8GB), for XMR go for AMD(Rx 480 4GB).
7.Power Supply : Please buy Platinum or Titanium rated ones, the power saving over the years will be worth it.
8.Frame : Buy some aluminium frames and you can build it in less than an hour so do buy any pre built frames online.

If you need any further clarification let me know I will post in detail.

Regards,
BLife

P.S : If you are a DIY person and have electronics knowledge then you can use a server PSU and save a ton of money on PSU

This is FALSE. I am setting up rigs which cost 1.4k each and since eth price rally i am making 30k+ in a month.

I have given the approx earnings... also the ETH price is very high now, if it fall down to $40 what is your monthly earning?
I started mining when ETH is priced $35 now it is about $90. So now you can get 30k but not all the time.

How to set Mining Pool or Software of ZEC, ETH, XMR mining ?
can we use computer as well while doing mining?


Hi,
 Sorry for the late reply. To be honest I am confused by your question, so I will explain what I know, and take it from there.

Mining Pool is a software that allows more than one person or people running their own farms to pool their resource and compute solution
Mining Software is a piece of software that does the actual work of solving(more accurately computing the next block hash).

The general structure is as follows

Mining Rig             |                                           | Server Computer |
Mining Software    |-------------------------------> | Mining Pool           | --------------------------------> Mining Network(ETC,ETH, XMR, ZEC ,etc...)
                                                                     |
Mining Rig             |                                       |
Mining Software    |--------------------------------

Depending upon the load(number of rigs connected to the server, the server computer can be a normal desktop computer or a dedicated server system.

Now why run a pool?
If you have high hashrate say 5MH/s for ZEC then you can do solo mining, but you will have 100's of rigs and you need a place to combine the hash-power into a single entity so you run a pool.

there are other advantages to running a pool.

I hope I gave you a general idea, if you need anymore explanation let me know.

Regards,
BLife

AMD sempron Which version you Suggest ?  and how many GPU's You configured for this rig.

I heard AMD Sempron  gives poor performance in some cases.

@spicepearls @khantahir

can you share us what are configuration You used for rig ? Is it still worthy to get our ROI in time
