Hi all.
New to mining here and I just went all in for a 10x 1080ti zotac (3 fan) card rig! Kind of crazy with the current market for graphics cards and value of coins, I know but I got them at a decent price. Couple of quick questions for all you experts. I'm planning on increasing the card count to 13 + at some point in the near future. What and how many psu should I get?
I was looking at the EVGA super nova 1600, but I am open to any suggestions for what is safest and most cost effective.
I'm also using: I7-7700 Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB Internal SSD, 2x 8gb ddr4 ballistix elite, risers Asus b250 mining expert.
Once I get everything set up I see through the 200+ pages here that there are plenty of algo and places to maximize profit and such so I won't go on about that portion for now.
Any help, suggestions or words of wisdom/ advice are welcomed! Please be kind haha.
Thanks.
PS, currently going through the entire forum now ...so if I find the answers before someone comments I'll delete this. Thanks agian.
I like the server PSU's ~1200w platinum rated, and cheap What psu you use?

Or do you think I should go for something a little bigger for everything? Guess I might need an adapter. You'll probably only want to do 4 GPU per PSU. You can hook a few up together.

Happy to be here You're probably limited with DM's as a new account, so probably easier to do it here for now. That way others can also learn and chip in where I may be wrong / offer alternate advice

actually for a rig you do not need this expensive CPU and memory, you may put just a celeron and 8GB cheapest DDR4 memory. as well as 128GB SSD or even an old and working HDD for 320GB-500GB, this will lower the cost of the rig as for PSU I'm using HP 2450W server PSU for a rig with 8 x gtx 1080ti

When you guys talk about +100 Core - what is your actual core clock? I have an "ASUS ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 Ti OC" which has OC default so not sure how to compare my settings to yours

I don't think the ASUS b250 supports more than 8 Nvidia cards at the moment, unless I missed an update.

You just have to play with it to see where it breaks and lower it a bit. Nobody can tell you what setting you can set for your card.

I find the msi armor the best ones hash-wise, even though they got the shittiest heat sink.

Card is limited of a few parameters and +75, +100 and +150 mean the same for card, cause it can't add frequency to the moon.

Hello, what pool/currency would you recommend for 2x1080TIs? Altminer with Luxcoin Agree with LUXCoin, another pool for LUXCoin is Yiimp if any availability/capacity. Also look at BTX, pool Bitcorepool.

I get the feeling luxcoin isn't going anywhere. And yes, I was NOT accepted for the luxcoin signature campaign. Gonna bash them wherever I can.

I don't suppose anybody wants to share the SP Lux Miner? I can't justify paying that silly price for 1 small rig.
