The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

I've never tried 13 Gpu rigs but while a g39xx will probably be fine, i'd go with minimum 2 cores with 4 threads cpu to have more fun setting/using it. Combine with a ssd and it will be a charm to setup. Considering the price for 13 gpus it's not a big investment (+100$ for a i3 6100 and ssd).
Well that's just my 2 cents, obviously if you're short on budget then go with a g39xx and a used 2.5'' hdd.

I saw some people facing issues with g4400 for 13x rig better go with g4560 or lower i3 better to spend few more bucks for definite working

I think the problem is not in the processor, Celeron G3900 enough. But you need 8gb ram or may be more, to my knowledge.

Cpu has nothing to do with mining even with 13 GPUs. Use the cheapest G3900.

If the mining rig is only a mining rig, the shittiest celeron and 4gb of ram will be enough. If you will run stacking wallets and other stuff then it may start to get slow. I'm mining burst with HDDs and having a celeron makes the ethereum hashrate go a bit lower every 5 minutes or so when burst is mining. But if you only mine with it it's plenty of power, it will just take a bit longer to install windows.

It can work with 8x AMD + 5X nVidia or vice versa.

I have this MOBO + G4600 with it and im happy with it. Most of my others setups are with G3930 or G3900 and it works most of the times, but it hits near 100% on some algos. For the future i think ill buy little bit more powerful ones.

Pentium should be enough.

Actually, Celeron is enough but indeed if you want to use the i3 is also not a problem. for hd, do you think it's better to have a ssd?
For better storage using SSD, their use will be felt when first setting up the GPU and prompting you to restart the computer. Because SSD one of them has Speed 8x faster than on HDD. SSD (the resulting heat temperature is not as hot as HDD, power consumption is very small, no motor rotation and discs that make SDD not noisy). HDD (heat temperature, high power consumption, motor rotation and disk cause high noise). and I suggest for brand SSD is Samsung.

I heard this happening to most rigs that outfit themselves with these g3900 series of celeron chips. They nearly tap out the cpu maximum threshold. Don't know if the G4400 or G4600 series of chips do this as well.

As people said earlier Celeron G3900/G3930 is enough
Once I bought Pentium for my rig and... well it runs a little bit better... but that's not required

Stop buying industrial miners, running them at home, and then complaining about the noise.
