[Question] Need help new to crypto mining

[DL1MP1K]

Hello Everyone,

I posted here 2 years ago, wanted to start mining, but some things I had to do and forgot about it totally. Now it's time to come back to a business.

Ok, my biggest advantage is that I have free electricity. I can use any device up to 1500 Watt. Now I want your opinion, which cpu/gpu/miner to buy, as I am totally noob I have no idea where to start. Also, I would like to mine Monero, as I think it has good potential so can you advise where to start, which hardware to buy and what is the hardware lifetime, as it's my only cost.

Waiting for your advice.

If you like Monero, you can buy Vega 56/64 or you can try to find old R9 390-like cards thats nice on cryptonight algo

390X or Vega. 390Xs aren't really being sought after because of the super high wattage inefficiency, but if really have completely free energy, than 390X's are the way to go for you.

Yes thanks for reply, but as I am completely noob, please tell me after I buy how set it up? Let's say I bought GPU, then what are the next steps?
Also is mining worth it? will I break even easily with free electricity?

Hello, I also want to start to build my first mining rig. But is it possible if I start build gpu mining rig with just one or two GPU? Yea, because it is the first mining rig that I want to build with a tight budget.

Can anyone suggest us to start with a high entry level GPU or the old GPU? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks

Go to mine Monero and Zcash. These coins are now increasing enormously in the price and supply wise. If you are getting electricity you will able to make any money according to your investment ability to buy a cards and other components to set it up will give you more income as the number of rigs you are going to added.
AMD and Nvidia are best cards in the market which is been used to mine any altcoins.
