I don't think its worth spending an extra $1000 on 6 waterblocks + radiator + pump.
Thanks. Also,to avoid the noise why can't just an air conditioner be used in the rig room? A proper AC. What do you think will it keep the room enough cool to keep the rigs in a stable condition? Why do you need to avoid the noise, especially for a room with 18 cards? Air Conditioner will also make noise. Just increase the fan speed to keep the GPU under 95 degrees Celsius.

Hey,
I am planning to make 3 mining rigs. With the following config:
Mobo: Asrock H81 Pro BTC Gpu: 6xR9 280 (per rig) i.e. 18-R9 280 PSU: Corsair Ram: Corsair HDD: WD
Firstly, please tell me if the following config will be good enough or not. Secondly, how will all these three rigs mine together. As in will using the same configs and details of my pool on all the three rigs will do the thing or is there something else that needs to be done. Thirdly, I need a minimum monthly income of $1000 and plan to mine DogeCoin, will that be a good choice or not? If No, then please do suggest me a good AltCoin.
Also, i am expecting the cumulative hashrate to be around 12,000 Khash/s. Am i right?
Thanks
You could expect 13,000-13,500 Khash/s when all settings are optimal. (Linux) It will be a pain in the ass to get 6 cards running on Asrock H81 Pro BTC boards. 2x Corsair 1000W should be fine for 6 cards. For 5 cards, use 1x 1000W and 1x 750W. Saves you little money and a lot easier to setup. Good luck!

Why do you want to buy a hard drive? Also what psu do you want to buy? here is list of proper psu reviews not that multimeter bullshit: http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page541.htmhere are corsair http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page447.htm. when you click the link to site when you review it shows how they upgraded their equipment so they test psu properly not with a multimeter or some other shit Also you dont need a case or anything else fancy like that. If you use price compare sites (s\there are someTEEN of them) you will save lotss of money.Check it out. Thanks. and HDD coz i can't get a Linux or any other USB and stuff. So i will have to install the OS and PSU i am planning of corsair's i.e. 2-750w. Also, Suggest me some good coin too? For a thousand dollar at least, a month? Im considering this spoonfeeding but maybe if someone researches this question the maybe this will answer that person: you can use coinwarz.com to see what coin is most profitable atm.Be aware though it might change completely in much less than few minutes. there are also coin announcements like on cryptocointalk.com They also give you the coin for free to get the coin into circulation or whatever. if you get in early before it hits up those sites like wheretomine.com then you can very often make better profit than the top coin on these sites. But 90% of potential success is in gathering enough data about all the prices and all else and using it together to make the best decision what you should do with all those types of coins. you can compare this effort to creating an artwork I am having a contusion between these two. 1. http://www.ebay.in/itm/XFX-Double-D-R9-280X-TDFD-Radeon-R9-280X-3GB-384-bit-GDDR5-CrossFireX-Support-/281265960520?pt=IN_PC_Laptops&hash=item417cc1f648&_uhb=12. http://www.flipkart.com/msi-amd-r9-280x-gaming-3g-3-gb-gddr5-graphics-card/p/itmdpvgkkbdgvgqzI can't understand which one of these has a higher Hashrate, looking at the lite coin hardware comparison chart. Could ya please help?

XFX cards are generally considered to be not the best for mining which is why you see them cheaper and in stock more.

Also make sure to only use Powered risers for the cards that w ont use power from the extra molex to mobo connectors or something might burn. Google this should find reddit thread with more info. So you save on risers. You can use risers but not all powered.

What do you think will it keep the room enough cool to keep the rigs in a stable condition? air conditioner is good but you incur more cost.. if you have a house with lower floor or how do you call it then move it more down as it is always colder the lower you are in a house.THERE IS a physics term for this. I think its something to do with thermodynamics or whatever. Also make your room windows covered so room is pitch black. This should make things better than if you would have used AC upstairs.

If i have to get one i probably will have to import it from Malaysia or USA. The problem with that is, if something happens to the mobo their won't be any warranty for that. This is why i am thinking to go for a Gigabyte or some other mobo to which at least 5-6 GPU'S can be connected. Suggest me one? Thanks
