I have been following crypto for a little while.
I have six r9 280 GPU's that were given to me from a former coworker. He made a small fortune in the last year and is now taking an extended vacation. He gave me some of his hardware and told me to use this forum if I had any questions. Is it worth spending the capital for a motherboard, power supply and ram to make a mining rig with six GPU's?
What would be the best motherboard, processor, and power supply?
Any coins that would be best to mine?
I was able to get one of the GPU's to work with my desktop but that's all I can hook up. I've been mining boolberry for a couple weeks. I get cheap electricity so that's not a concern.
Is it worth it to spend more money to use the GPU's I've been given or should I just put them in a box and forget about them. It wouldn't cost much but I don't want to waste my time if it's pointless.
Thanks in advance.
if it's for mining any crappy board and low end cpu/ram will do... the important part is the psu
