Hey Guys
I have been following the crypto scene since 2014.I planned to invest around 1.5k EUR and wanted to mine Litecoin,but i could not buy anywhere the gpus for a reasonable price back then and i quieted.
Fast forward 4 years and now i finally have some cash and made the move.
I ordered :
8GB Sapphire Radeon RX 570 Nitro+ x 48
MSI Z270-A PRO Intel Z270 So.1151 x8
Seasonic PRIME 1200 W Gold x 8
Intel Core i3 7100 2x 3.90GHz So.1151 x 8
120GB SanDisk Plus 2.5" x8
16GB G.Skill RipJaws x4
These are the parts i ordered,they will arrive at the end of the month.I will be making 8 rigs with 6 gpus each.
This is the biggest investment in my life ever,i usually stacked the money under the pillow
, but i am really fascinated by the whole system and i think it will be the future.
If anyone have any tips for me on the start that would be great.Since i think that i will encounter a lot of problems on the beginning with setting up the hardware and software.
PS. I will also keep you guys updated from a noob side from setting the rigs up and getting the most MHS out of them.

as some people mentioned, be sure to mod VBIOS, to get that GPU power consumption down. You want to have your power consumption at max 80% of the PSUs nominal power in order not to damage it long term. This is max 960W at the wall in your case.
Its good thing you bought nitro+ cards as a beginner - those have a backup bios in case you mess something up, so chances of bricking your card is lower.
For future - you do not need as powerful cpu or that much RAM, because they just prolong your ROI and do not make notable difference with GPU mining. Better to invest in good motherboard and good PSU.
And you're also missing powered risers and cases. Will you build cases by yourself?
