Free electricity you say? used Radeon 7970s, 7990s and/or R9 280Xes... they go for around 100 usd each (the 7990 can be tricky to find, but if lucky, fairly cheap). And downvolt every card as much as you can. My 7990 and r9 280 is downclocked to 950 mhz core, downvolted to 1 volt, from 1,2 which saves ALOT of power and reduces temps by at least 30%. each card makes 280 sols/s so ideal for equihash.. or if you want to go for XMR based cards cryptonote, its around 500 hs/card.

cheap budget rig that will ROI alot faster compared to any super expensive new card.

Just found this
1. Rig:
Asrock H61M BTC, Intel Celeron, 4GB RAM, 3x (corsair cs750m, XFX550), HDD 500GB, 4x Sapphire R9 280X Vapor-X, 1Sapphire RX480 4GB Nitro

2. Rig:
Asrock H61M BTC, Intel Celeron, 4GB Ram,
3x(corsair cs750m, Fortron 600W Hyper), SSD 120GB, 5x Sapphire R9 280X Dual X

All for 2100..worth it?

Do not buy this. If those cards die you're out of luck. Stick to buying gtx 1060 or rx 570 if you can buy cheaply. How much is a gtx 1060 3gb where you live?
