Hi, I am setting up a 6 nVidia GTX 1070 FE rig using GIGABYTE H110-D3A motherboard. I am slight unsure on which CPU to use. Is i3/5/6 CPU necessary or a Celeron will do aswell. Also about the RAM, will a 4GB DDR4 do? Thanks
Why GTX 1070? This cards are too expensive for their hashing power. Much better are AMD cards (Rx 470, Rx 480).
Celeron and 4GB is OK.
There is calculator for different GPUs:
www.whattomine.comCeleron is good if you don't mind the rig to boot slow, same with using only 4gb ram. if you set a page file aka the virtual memory larger that's more performance lost, yall should really understand what the virtual memory is for. if you had 16gb of ram, youd have virtually NO need for a page file except that of which windows normally sets. why cause its got access to better faster ram and more of it instead of using the page file that's on a slow hard drive or ssd
