Hi,

I want to build a GPU-based system to mine ETH. I'd like to start with 6 GPU and upgrade to 12 GPU later on. Here is the setup that I put that together until now.

Motherboard: BIOSTAR TB250-BTC PRO (supports 12 GPU)
GPU: 6x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070
Celeron G3900 2C @ 2,8 Ghz
Corsair AX1500i 1500 Watts (it's 80 Plus Titanium therefore 90%+ efficiency)
Random RAM and SSD (as far as I know it's not important)
Riser cables. I don't really know what model I should buy but I'll figure it out
Open case with 6x Artic F12 PWM intake and 6x outtacke

The idea is that when I'll double the number of GPU from 6 to 12 I'll buy an additional Corsair AX1500i 1500 Watts and 12x Artic F12 PWD.

Is this a good mining rig? What parts would you change and why? I'm open to suggestions of course.

Thank you.

why mining eth using nvidia?
