Looks like a decent setup, what are you going to mine and / or software are you going to use for mining?

I have no clue yet.  Maybe GBX, VIVO, Hugh or Nicehash?  They pay the best according to Whattomine.com.

Was going to ask you guys what you suggest I start with.  Like what pool?  What software and what coin?

I'd like something that pays out in ether or bitcoin.  I don't know how often I should request the payout maybe every 3 days or so?   Also I have to figure out how to calculate the income taxes for mining.. is the taxable income tax event when I get the payout or all throughout the day of what I am mining at various levels of fair market value (seems complicated).

Lots to learn! Smiley. Also I guess I need to get that MSI panel to control video cards?  Each algorithm needs certain GPU settings to be optimal?  e.g. clock etc.
