Hello,

I am after some advice about building a basic beginners rig. I am looking at the following components:

MoBo - https://www.ebuyer.com/727229-gigabyte-ga-h110m-s2h-socket-lga-1151-vga-dvi-d-hdmi-micro-atx-motherboard-ga-h110m-s2h

CPU - https://www.ebuyer.com/766089-intel-celeron-g3930-socket-1151-retail-boxed-processor-bx80677g3930

RAM - https://www.ebuyer.com/659765-crucial-ct4g4dfs8213-4gb-ddr4-2133-mt-s-pc4-17000-cl16-sr-x8-unbuffered-ct4g4dfs8213

PSU - https://www.ebuyer.com/774869-aerocool-integrator-850w-psu-acp-i850bm-oem

With 2x RX 570's, probably https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B071XPDHW5/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (I will need a riser for one of them)

And Simple Mining OS running from a USB stick.

Does this look ok for a beginners kit? I realise the hash rate is not going to be huge, but I'm using this to learn and see how it all works. And I'll have a spare PCI slot to put a 3rd card in sometime in the future.

WhatToMine.com suggests 0.006 Eth per day - is this realistic?

Any advice / feedback would be much appreciated, thank you.
