What are your earnings projections?

NiceHash profitability calculator says $43.98 per month, w/o electric.

I see your MB has 6 slots PCI-E, but only powered by 750W PSU
With RX 580 8GB to mine (assumed) Ethash, you will draw 135W. Therefore, you can only use 4 cards (135W * 4 = 540W)
Go here to roughly measure wattage and profitability https://whattomine.com/

For cards, most of the time go for the cheaper one and look for Samsung memory.

You should post in: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0

No plans on going more than 3 cards, I chose this MB for its 3 full slots. Shoot, I may not go beyond 1 card lol.

Also, I decided to get a ROG Strix RX 580 O8G being there's an open box at work, along with my employee discount and a 3 year service plan it will be under $300.

Thanks for replys, off to post in mining!
