Hi all,

Have been mining way recently on my 1070 which I have owned for the last four years and usually sits most dormant in my PC (other than playing dota Wink

) Have recently taken to mining ETH with this again and have been enjoying doing so. I've never gone hard on this previously, but decided to build a "small" mining rig (4 x 3060TIs). I wondered if anyone could suggest what I might need?

Struggling most with the motherboard currently, any time I go to any of the online stores, they seem to have hundreds to choose from. When I google a suitable motherboard for mining, I always seem to get motherboardds for 6 - 20 cards. And often can't find these anyway.

Possible parts:
PSU - Corsair 1000W - https://www.umart.com.au/Corsair-RM1000x-1000W-Power-Supply-Fully-Modular-80-Plus-Gold_33434G.html
Seems to have enough 8 pin for the 3060 and 6 pin for the risers (that i'll also need).

Mobo - ?
CPU - any cheap one compatable with Mobo I assume
Ram - 4gb of cheap stuff
ssd - 64gb just to power windows?

Could anyone make a suggestion please of what parts to pair with the four 3060TIs? Am I missing anything? And is anyone replying happy to receive a DM with further questions?

Thanks guys
dryath

mobo gigabyte b250 fintech 12 gpus
psu antec high current pro platinum 1000w
cpu intel g4400
ram 8gb recomended
ssd 128 recomended, well i want 3060 ti but there is out of stock in all market at the moment, waiting rtx 3060 should grab at first day

Hi, I think 1000 watt power supply is too damn low for 12 graphic cards and most especially the RTX3060ti, it's better to get something more powerful or go with two separate power supply and two mobo, using all 12 GPUs on a single motherboard can give problems

Plus one, a bigger PSU will be needed. Current one wont be able to handle that many cards.
