The corsair has 5 pci-e connectors, the 6th one is for the CPU Smiley

I recommend EVGA units, G2 or P2, the never ones 1000W G3 also dont have 6 connectors.

@xxcsu

RX570 Nitro+ uses 150w at dual mining, only eth u can bring it down to 110-120@the wall easy. 6 GPU rig goes below 1000w dual mining.

@arnel

The PSU's you ordered only have 4 PCI-E cables, so you will have to connect 2 cables to 4 cards.
Be carefull here with the power draw, if both cards start start pulling close to 300w, that could be a problem and the connectors might get burned.

i have just seen that,thank you so much for pointing that out.

i looked at the shop and i found an alternative it would be the

Corsair HX1200 80+ Plus Platinum 1200 Watt would you recommend that ? i have somwhere read that the connectors burn,thats why i skipped it in the first place.

The parts i ordered is the tricky thing,since in my country all the parts are super expansive i ordered the parts at a store in Germany thats 2000 km from me im at Bosnia.Becouse of that all the parts are from the same store and i cant min max that much.The cpu can go much cheaper but the problem is that at that store there are no other MOBOS,if it where i would buy the biostar mobo or the asrock.I picked the 8gb sapphire so it would be easier for me to resell it later.

i ordered 70 risers on ebay USB3.0 PCI-E PCI Express 1x to 16x the red one version 0007.I choose 70 becouse i heard that lot of them dont work and i want to be sure that i have enough.

the cases i will build alone

I also agree that it can be overwhelming to start out that way. That being said, I did start quickly as well and I built 5 rigs for a total of 32 GPU's. There will be so many things that you will run into that you didn't anticipate and for me it took a few weeks before my setup was stable in any sort of way.

i know the process will be hard and i will run into a lot of things


can u point out some issues ? that you had trouble with ? would help me a lot.thanks in advance

Well, if this is your first venture into mining I would advise you to start small, build 1 rig and learn the process, after it's running 100% stable for a week build the next one, etc.... 8 at once may be difficult at first.


thats a big problem since i need to wait so much for the parts,becouse of the order process.im from bosnia and all the parts im buying are at germany 2000KM ride,since that thing i also cant min/max the price,since i need to order the things that are specific in that store.

Hey Guys
I have been following the crypto scene since 2014.I planned to invest around 1.5k EUR and wanted to mine Litecoin,but i could not buy anywhere the gpus for a reasonable price back then and i quieted.

Fast forward 4 years and now i finally have some cash and made the move.

I ordered :

8GB Sapphire Radeon RX 570 Nitro+ x 48
MSI Z270-A PRO Intel Z270 So.1151 x8
Seasonic PRIME 1200 W Gold x 8
Intel Core i3 7100 2x 3.90GHz So.1151 x 8
120GB SanDisk Plus 2.5" x8
16GB G.Skill RipJaws x4
EDIT : USB3-0-PCI-E-PCI-Express-1x-to-16x-Riser x 70 red one version 0007

These are the parts i ordered,they will arrive at the end of the month.I will be making 8 rigs with 6 gpus each.

This is the biggest investment in my life ever,i usually stacked the money under the pillow Smiley, but i am really fascinated by the whole system and i think it will be the future.

If anyone have any tips for me on the start that would be great.Since i think that i will encounter a lot of problems on the beginning with setting up the hardware and software.

PS. I will also keep you guys updated from a noob side from setting the rigs up and getting the most MHS out of them.
