ETH mining-

Electricity Cost: 0,20€/kwH

Already ordered/got: Mobo + CPU + RAM + ethOS from GPUShack
+ EVGA Supernova 1200W (psu) + Kyerivs PCI-e risers + case

Question – In doubt between 6x GPU’s:

MSI RX 570 4GB Armor OC: 205€ [6x: 1230€]
MSI RX 570 4GB Gaming X: 222€ [6x: 1332€]
Sapphire Radeon RX 570 Nitro+ 8GB: 270€ [6x: 1620€]
MSI RX 580 4GB Gaming: 247€ [6x: 1482€]
MSI RX 580 8GB Armor OC: 271€ [6x: 1626€]

Expecting/Considering to continue on mining other altcoins after pos @ eth.


Any opinions regarding the best GPU in regard to possible MH/s vs Wattage consumption??

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I'm building a mining rig and obviously the "default" motherboards are out of stock everywhere so I've spent hours searching forums and videos on what works (and what's in stock) and I found these:

Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 3
Asus Prime H270-Plus
ASUS Z87-PRO  < trouble maybe
MSI Z170A Gaming M5 < expensive

Has any of you personally been able to use any of these effectively with 6 gpus (I'm looking into RX480 or 570/580) 24/7 stable? I know most of them just need BIOS updating, 4G decoding ENABLED or TOLUD size to 3.5GB plus disabling all unnecessary crap like onboard devices.

I'm planning on using ethOS btw.

Thank you Smiley
