Hi guys,
So, want to put together 2 miners with identical HW - electricity is included in the office rent, so we count it as "free".
Mobo: ASUS H81MPLUS
CPU: Intel Celeron G1840
GPU Option 1: Sapphire Radeon RX 480 NITRO+ 4GB, 2 fans - 4 pcs (EAN 4895106280014)
GPU Option 2: XFX Radeon RX 480 OC 8 GB 1 fan - 4pcs (EAN 0778656071919)
HD: 64 GB SSD ADATA
RAM: 8 GB DDR3
PSU: LEPA MAXBRON 800W
Questions:
Would you give me some feedback - primarily on the graphics card - the exact model - should I go for option 1, option 2 or a completely different version of the 480? I'm ofc looking to get the most MH/s with a custom bios.
Would you go for USB powered raisers, or ordinary raisers?
In regards to OS, what would you recommend - going for ethOS (I use linux on a daily basis, so I know my way around) or is there an advantage in running windows these days?
