Hello! ![:)]( ":)")
I decided to just create a thread because I can't figure it out and I don't have anybody to aid me with this!
After weeks, even months, deciding either to invest or not on a GPU minning rig, finally decided to go for it!
I know that is always a risk and im sure of my decision!
I made a note with the equipments i'm planning to use however i'm afraid to fail on the connections parts, I don't really understand how the risers work and what sort of connection it needs to be ( maybe there are different types of risers?)
Anyway, I decided to post here the equipments with the respective connections and hopefully you can help me! even with the powersupply , for what should i point?
My issue is really if I'm missing something, what to be in mind on buying the powersupply and the risers Part....
Since most parts I saw where out of stock I went for this ( Opinions are always appreciated! ;D)
I will start with 3 GPU's and later on maybemore 3 ( max is 6)
Motherboard
GIGABYTE F2A88X-D3H
Slots:( for the risers?)
1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x16 (PCIEX16)
* For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16 slot.
(The PCIEX16 slot conforms to PCI Express 3.0 standard.)
* To support PCI Express 3.0, you must install an FM2+ APU.
1 x PCI Express x16 slot, running at x4 (PCIEX4)
3 x PCI Express x1 slots
(The PCIEX4 and PCI Express x1 slots conform to PCI Express 2.0 standard.)
2 x PCI slots
GPU
3x Sapphire Radeon RX580 Nitro+ 8GB GDDR5 (PCI-E) 11260-02-20G
Stock Speed: 22mhz Modded Speed: 29mhz
CPU
AMD Athlon X4 860K 3.7Ghz
RAM
4GB DDR3 ( some generic ram with 4gb)
HDD
Just an old drive I have sitting here at home, about 500GB ( I think it's even more than enough)
FANS
I'm deciding yet if I will use a closed case or not ( for decorations purposes lol ) if so, i will buy about 4-6 fans just for cooling , i think it's alright for a closed case)
almost 99 percent sure it will be open air case but it's not important right now i think
thermal paste
I'm not worried too much about the power consumption...
I think it's only missing the risers and the power supply, can you help me on that?![:p]( ":p")
Thank you!
