Thanks,

what about the CASPER project, do you guys think ethereum will soon switch to proof of stake protocol? Will mining become redundant soon?

Casper will initially work in tandem with POW.
There is no solution planned yet that is POS only.
Until POS is implemented and we are in a hybrid phase I wouldnt worry.

Can read more about it here.

They have been talking about CASPER for a long time now, no mention of progress with CASPER.

Guys, a question about the PCIe slots. AsRock H270 Pro4 has 2 PCIe 3.0 x16, 3 PCIe 3.0 x1, 1 PCI slot. In the pic bellow theres a PCI slot which is physically different from the x16. Is this regular PCI (on the very bottom of motherboard) compatible with the risers that are used to hook GPUs onto the motherboard?

plenty of other coins to mine. and who knows when (if?) Casper ever happens.

You will need to buy another 750 w PSU for the second set of 4 RX 580s you plan on buying in half a year.
Setup looks good.

Hey everyone,

so i'm doing a research on building my first mining rig. I'm thinking this:
4x Sapphire Nitro+ RX580 8GB build with Asus Prime Z270-A motherboard, Pentium G4400 CPU, Crucial 4GB CL16 2.133MHz DDR4 and EVGA 850W SuperNOVA Gold Power Supply.

I would add another 4 RX580s in half a year or so and another EVGA 850W PSU, because i can't afford a 8 gpu rig right now.

Would this setup run with a EVGA 850W power supply? Would you guys change anything?

Cheers, Nino
