I'm interested in build my own crypto-digger.
I don't want to buy a digger from some company, because i think that this experience will teach me something about hardware and process of digging.
- Teach yourself first , get some basic knowledge about how things works , do your own research, that is what going to teach you something about hardware and process of digging ( you can call it mining just like everyone else)
I was doing some research but at this point i don't know some things and i have got some questions.
- I dont think you done any kind of research
I hope that you can help me and answer some of them.
- sure
1. Which mining pool can give me possibility to mine a lot of altcoins for low-fee-cost?
- what you want to mine
2. How many space must i provide between GPUs?
- what is the ambient air temp ?
3. Which ventilators are the best? I have seen that there are additional vents between GPUs.
- for what ? what is the airflow in your mining room ? what is temp for the incoming air , are you planing push and pull, push or just pull the air ?
4. Which motherboard do you personally recommend?
- how many cards you want to use ?
5. Where can you buy new graphic cards? (there are a lot of problems with new ones right now)
- unbelievable question !!! Really ??
6. Do you have any tutorial about GPU flashing?
- hundreds all over on the web and on this forum
7. How to connect a lot of cards to one motherboard? I have seen some PCI-E instructions but i really do not know how to use it (i didn't find any simple tutorial). How does it work when i want to connect more than 4 cards to motherboard like Gigabyte GA-Z270-Gaming K3?
- very simple plug and play to the mobo or via pci raisers
8. Are you doing the frame by yourself or are there some frame-providers on the market?
- whatever you like , you want to pay for it ? or you want to build one if you have a technical skill ...
That is all, thank you for answers!
- Your welcome ...

And before you are starting to asking questions about profitability , roi time , worth it or not  , my suggestion is : please read this topic Smiley

No, you didn't make an research at all.
You asking for complete guide from a to z.
Don't be lazy a find the information.
And for next time, don't ask for 1000 times answered questions...

If you're doing this for profit, I'd strongly suggest that you consider your power costs very closely. Now is not a great time to get a brand-new rig going from scratch if you don't have reasonably low power costs. I'd recommend just getting your feet wet by buying a reasonably powerful graphics card (that you believe you could resell or find a use for) and hook it up to an existing desktop, if at all possible.

On the other hand, if this is solely because you are interested in the process and want to learn more, go for it.
If mining doesn't work out, you could use some Nvidia cards to tinker around with TensorFlow.

Check out masternode coins instead, you'll save heaps of money on gear and energy and still get to make lots of coins - check out https://masternodes.pro/ for a list of coins and stats.

Depen what coin you want to digg  Grin
But on your place I will go on  8x 1070 gtx on biostar bt250 btc+ board with 8 slots.

Thanks for yt links Wink!

No problem, they are very knowledgable people. Well atleast for me, ive spent weeks watching videos before i started my first build. Got very boring at times. But this is a business depending how much your going to invest.
I built a few rigs and just kinda went crazy and got my hands on gpus. Haha. But it was and still a great journey, this mining thing. Im still learning alot. Talk about trial and errors. Im currently rebuilding my smalll facility again. Haha always something new to learn.
Goodluck! Happy mining

The post above has a point.. if you said you done your research than you wouldnt be asking these questions.
I suggest you really do some research, theres a search button on here. Also youtube videos and google will help alot.  Truthfully i think your being lazy and want someone to give you a step by step guide. You couldve found a step by step guide if you spent 1 minute to search a youtube video. You doing "some research" sounds like you spent a few minutes researching?

Anyways cryptomined and bits be trippin does alot of great videos for gpu builds.

Check out those youtube channels. Should get you up to date.
