dual mine ETH+LBC or ETH+DCR.
Will take a look, thanks!
Where did you find a GA-H110-D3A motherboard?

While I agree, I'll wait for the first results before I invest more. Can/might add 7th card later on.
So start to build it now and welcome to mining community.
Yes, as far as I know, riser V008C consumes less 5W than V006C.
And one thing, you should notice is mainboard Gigabyte GA-H110-D3A it may change the BOOT section when you update OS.
So if you plan to use window10, you should take a look on BOOT setting in bios otherwise your rig will not startup. As I remember, just choose option name like sth relates to Window.
Thanks or the input, I will update the UEFI/BIOS first and take a look at the settings. I'll start with 1 GPU and add the others once this single GPU is working.
Can I ask where you managed to find GPUs and at what price?

Cards - 580/8GB would give afaik same hashrate as 570/4gb and cost significantly more.
Also do your research on overclocking/undervolting - people just told me they got issues with same cards.
850W PSU is not required, but more power is always better.
Stable rigs 8 GPU run on 850Wx2.
I went for RX580 8GB because price difference is not so big (€60 each compared to RX570 4GB), and to be more future proof (i.e. Etherium DAG size). Might not be the best investment (perf/money) for large scale deployments, I agree. I figured this is -for me- the safest bet for now.
I would not take 8GB of PX580 either, I think 4GB looks more optimal in terms of price / hash ratio.
Think about it.
While I agree, I didn't want to take the risk of not being able to mine some coins because of VRAM limits in the near future.
Good list but I would change from rx 580's to gtx 1060's being your first rig and cards are a bitch to get working. Plus there cost is way out there right now. The corsair Psu's are overpriced crap. U can get two seasonic 850watt for 30 bucks list. Seasonic builds 80% of the Psu's on the market. Always get the largest memory card u can. It will last longer with the file size getting bigger.
I have confidence in getting the 6 RX580 cards working. nVidia mining seems a bit newer, and not for all coins. Feels like I have less confidence in it... But they are a bit cheaper, yes.
I woudn't say Corsair PSU's are crap, but I found 850W Seasonic PSU's for €30 less than I paid for the Corsair PSU's (€105 vs €135).
