Please tell me how do I power my risers. I have 2 Antec 750W PSUs (non modular) which will power my 12*1050 ti rig. My riser have a SATA, molex and 6-pin slot. The retailer from which I bought my mining stuff was powering the same rig and risers with SATA on a modular PSU.


And What the hell are miners ? What is this claymore, ethash and stuff ? I want to start my rig today so please tell me which miner is best for mining etherium. I will mine using Hive OS. Also point me towards best wallet and pool.

Thanks a lot guys, you are the best.

Like people infront of me said. Stat with 1 GPU and LEARN HOW TO do it... Give man a fish and he won't be hungry for a day. Teach him man how to catch a fish, and he won't be hungry in his life.

I'd recommend starting with 1 video card and use Nicehash until you gain a little bit of experience. At this point you shouldn't be messing with a 12 GPU rig if you don't even know what a miner is.  No offense intended, just the truth of it for your own sanity's sake. Wink

Worry about getting your hardware up and running first. You can use nicehash for now then move on to managing the mining software yourself.

Also which is the best miner is for mining etherium only. Do people still use ethminer ? I think claymore is better suitable for dual mining. Is bminer any good ?

I will mine using Hive OS. Also point me towards best wallet and pool.
