I think im going to build a nice rig and give the S9 a wide berth
its noisy and they break down a lot and only mine bitcoins
while im here i have a computer with a i5 wirh 2 pic slot for video cards and if i was to buy 2 cheap video cards for it off ebay
what is the best bang for buck im not bothered about using to much electric i just want pure mh/s power

thx steve

with 2 "cheap" video cards you not going to make any money

buy a recent card , rx470 / rx480 / or the new rx 500 series cards
make sure your computer power supply can handle that 2 extra cards !!!

I have 4K spare so I can buy a Antminer S9 or
Pc rig with 6 video cards but i haven't decided which way to go
So any advice welcome for a newbie
The electric will be free as im putting it in a spare office at work as i am a Boss I can

thx

the s9 runs loud runs hot and breaks fairly often.

I do not know your office layout,but if sound is an issue 2 three card rigs may work better then 1 six card rig.

what coin are you mining ?

you posted this under
Bitcoin Forum > Alternate cryptocurrencies > Mining (Altcoins) , so i guess you are not talking about BTC

Bitcoin mining with ordinary computers is completely impractical in its current state.

The only way that people can now make profit from Bitcoin mining is by buying dedicated machines called ASICs which companies like BITMAIN sell. Using an ordinary computer, you can't mine Bitcoin efficiently, and to even make a profit with ASICs you'll need low electricity costs.

If you can't commit to buying ASICs though, you can always mine altcoins.
