I want to ask in general. Is there a trick to understanding the conditions of used cards? I need to know their potential problems.

I would recommed GTX1070 with tri-slot cooler (models like Gigabyte Extreme Gaming or Palit JS-SJS-GR-GRP). Even during hot summer this cooler can provide enough cold temeparature
Also GTX1070 is quite cheap but still has good mining potential on various algos
Thank you for your recommendations. Like a country as hot as I live in, cooling is one of the main problems of course. Especially in summer.

Id' recommend you buying used rx470/570. It should be very cheap.
What exactly should I be careful about when I go to the used cards? And any comparison idea between RX470/570 and GTX1050/1070?

For the Mainboard get a mining board. You will have much less problems.
They cost only a few bucks and serve 6 Gpus and up.
You can make a recommendation if it pleases you. This topic is open to it. For starter, I won't be in a hurry to get a mainboard serving with six slots but it's okay to recommend.

Of course, there is a difference in between this mining software, one of my friends is also using the GTX 1070(ti) and he is very much happy with the way it is processing the blocks and you can also confirm with this any other members because it will good in good option if more positive reviews for this software.
I mean does it worth the price difference? As I went through the tests, 1050 is doing very good also. Of course, time passes and cards getting older day by day and the newer the better but for a relatively short time I would like you to comment. Smiley

if you really want GPU then it must be Nvidie Rtx but configuration is difficult so  i would recommend GTX 1070(ti) for  both software and algos.

Thanks for the answer. Do you think that there is going to be a significant difference if I go with 1050 instead of 1070ti? Or between 1050 and RTX series?

There are a lot of mining rig setup guides out there. Just google them and you'll know very quickly. Better do you own research first and then ask for opinion.

Then just download Nicehash miner or Honeyminer and Bob's your uncle.
Thank you. I always prefer doing my own research since it is the best way to learn something. But I wanted to have a topic about it also.

You can use  nvidia cards for versatility  with a 1050ti latest motherboard and remember you need more than 1GPU to start but always go with the number you can afford
The most efficient price/performance GPU is 1050ti, isn't it? Should I get higher if I can or just 1050ti is okay?

I can go up to 4 GPU for a starter. Is there a limit that you can suggest about the number of GPUs for start the digging?

You need at least 1 GPU for mining which can be a bare minimum but for max can be set for 13 which will require good CPU, PSU and past experience with GPU mining.

I want to start with 4 GPUs since my budget allows that many. So, do you think it would be profitable with this number and what must be the motherboard and PSU?

It will be profitable only when the electricity prices you pay is cheaper. Anyway, 4 is a good number.
If you are keen to keep your hardware for a long time and for other purposes, I'll suggest budget Ryzen CPU below $60 and a MOB with at least 6 PCIe slots. Some even have 7 or 8. That will be better if you can get your hands on them. 4GB RAM, 120GB SSD, a 1000W GOLD PSU will be best for future proofing.
Thank you, you are the most helpful. And you are right, I need to go and calculate electricity price first. And of course, summer is here and it is another inconvenience.

Thanks for the suggestions and nice recommendations. I guess I will go to GTX 1070. But what about other conditions? Motherboard, PSU etc? And what should I dig?
If you wanna run up to 10 GPUs or even more. Asus B250 mining board looks a good choice for you, about PSU and it can be determined after you have known about how much GPU that you will run it in your motherboard.

How many GPU do you plan to use? How much electricity will it use?

You should write a good plan when you decided to build a mining rig, so you can picking the good stuff that you need and useless parts to leave off to save even more money.
