I've been following this forum for a while and have been involved in crypto for a little under 2 years. I've finally decided to build my first mining rig:
6x GTX 1070 ti
1x GIGABYTE GA-Z270P-D3 LGA1151
1x Pentium Processor G4400 3.3 GHz
1x Ballistix Sport LT 4GB Single DDR4 2400 MT/s
1x ADATA SU700 120GB 3D-NAND
6x Mailiya PCIe Dual Chip PCI-E
1x Power Cable on/off Push Button ATX Computer Switch Wire 45cm
1x TP-Link Smart Plug w/ Energy Monitoring
1x Dual PSU Adapter
1x Add2PSU
1x Frame
I do have a few questions:
1) Due to availability of where I live, I can't get the power supplies that I want. I was wondering if I can I use an EVGA G2 750 to power 2 of the 1070 TIs and the mobo, and a Seasonic Platinum 1200 to power the other 4 1070 TIs? If so, will I need any additional items other than the Dual PSU adapter and an Add2PSU?
2) Does anyone have any feedback on the items above, and am I missing anything that I will need?

Should be okay with 2 Evga 750w G2's which will give you 600w usable power. (each PSU has 4 pcie cables so buy splitter that splits a 6 pin into a 2 (6+2) pins and connect one with GPU and the other with the 6-pin riser. This way you can connect at least 4 Gpu's & Risers / PSU).

PSU 1 powers 3 1070 Ti's plus the system (150x3+100) . and PSU 2 can power 3 1070 Ti's (3X150) with room for additional cards.
If you want to expand later can get the ASUS Z270A that gives you 7 pci-e slots with possibility of another 2 cards through m.2.
If you expand past 7 look into bigger PSU as needed.
On the SSD the SU650 uses 3D nand also so it might be cheaper to go with that.
On the CPU G3900 has a lower power consumption.
DDR4 2133Mhz might be cheaper (was for me)
Good luck!
