No i used SSD cause it is much faster then HDD because when i was building this i restarted my rig a lot of times and i didnt want to waste my time waiting for my Windows and all programs to boot but you can use HDD its up to you. I forgot to mention that SSD is using less power then HDD because there is no moving part inside.
For the power usage i dont know because i will need to take all the GPU to measure that.
And with the last question are you asking me for PCI Risers
Here is the link from PCI Risers https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073LNKTBD/ref=as_li_ss_tl?tag=buriedone-20&ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&linkId=0a10c1123b37e255d16afc6d740830d7
If this is not what you was asking can you explain because English is not my 1st language

I have a few questions if you don't mind.
Did you use the SSD because you had it laying around or you actually had a reason for it? Same question for the 8GB ram.
I was thinking of building something similar to you, and am very interested in keeping everything to the lowest power usage with exception of the GPU's, in short, cpu/mb/mem heat/power usage to the lowest possible.
Also what PCI you're using on your rack? Would you have a link from where you got those from and their price at the time?
And good luck on your build!

Congrats to your mining rig!.
Yes i build it myself
Well i wasnt sure about the second PSU i bought only 1 from 1000W but then i was reading on the internet and they were saying that is better to go with 2 PSU because the power consumption is decreasing by 5% and your PSU can live longer but here is the price
GPU 6x370 = 2220
SSD 60
PSU 160
PSU2 82
RAM 70
CPU 40
RISER 60
MOTHERBOARD 84
There is only 5 GPU for now but iam waiting for 1 more

Nice job, this is really clean and your mining speed is great ! Seems well optimized 
I have one question though : how could this cost you 2700$ ? This is way too much... Did you build it by yourself ?

Thank you for the tip i will change that
Hi this is my first mining rig that i build so i just want to ask you guys what do you think about my rig. Iam planing to build one more with 8 GPUs if i can find the same one 
Iam using Windows 10 PRO 64 bit and Iam mining on Claymore miner on ethmine.org pool. I was thinking to switch to Simple Miner but so far everything is good so i will keep mining on Windows. The only problem that i had during this build was the faulty Riser.
So here is some pictures from my rig and my config on the pictures you will see only 5 GPU that is because i had some problem with the seller. But i ordered one more and it one the way should be here in like one or two days
So this is what i have
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H110-D3A
CPU: Intel Celeron C3900
RAM: PNY Anarchy X 8GB
SSD: Kingston 120GB
PSU: EVGA 1000 GQ
PSU2: EVGA 650 GQ
GPU: 5x(for now) Sapphire NITRO+ RX 580 8GB (Samsung Memmory)
I modded the bios setting for this cards and here is my overclocking
The temperature is around 50C with fan speed around 70%
And my Hash Rate is around 31MH/s
My Power consumption is around 820KW/h on this picture is around 840KW/h because i hooked up my monitor on the same plug
So is there anything that i can change to improve .
PS Iam using Wireless adapter

Fan speed are too high for me. I set Temp to be around 65 in the bios so Fan are slower around 33%. I think is better for fan life support ^^
Plus if during winter your fan are 70% imagine in summer...
Good config by the way
So i spend around 2700$ on this build and iam just starting with mining this is my second day of mining so i dont have any number yet that i can confirm . I was thinking to build same one with same GPU but i cant find them any more or they are too expensive i bought this card at 370$ now they are 500$ so i would say go with RX 480 if you can find them
Looks great! I was thinking about doing an amd build for my next rig. How are the earnings so far?
