You will be running some higher-end graphic cards mate, they need a stable power supply or you will put them at risk, fins Corsair, Evga or OCZ power supply, I have killed a GPU with a Chinese 1200 watt PSU before, do not repeat the same mistake.

PSU is the last thing you don't want to cheap out on

i think its cheap coz its a non-modular PSU, but ok what the hell ... ill go with the more expensive:
FSP Hydro G Pro HG2-1000 which am using right now and i love it !...

will 2x of these be enough ?!

i calculated 300w per 3090/3080 Ti (4 cards x 300w = 1200w)
and 200w for the 3070 Ti total 1400 W !

thanks for the advise...

You should definitely not go with a too cheap PSU just to save a few bucks. If your PSU craps out, your whole system will be at risk. You should go with a well known, sturdy brand. Those no brand, cheap PSU’s will bring you nothing but trouble. Remember the quote: “I am not rich enough to buy shitty products.”

@Aliitp2 why Aerocool Product? This power supply looks good but I have never seen any review about them before, I haven't seen any miner talk about this PSU too, why don't you find an EVGA Power supply? I can guarantee you that you won't have any problem with this product, many miners are using this power supply too.

1. 8 gig ram is enough for your mining rig, I have 6 gigs in mine (4/2 GB RAM) and it runs well.

2. You can use any CPU with your mining rig, low end CPU like Celeron are good because they consume fewer watts, since you won't be doing CPU mining it's a good pair.

3. Find the Asrock H510 motherboard, this is a mining build motherboard with 6 PCIe slots, meaning you will have an extra empty slot to add a GPU later

There is also a BIOSTAR TZ590 which is also a dedicated mining motherboard with more slots and its LGA1200, this has 9 PCIe slots for GPUs

These motherboards are available on Amazon right now, Good luck and happy mining.

hi

am planning to buy new components for a new rig build (before i had two servers lying around so used those for my previous builds) and I have a decent experience putting the parts together...

the GPUs am having will be 2x 3090s | 2x 3080 Ti(s) | 1x 3070 Ti ((ALL EVGA))

from what am hearing the lowest CPU, RAM and Board are needed, i mine using NICEHASH, and windows 11, is 8 GB of ram enough ?

as for the CPU is this ok or can i get away with something cheaper ? Intel Celeron G5905 LGA 1200 (45$ USD)

this is the frame am getting will it accommodate two PSUs and is the material OK ?

What board will support 5x PCI-E slots ? coz its kinda tricky sourcing those on LGA 1200 !... Huh

how much wattage will i need spread across 2x PSUs ?

one final fatal question Grin

I will probably need lots of 8-pin connectors, if splitters didn't do the trick, can i get away (for those high end cards) with 4-pin molex connectors (not sata) to power up the risers ?...

thanks...

i came across those AeroCool 1000w PSUs at a great deal for just 100$ USD each !! (will get two)
https://www.amazon.com.tr/AeroCool-LUX1000-kayna%C4%9F%C4%B1-1000W-alt%C4%B1n-90/dp/B08YJQZZD6/ref=sr_1_2?__mk_tr_TR=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&crid=9K066GJT0R9K&keywords=1000w+psu+rgb&qid=1651471227&sprefix=1000w+psu+rgb%2Caps%2C100&sr=8-2

review: https://aerocool.io/product/lux-1000w/

they got plenty of cabling but am only worried coz the 8pin cables are as short as 450mm, do you guys think thats long enough in a mining rig frame or not ??
