Topic: Some questions about hardware and my budget (Read 111 times)
Six Vega 56's. 1900 h/s per card. 0.6% pool fee. 0.10 KWH. Check the average price of XMR over the past month and do the math. Of course there are some trading fees in there if you're trying to get to USD, but they are minimal.
If you can get your hands on a Vega, I'd mine XMR with it. You can also look at ETN, but I'm very happy with what my Vega 56's are doing with XMR right now. I haven't looked into ETH with a Vega. I thought I saw some stats that were not as good as XMR somewhere.
Could you share your setup and Hash/s ? It'll be awesome and how much does it gives you daily?

They all have about the same performance. I like Sapphire Nitro+ because they are easy to Bios mod and have good cooling. Powercolor Red Dragon RX 570 4GB is also a good card. Asus is good, I don't like Gigabyte cards.
If you want to mine Cryptonight, see if you can get RX 570 4GB cards. That will give you the best cost/hash with a limited budget, around 850-900 H/s each. You don't need an i3 for a mining rig, a Pentium like the G4400 is enough. You also need 4GB of RAM and PCI-E risers.

Thanks for your answer, after all I could have it:
EX-RX570-O4G or GV-RX570AORUS-4GD are around 380USD each, so I could get 3 of these GPUs, after all it would be:
Asrock H110 Pro 13 PCIe LGA 1151 ~ Around 365USD
Corsair 1000W 80 Plus Gold Modular RM1000X - CP-9020094 ~ Around 290 USD
3x GPUs - Around 1200 USD
Pentium G4400 - 70 USD
RAM 4GB DDR4 24400 Mhz - 90 USD
Is there a specific manufaturer I should look at GPUs? As you can see above Asus/Gigabyte are on the same price, thanks for Risers link btw, I'll be ordering it asap.
According to Whattomine, I would be getting around $6.77/day in ETH, if I choose to mine ETH should I change anything?:

Ok, so i have a few questions about which hardware should I buy to start mining alt coins, atm i'm trying to mine ETN on my home PC (GTX 980 4 GB), it gives me around 400 H/s.
I have a budget of around 2000USD, however on my country hardware are expensive, this is what I could see for that price.
Asrock H110 Pro 13 PCIe LGA 1151 ~ Around 365USD
Corsair 1000W 80 Plus Gold Modular RM1000X - CP-9020094 ~ Around 290 USD
Intel i3 7100 LGA 1151 ~ Around 150 USD
4x EX-GTX1050TI-O4G ~ Around 250USD each or 1 VEGA 64 8GB for 1000USD
That will sum around 1800USD, kWh is around 0,13 USD,
That said, what should I change? Please help me, because I'm kinda new to mining.
I'd like to mine ETN, ETH or XMR and i'll be using the profit to upgrade and get more GPUs, so it's a med/long-term investment.
