Here is a graph that can explain you – You can clearly see that GTX 1070 stands out in MH/s. I have been using GTX 1070 till date without any problem. One GTX 1070 consumes 150W of power. So, GTX 1070 is best ethereum mining card we are going to use in this mining build. 6 GPU Ethereum Mining Rig Build Our ETH mining rig will consist of – • • • • • • • • • Every hardware is listed below. Also, I have done my part of explaining each and every hardware. You will not have any problem in assembling them.

You will need 6 of them. As we are assembling you will need 6 of them. If you are low on budget you can always start with 4 of them and periodically increase them. GTX 1070 uses 150W of power which is also great.

Each Graphics Cards will output – 32 Mh/s. So with 6 of them, you will have – 32 x 6 = 192 Mh/s. Cryptonex CNX Mining Calculator on this page. Also, if you go with GTX 1070 for you will get – 450 Sol/s. I.e if you think you could not mine Ethereum at one point you can periodically shift. This particular EVGA Geforce GTX 1070 comes with 8GB GDDR5 memory and has 2 fans to keep the graphics card cool.

To maintain all the cost we are going with GTX 1070. Update – Most of the time you could not find GTX 1070 you will have to go with GTX 1070ti which is the lastest version and is better than GTX 1070. Ever since Im building new cryptocurrency mining rigs Im including SSD rather than HDD.

The reason is SSD are fast and by using SSD I would increase the transfer speed and decrease the time. Also other things that I think about SSD are – They use less power consuming and also if you are starting up your mining rig the boot time is reduced and soon you will be mining. I would also recommend you buying an SSD as it is just little bit expensive than HDD. So, you don’t have to buy any 240 GB SSD or; higher 120GB is enough. The only things that will be going on the SSD will be OS, Drivers & mining software. It is often hard to select required PSU. Some of you might select a PSU that is way more less than the required powersupply.

When you select the Power Supply Unit for the mining rig you will only use 80% of the total that can be supplied by the PSU. E.g, If you require about 1000W of power you will not buy 1000W PSU you will buy 1200W PSU. By doing so you will be on the safer side. So, lets calculate our required power supply – 1 GPU consumes = 150W of Power; So, 6 GPU consumes -6 X 150 = 900 W of power. Additionally – 200 W of power might be consumed by motherboard, CPU, SSD, etc. So, using 1200W PSU will be good.

So, how are you going to power on this mining rig. This ain’t using any ATX cabin and there isn’t any button to start. To be sure, we have to buy ATX Power Switch. ATX Power Switch is something that is a wire that will attach to the motherboard and other end of the wire acts as a button to start and turn off the rig. This is one of the smallest componant but you must not miss this one.

It is very easy to attach. Whenever you buy this – Buy it with other componants too, cutting out the extra costs. OS Choosing your operating system for now might not be hard. If you are familiar with Windows then you can use Windows for mining. Linux is even good as you will cut out the costs. But especially if you are going to use this mining rig for mining Ethereum you can go with Mining Pool It is also important which mining software and pool you use. I would recommend you using as a software.

And for the pool from last few months I have been using I recieved regular payments of ETH and they have low fees incomparison to other pools. Conclusion With this particular Ethereum Mining Rig you can actually mine about $379 of Ethereum every month and this is probably good.

Update – As the price of Ethereum has gone up above $750. You will be able to mine more than $500/ month with this mining rig. This Ethereum mining rig can run fine in 2018. But, here is a good trick that keeps me going – When I mine Ethereum I do not sell it immediately I wait till the prices of Ethereum has gone up. By this way my return of investment is met very early. But, always remember that when you invest in mining rig you do not loose money instead you earn money.

The thing is when you buy a mining rig you can mine as much as you can. But when the time comes when you dont want to mine you can always resell and there are hundreds who will buy your rig. Graphics cards can be resold. Total ~ $3593 (Estimated) Save Save Save Save.

What is Ether? Ether is a necessary element — a fuel — for operating the distributed application platform Ethereum. It is a form of payment made by the clients of the platform to the machines executing the requested operations. To put it another way, ether is the incentive ensuring that developers write quality applications (wasteful code costs more), and that the network remains healthy (people are compensated for their contributed resources). If you just want to test the technology, you probably don't need real ether. And switch to the Test Network.
