Calling All Mining Specialists
Hello,
I am looking to invest 10k into mining.
I am looking for the optimum build which includes electricity costs at 10 cents per kWh.
If you have any build suggestions please include every single part as I have no extra equipment and will need to buy everything. I am talking risers, OS, everything etc...
I really appreciate the help and vast amount of knowledge on this forum.
Thank you

I can only compare with the price in my country.
For 10k i would get around 700-800mh/s.
There are so manny factors.
A 390rig needs more power=bigger psu=more costs. 180mh/s for ~1500w
A 480rig needs less power=smaller psu=less costs. 140mh/s for ~700w
And so on.
But there are people here with more experience.
Does anyone have full parts list for several 480 builds?
6x rx480 8GB sapphire á 260€
6x riser á 15€
120GB ssd 50€
Psu corsair rm1000x/i or equal 160???€ (not sure)
Asrock h81 pro btc or asrock h97 aniversary 40-70€
4gb ddr 3 ram 30-50€
Cheap lga1150 CPU 30-50€
Shoerack iron 10€
Something forgotten?
Win 10 or Ethos.
I think I am going to do something like this
http://karldiab.com/EthereumMiningCalculator/
Using this calculator with 6 x 480's (140Mh/s for 700Watts)
$1700 USD per rig, you might get it cheaper with a bulk purchase.
That would include H97 MB, cheap 4GB RAM and CPU, 850 EVGA gold, USB risers V5 a SSD and free Win 10.
With current value $13.03 USD, with 7 rigs, your 4 almost 5 months till ROI.
Not factoring in heat dissipation(AC or fans), new 20 or 15amp circuits, downtime, plus time to get 42 480's(currently sold out).
Of course there is always that chance the price will skyrocket.
Corrected a couple of the numbers and added more to the list.
I am looking at http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B01J1M4BZ2/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&condition=all&tag=nisa-20&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

The memory clock is much higher on the 8GB, is it possible for the 4GB to clock to the same amount?
I read that memory clock is the only factor
@Everyone, why do you even respond to those threads? Don't support this behaviour.
The others with 1000w
Undervolted yes, Stock no
I like to help, and you can save much time with the help from others, and one thing i learnd most since iam mining, time is money, miningtime is more money xD
And it is one thing to help others with a hobby but as this is also a way of investing i dislike the attitude of those thread starters.
"This is what i want, now tell me how to get there ASAP. I don't know anything about anything, so please be very specific."
You can find many threads like that over the last weeks. Ill better just leave the forum.
Start with one rig and see if you get the hang of it cause even the little things like getting 6 Gpus on one motherboard working can be tricky.
I do often help people here at forums and other places, but i agree with @Balgun that you shouldn't just expect people to give you answers when you know nothing, learn the basics first. You could have found answers to your OP with a very small amount of time spent reading through these forums, but if you're not ready to put some time and effort into your investment, maybe consider hiring someone to do the work for you. It only takes some hours to a couple of days to read up and learn how to build a rig or even a farm, and there are many forums and sites where components are discussed in great detail.
And if you ask a hundred people what is an optimum build, you will get 50 different answers, cause there is no such thing, except for what people perceive as such.
Even as someone that's built literallty 100s of computers, I would only build one rig at a time.
For my first build I will do rx 480s.
Is all of these parts https://orca.tech/Newegg.pdf but quantity only 1 instead all I would need with 6 GPUs?
But spending almost 25% of your order on Windows is crazy... If you're going for a big build/farm, use Linux.
And as for learning, it's good to read up on before starting, or before your parts arrive, cause otherwise you'll propably run into some kind of a problem at some point, maybe at 6x gpu, risers or miner software or something else, so it's better to be prepared a bit rather than have to come to the forums to ask questions and wait for an answer when you do run into a problem
