      Hey all,

      Im going to build my first mining rig during this week only im not really a computer expert. :-[

      i made a list maybe someone with more experience can have a look at it too judge and tell me if im right.

      Here i have that what i choose its this motherboard: (price 85 €)
      ASRock 970 Extreme4, socket AM3+ moederbord ( 3x pcie 16x)
      [url=http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme4/?cat=Specifications]http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970 Extreme4/?cat=Specifications[/url]

      this processor: (price 120 €)
      AMD FX-6300
      (“Vishera”, boxed)
      [url=http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/320105/amd-fx-6300-black-edition.html]http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/320105/amd-fx-6300-black-edition.html[/url]

      And this power supply; (price 140 €)
      Aerocool Strike-X EN53761, 1100 Watt
      [url=http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/309570/aerocool-strike-x-1100w/specificaties/]http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/309570/aerocool-strike-x-1100w/specificaties/[/url]

      What do you think about this setup

      Linux on us or portable hardisk & the ddr-3 ram is not so expansive.
      All will be sorted in a crate with 3 GPU cards around 300 watt each (r9 280x)

      Hope to be mining with more the 700 hz/s soon with you all

      idea from 700 to 2800 hz/s

      Kind regards,

        Are you going to use it only for mining? If so, you can buy a much cheaper CPU :).

          I would recommend a motherboard MSI or Gigabyte for many hours working at high temperatures without relief.

          Some A3 processor, without much power to avoid a lot of heat. ;)
