The total build cost for this rig was around $2500. Much of the equipment was gifted. I'm hopeful that I can build more in the same price range by building my own frames and getting cards wholesale.

Can you tell me how much ETH generates every day, please?

Sure! This is day one and it's pointing all generated funds at the new AlphaMiner wallet so I'll get an accurate daily reading for you tomorrow, but it will be gimped until I can get all 6 cards operational and fully up to speed. I've seen reports of this card hashing at 28 Mh/s with custom modified BIOS and the right overclock settings, basically meaning it's going ~60%

Hardly wait to see the result! Thanks a lot!

The miner ran into issues today so I decided to rebuild the OS.. The whole thing is currently offline until I can revisit it in the morning. The good news is that for a 12 hour slice, at the rate I was hashing and the current rate of exchange, I was generating about $12 worth a day in Sia and Ethereum. I'll post another follow-up once it's all spun up.

I think you made a very good investment. In maximum 2 months you should recover your investment. Thanks for updating and waiting for news about evolution.
