RE: My Personal PC Mining.

in #mining7 years ago

Would you consider these specs to be around the bare minimum to do something like this? I've just gotten into crypto in the last few months and am still learning about the mining side of things. I never would have thought to see those specs for something like this.

Sort:  

This was more my gaming PC that i am just running mining software on when I'm not gaming on it. the 980ti it a beast of a card still and is still better than a 1070 for gaming. however for mining you don't really want to go these specs. The motherboard is a horrible motherboard as the VRM overheats and is a common problem which as you probably know and overheating is not good for a mining rig.
If you are going for minimum go for a GTX 1060 card (If you can find one) and the processor can be cheap but its all about the motherboard.
