Have an idea to repurpose my old case and mobo/cpu which will eventually be upgraded this year I hope
What is needed for cryptomining? I have an i5-8600k atm on an Asus maximus x hero wifi loaded with 4 8 gb corsair 2400mhz ram
Could I have 3x 3060 ti on that for mining 24/7 or is there minimum requirements for mining outside of the gpu itself
This is plan for later this year of course since just getting one card for myself for gaming is being a pain, just an idea I had since I have this corsair 750d case which will be collecting dust now that I have the lian li o11d xl 😆
Pretty sure everyone missed this 😑
the cpu is more then good the mobo is fine. you may need a 850 watt psu.
the cards can be set to 130 watts each on msi afterburner. which is 390/450 the cpu and mobo are 50-60 more. so a constant 510 watts. but cooling may be an issue. and once in a while afterburner drops watt setting and cards go to full tcp of 250 watts.
If I built a 2x 3060ti rig I would be more confidant than a 3 card rig. for 24/7/365 mining.
this is and enclosed rig in a case. which can do mining or gaming or both if you only mine with a card.
it is the type of rig I build for many people. I like a lower power card like the 3060ti as I know the watt settings space out and go to full tdp. so in a magical world of phil gets the gear he wants I would have built 5 to 10 of these 2 card 3060ti rigs already.
