My First mining rig! Ethereum (176mh/s) - Turned a profit in 46 days!! - Jesse Pinkman - May 3, 2017
Hey HF, what do you think of this rig I slopped together in about 4 days?
4/27/2017 (day of amazon order placed for parts) ->
Today, 6/12/2017, rig is officially 'paid off'
The rig paid itself off ($2000) in approximately 46 days!

The 500 series for the Sapphire graphics cards are basically brand new, so these cards are top of the line right now!!
24 mh/s each card without overclocking
~30 mh/s with modded bios.
If you'd like to see my earnings with the current rig, you can here:

Damn dude, you should definitely look at other coins too - possibly check out https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=5297703
It mines the most profitable at the time and would be chill

That's some cool stuff you got there. Nice video!
Can you update us how many Mh/s you get when you overclock your GPU's?

How much did it cost you to build this?
And how long do you think it will take before you make back the money?
Also, how much do you think you'll be making each day?

The cost was right around 1900$ (I re-invested my BTC earnings to diversify)
I estimate between 6-8 months, hopefully sooner if the price keeps soaring!
As of now ill be making between 10-12$ a day.

Is this included the power cost?
Also, how much do you spend each day on electricity running it?
Congratulations with the build, seems great.

It's a lot quieter than I thought it was going to be. What was the total cost to set it up?
* - Iridian - May 3, 2017
Did you BIOS mod them yet? I'm going to be building a mining rig soon, probably will be getting 6 rx 470s or 570s. They both have same performance, 570 is more power effiecent

Looking very very cool! I might think about setup my own rig, but it is unlikely to be.
How much time it takes you to mine 1 ETH coin?
And what address you're mining to?

Some ppl saying you should mine smth else which is more profitable.
But I think you should mine eth, right now it's 10-12 a day, but if you hold on to those and ETH price doubles it basicly means you mined 20-24 a day :^)
yussss
Nice rig dude
