hello everyone and welcome to another man in chamber video in today's video we will be building
this rx 580 rig will be using six graphic cards with the better frame we won't be covering the
build step-by-step since we already have a video that goes over that which we will leave the links
for in the description below but instead we will be covering the finance part of this rig so we'll
be covering the electricity costs the rig costs and how much money you can make and when to expect
to break even so if you have any questions please leave them in the comment section below and we
hope you guys enjoy the video for this mining rig we will be using the better frame that we built in
the competition between the crypto mind youtubers it was a fun community activity so if you guys
haven't watched it yet we will leave the link of all three parts in the description below and for
the GPUs we are using the RX 5 ATS 8 gigabyte model we have 2 different variations of these
cards we couldn't really find any informations about why is there two variants but one of
them requires only one 8 pin and then the other requires 2 8 pins to power on and then there heat
sinks are also different and as for the risers we will be using the you bet risers to connect
the GPUs for the motherboard we will be using the Asus b250 mining expert with an Intel Celeron g3
901 stick of 4 gigabyte RAM and since we will be money on Windows 10 then for storage we will use
120 gigabyte SSD our power supply is a courser HX 400 it has three PCI n strands with 2 8 and
8 which means we have a total of 6 8 pins that we can use and since we will have to run 6 GPUs that
will take more than 6 8 pins that means we will be using as much splitters as we need to power
on all the GPUs and as many risers as possible as well and then finally we are using a mini
LCD screen just to monitor the rig physically and it does add a great look to the monitor
we finally finished the bill but since we have only three PCIe strands with two 8-pin each we
ended up using a splitter for each a pin we have and we still cut short and we were not able to
power four risers with the six pin connectors so instead we use some SATA 2 6 pin adapters
for now until we can get some more PCIe strands we do not recommend powering risers with SATA
for any cards that use high amount of watts so if you're using Radeon sevens or NER txseries cards
please make sure to power the risers with a 6-pin connector without using any Sita or molix adapters
now that we finished building the mining rig we will go ahead and boot it up we have everything
pre-installed since the SSD in the mining rig was being used by the same ring before all the drivers
and overclocks are set and we also have claim or minor installed but before we start mining
there are a couple of important things that we want to bring to attention if you're using the
rx 500 or 400 series cards I recommend downloading the AMD Radeon 19 point 12.5 so you can flip your
GPUs to compute mode which helps with hash rate enormous Lee I was not able to find that option
in the new radio and drivers user interface so I just stuck with the nineteen point 12.1 version
and I had no problems with that at all and for our overclock settings we use the configuration
that we have on our website we changed a core and memory frequency using MSI Afterburner and
then we under bolted the GPUs using the radio and driver software we save the undervolt as a profile
just so it is easier to apply on multiple GPUs by clicking load profile make sure to apply all the
settings and under bolts to all the GPUs and if you have any questions please let us know and now
let's take a look at our climber miner since we are using our X cards we set and our strip the
parameter rx boost with the value of 21 and scrap with the value of 6 both of these improve your
mining efficiency and increase your hash rate it all depends on what GPU you are using we will go
more in depth about the command-line arguments for claimer miner in a video very soon so now
we should be getting almost 30 mega hashes we can push more into overclocks or we can mod the bias
for the GPUs and then like that we will be able to achieve more with using less amount of power but
we will cover that more also in another video we are getting a total of 180 mega hashes and we are
using around managing 10 watts mining etherium now let's calculate how much this rig costs to
build and then we will take these numbers to the profit calculator and see when will we break even
these prices won't be I could but there still will be close enough please make sure to look for use
deals and you can also visit nerd gears comm to find some good prices for hardware so for our
GPUs we have 6 msi RX 5 80s which costed us about $110 per GPU and the Ubud risers which costed us
$40 for 6 pieces the asa speed 250 money expert motherboard costs around $70 but we were able to
get it used for $40 the g3 900 Celeron processor costs about $40 and less I found used the SSD 120
gigabyte costs only $15 the ram we are using is just one stick of 4 gigabyte ram which you can
get anywhere for $20 and the better frame costs about $40 when it used to be available but we were
lucky enough to receive one from red panda mining which we really appreciate and for the sake of the
video we will just put the cost as $40 for now the corsair HX 1200 watts power supply costs it has
$180 and we purchased some additional splitters for $40 which ended up to be a total of $220 the
RGB fans costs around $45 and then finally the mini LCD screen can be found for $40 or less so
the total cost of this mining rig is a thousand and one hundred and sixty dollars now the next
step is to put these values in a mining profits calculator the one we will be using is from watt
to mine comm so we will put the values we got and our electric rate will be five cents per
kilowatt hour as we can see this mining rig will make $3.59 per day at the current price of the
etherium being at $239 our electricity cost will be one dollar nine cents so after the electricity
cost we will make 2.49 in profit per day monthly we will be able to make seventy four dollars and
eighty cents and profits which means our mining rig will take about 15 months to break-even you
can feel free to visit the site and put in your own electric rate and see how long it will take
you to break-even we will leave the link in the descriptions below in conclusion we think this
mining rig is not bad for being your first mining rig since it is more also on the cheaper end and
it is best to my new theory Amanda Tanen classic since they are the most profitable on the rxy BT
GPUs alright everyone thank you for watching this video if you enjoyed this video please
leave a thumbs up and if you have any questions let us know in the comment section below so if
you do need a step-by-step guide to build your mining you can visit our previous video that
we made about building a mining rig or you can just let us know and then we can remake
another with more details so thank you guys again and we hope you have a wonderful day
