    Hi. I really appreciate this video. I'm very new to mining and consider my self tech literate but definitely not techy. This video series is exactly what I needed to reduce the intimidation factor I feel in trying to go through the learning curve and see if I can actually become a minor. My question to you is how much time do you spend weekly on maintenance, checking on power usage, profitability, making changes...etc.? I have a family and other demands in my life so I want to get an idea of how much time this mining adventure will demand of me. Thank you again. You have helped a lot of people like me though these videos.

    Your a champion HM, I know a fair bit or enough lol but I am useless at tying it all together in one organized structured format. You my man, are the secret ingredient. You even use the word structure. I stopped asking you questions because the more videos I watch of your builds the more they get answered anyway. Previously I've said before my inability to get into mining sooner was actually a good thing, especially budget wise. You did a tremendous job on showing people how to enter into something with minimal cost and risk, Kudos bro, keep up the good work. I'll still continue to comment from the family farm downunder in what I hope to be the beginnings of bigger build, but because there is few people out here, I speak overly frequently on here! I think all the time learning was well spent last couple years, from machines to sheds to solar you fellas have all bases covered. Time for Part 2 and 3 ;)

I have an intel i5 processor and after watching this I bought a rig frame on amazon, not the one you had but a little more just to be safe. Im so close to getting it all together so I am excited to see the rest of this series. I think the hardest part is the first right build and getting the nerves up to do it, then the rest comes easier I feel. Keep up the good work

      I used to use SerpentX Tech's monthly build series as a guide. His are usually geared around $5,000 or so for 6 card rigs (and he uses scalped prices), but I found his PCPartPicker lists useful, in general, when I first started out. There weren't a lot of people doing a lot of these kinds of videos, though. The more, the merrier.

      @@fluffyball3347 Yep. I'm seeing a 1660Ti and a 2060 for $300 on FB marketplace at the moment, myself. I don't know for a fact, but I'm thinking Hobbyist is assuming you send people low ball offers and really work to land a deal on this stuff. Seems a little "advanced" to a beginner miner to me unless they have a friend locally that's showing them the ropes and advising them, step by step. I'd show a beginner this video, then tell them $600 is probably more realistic, but maybe you get lucky.

    This would be perfect except that GPU find is ridiculously cheap. He said it himself in the video that eBay sales of the same card were too much. The same exact card is selling for $400+ in my area, which was his budget for the entire build. The rest of the stuff is spot on, aside from the bronze PSU. If you're going to invest $ into this then a nicer (at least silver/gold) PSU should be a no-brainer.

    Great video as usual. One small change i would do, or what i did when i started back in 2013. Since o was really poor. Is skip the frame and the rizer. It's not needed untill you start buying your second or ,3th graphic card depending on the motherboard. (I started off with a 5 slot mobo with 2 PCI 16 slots. To save the 2 rizer slots at the start. And just set the motherboard ironically on the box it got delivered in. Just a real cheap ass solution but works ;).
    And a short fyi i am from the EU. But i see some disturbing messages about Newegg from gamernexus and such. Aspecially openbox. It might be an idea to skip them in your mentions but that's all to personal preference 😎

    Great series of videos coming up! However I truly believe that a person who is just feeling on what mining is, is more likely to start with Windows vs HiveOS. Based on that people are more familiar with Windows compared to Linux environment that could scare up the new miner. Even though HiveOS hides most of the Linux.

    • @magiclucky5152
      @magiclucky5152 2 года назад

      Agree 100%. I started out on NiceHash. I doubt I would have dove in all the way, had I not done that step first. I even learned how to comfortably Overclock using their OC Tune which really isn't half bad for a beginner. He was determined to stay under that $500 mark and that was one way he pulled it off (a $7 boot drive). A 240GB ADATA for $25 gets the job done, Windows and HiveOS alike. If I had to skip the cost of a frame, to start out as a beginner, I'd do that just so I could start on Windows.

    I looked at the reviews on this mining rig frame. I've always been curious about them because I've never used one. Not good. You get what you pay for. So, I was watching Altered Component's latest video and I'll just toss this out to all the newcomers on this kind of budget: Shoe rack. The bonus of buying it, besides being cheaper than a bad $40 mining frame, is if you decide mining is stupid you can regift it to your girlfriend or wife on your anniversary.

      You should buy a 1200w HP server power supply with a breakout board combo off of eBay for under $100 as for the Gpu Rx 6600s are available on Best Buy for $479

    All these equipments are 500$ why isn’t it better to spend 650$ on a new MSI laptop and start mining on it, at the end of the day you have a laptop and you can sell it if you want. Correct me if I’m wrong or if I got the whole idea wrongly please.

    To make a small rig with 3 of the 1070 GPU's, would you still get away with just a flash drive or does it need an SSD?

    Noob Question for OP. Do all the GPU’s require a 16x slot or will they work fine thru x1 slots? Trying to determin which mobo to get
    NM: google is our friend. Does’t matter with the use of the risers. 👍🏻

    Man, I paid 400 on Alibaba for a 570 8gb and got scammed, it never showed up in nicehash or task manager and couldn't get a refund. I also paid 100 bucks for a mining rig chassis, I've had terrible luck in trying to just start mining. Ive had mining hardware for almost 2 years now and its still not functional.

    i feel like you could have gone without the frame and the risers as a starting rig if you are unsure if you want to expand. You can get away with just putting the GPU on the motherboard directly and just putting the board on a shelf.

    • @TheHobbyistMiner
      @TheHobbyistMiner  2 года назад

      Totally agree. You could strip things down to a traditional desktop computer only. My mindset was as mentioned at the end, i wanted to keep a good balance of possible expandability but also keeping the budget in mind. Hence why "SOME" items where for expansion like the Frame and Motherboard.
