Poor Man's Mining Rig

Starting out, I used my components I have at home, the most common of which was an 1155 CPU way back when i3's were the norm. I am currently using and i3 3220 and an Asus motherboard which luckily has 3 pcie ports which could make a 3 card mining rig which I could upgrade to a 5 or 6 card mining rig with the 1155 socket (depending on cheap motherboard availability) or scale up a farm in the future if the market stays good. Stay tuned. Thanks

Hello And Welcome To My Mini Mining Blog As Of June 2018

So to get things started, I just started mining this month after all the cryptocurrency craze since it was only last march that our local cryptocurrency wallet started offering an ethereum wallet which directly cashes out to our local currency, bypassing the somewhat absurd transaction transfer fees involved when converting from coin to coin. Let's get started. Stay tuned and enjoy the ride in this mining world.
