“Rig 1.0” – My First Crypto Mining Rig

This is my first attempt at getting into GPU Crypto mining and an attempt at documenting me building out the chasse to house all of the components. I was really curious about getting into Cryptocurrency mining.

I have no peers other than fellow mining enthusiasts in the game already teaching others about building rigs in general. So, I took my creativity, enthusiastic attitude, and desire to learn and studies from others and built my first rig.

I purchased a single CNmuca BTC S37 Miner Motherboard CPU Set 8 Video Card Slot motherboard that has 8 PCIe slots for 8 GPUs, an 8GB Single Laptop Notebook PC Computer Memory Module, a 1800W Mining Power Supply, a Kingston 240GB A400 SATA 3 2.5″ Internal SSD hard drive, a few ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce GTX 1660 Super Overclocked 6GB Edition HDMI DP DVI Gaming Graphics Cards, and began my build of a custom rig frame/chassis. They make some online, and I ordered one or two and they didn’t seem to do the trick or fit with pre-fab open-aired chassis.

So, I decided to build my own as those in the mining community seem to like to make their own. I had some extra wood laying around, so I figured why not? Combine power tools, woodworking, and some computer building into a fun Crypto project using Hive OS. Use promo code “zpent” minus the quotes so I can get a kickback if you sign up and start using Hive OS. I would highly recommend using Hive OS for this type of mining project.
