How To Build Your Own GPU Mining Rig

How To Build A Mining Rig for Ethereum, Monero and other Digital Currencies.

Spoiler:

You do not have to run 6 high powered, super efficient graphics cards for your first mining rig – you can start mining with just one budget GPU graphics card installed in your desktop computer. No need for additional power supply, no DIY computer box, no extra fans and no need to learn command line computer skills. Just download the NiceHash Miner – it will test your Hashing Power and automatically mine the most profitable coins for you, and pay you with one simple currency… Bitcoin.
