But I am a SUPER geek and I have build so many custom things just to get in the top 10 on futuremark or in the old days to get to first place! (Futuremark benchmarking the faster user computers in the world)1.) Which operating system to install?2.) Which motherboard?3.) Which CPU?4.) Which memory?5.) Which power supply?6.) Which hard drive?7.) Which video cards and how many?8.) What to mine?9.) How to build the system with racks to hold the video cards, motherboard, hard drive, power supply...I will go over these one at a time.1.) Which OS:Well there are limits and it depends on which CPU, how many video cards are you going to use. Linux has no limit on video cards you can use use as many as you like! But make sure Linux drivers work for the cards! I haven't had a problem with any Nvidia cards 750 to 1080's all work. But AMD/ATI cards no so much. :( Windows 7 you... less

CPU's can mine but unless you have a very fast one it will take a year to make $10. :)All the cards have a 100 MHz overclock on memory only. There wasn't enough gain going above 100 MHz to be worthkilling the video cards. (you will see a slight gain at +50MHZ on the clock and 125 to 150MHZ on memory) I ran each coin for 10 minutes to see an average speed. Of course the speedsare always changing up and down. So I went with the lowest average speed.First thing I learned was buying 1080's or 1080 TI's is just a huge waste of money. Unless you really just don't have the space. The best hash for the cash are the EVGA 1060's you get about 20 MH/s on Ethereum, 1080 SC 23, 1080 TI 28 to 30. So for about $310 you get 20 to 22 (using the GUI - higher in console miners) for $700 to $1,000 you get 23, for $1,100 to $1,400 you get 28!Three EVGA GTX 1060's get 60 to 66 MH/s for... less

FIRST Dump the UEFI boot & Secure boot, boot legacy, set your sata drives to RAID but don't create a raid partition. If you're using a single drive create one NTFS partion on the back of the drive. Install Windows 8, 8.junk or 10 on the front of the drive (IN THE FREE SPACE) it will make both of it's partitions (or three for Windows 10). 100 to 200meg system partition & the windows operating system.If you only have one hard drive you can use separate partitions.
