1.Choose the space where to place your Cryptocurrency Mining Rigs
Before you read this article in detail, if you want to get an overview of what requirements you have to fulfil in general, we invite you to read our article «The 5 steps to follow to mine cryptocurrencies from home».» by clicking here
In a phase completely prior to assembly and purchase, you will have to think about space. where you are going to place your cryptocurrency rigs and how many units you are going to set up, It is not the same to have one mining rig installed as it is to have ten in the same space. That is why it is important to know the site and its electrical installation. Make sure that the electrical installation allows for the connection of a mining rig. and knowing your monthly consumption is part of the research you need to do so that you don't get a false alarm every now and then if you decide to switch on several appliances one day.
We will give real examples of cases we have come across
- People choosing as the ideal space for the installation of the cryptocurrency Rig, their own room in the house where they sleep. Serious mistake because if the bed is too close to the Rig, you will not be able to rest peacefully due to the noise of the fans, the GPUs and the heat they emit (in summer, unbearable).
- People choosing as space for the installation of the cryptocurrency Rig, the garage or storage room of your home where you do not get wifi properly. Serious mistake because if the internet connection is down or poor, your mining rig will disconnect from time to time and you will lose hours of GPU mining.
2.Check the ventilation of the space where you will place your Cryptocurrency Mining Rigs
Another aspect, closely related to the previous one, is to check that the space where you mount your mining rigs have external or internal ventilation. (e.g. a window or if the space has doors through which the hot air that is generated when the mining rig has been running for hours on end can escape. Quick example:
- People choosing as the ideal space for the installation of the cryptocurrency Rig a 3m square room that will remain with the door closed and without external ventilation from any window. This is a serious mistake, as your Rig will end up with scorched graphics cards due to the high temperatures that will be reached after several days of non-stop mining.
3.Inform yourself about what material buy, the best graphics cards and the right components to set up a mining rig.
The most important thing to be able to mine cryptocurrencies from your home, is choosing the best graphics cards and components, as the return on your investment will clearly depend on this. You should know how many megahertz “mh” each graphics card offers, what watts it consumes and whether its price is market price or overpriced or a bargain. Our advice is to have a look at the calculations at whattomine to find out what each graphics card offers. Let's take a real example:
- Some people buy a 30% more expensive than it should be, so it will probably take them more months to recoup their investment. Knowing how to buy graphics cards is one of the most difficult parts of the project.
4.Inform yourself about how to mount e install a mining rig and make it work properly
Now comes the part where you need to understand exactly how to set up a mining rig and know how to boot it from the motherboard to configure all the graphics cards correctly. You will probably also get errors and even possible failures in the connection of the components during the installation. Be sure to watch videos on youtube or other channels where each step is explained in detail. Above all, before starting any purchase, be very clear about the steps to follow for the assembly because it is not easy at all. A real example would be:
- Thinking that watching a tutorial on how to set up a mining rig has nothing to do with putting it into practice, we recommend that you first practice with an expert so that you don't make any wrong connections or you might even burn a graphics card or a badly connected component.
5.Carry out the maintenance journal of your Cryptocurrency Mining Rigs
The final part is about making a correct maintenance of your mining Rig, in order to be able to mine as many cryptocurrencies as possible. generating a minimal invalid share and stale share rate. You will clearly achieve this with your mining software. We always recommend using HiveOs because it is the most sophisticated tool on the market. Real example:
- They came to us with a mining rig where the graphics cards were performing so much better than recommended that the invalid ratio generated was taking away commission so they were not mining more or extending the life of the graphics cards.
