I am on steemit resently, but i noticed lots of articles about cryptocurrencies , mining and farms. And I tell you what, it turned out in funny affair. I red your posts, looked hundreds videos on YouTube and decided to start to mining too!
How I did it? I broke my piggy money box. Actually to combine construction I should've bought only a few things: 4 video cards (and one extra for installing in my PC for gaming), 4 USB 3.0 riser and armor, because I have already had some old hardware in garage and I was woundered if i can used them. I think its a way to save money.
And everything was good until comes time to set up device on platform. It was some kind challenge! I understood then I just can`t order a frame, I realized that I have to do it by myself. I want to building shop and bought wooden sticks, bolts, bars and saws. Telling truth I have never did such works so I twisted up this structure during two days.
Well, during works I burned down a few motherbords (bridges went out of order). If you have old hardwear use it, but be careful if you decide buy used hardwares, i think its more safe to buy a new one (and do not risk)!
In short it is what I have.
Power blocks 1x850, 1x650.
A little about acceleration:
Power limit: 65
Core clock: 800
Memory clock : 0
Fan speed: 60%
GPU0 t=67C, GPU1 t=56C, GPU2 t=58C , GPU3 t=59C
What do you think about my assembling? Maybe you can give me advice hove to organize it more correctly and esyer?
I am mining ETC now. I don`t have some kind separate wallet, so I keep my coins on burse. Previously I was on Poloniex, but
due to the fact that thair politic seems to me aimed against miners and other problems I moved to Bittrex. Bittrex has friendly interface even for new one. I really enjoy it!

And the last thing I`d like to say in this post. I would like to have a conversation with people who really understand this and can give me useful advices.!
