    Mining on gpus kills the cards?
     
    Bits be trippn asked if anyone is willing to work with him to test out very used gpus and run them through test to see if the performance does go down.  I figure Linus tech group would be ideal as y’all really go all out and test the extremes of limitations.

    Somewhere around 1200$ or 1400-1500 AUD. Its a really good computer, and should easily sell. A new PC with those specs is probably around 1700-1800 AUD. Not sure how pricing and such is down in Australia.

    I think i would go with ryzen here, although i would save a bit of money and get the R5 1600 instead of the 1600X you can just overclock it the same

    Please define Hard Drive experts
    I Guess many People have input they want to share.
     
    I have read through your thread and I am wondering about your drive setup.
    Do you have 4 drives were:
    Disk 0: 240GB
    Disk 1: 500GB
    Disk 2: 500GB
    Disk 3: 1000GB
     
    Or 4 drives were:
    Disk 0: 240GB
    Disk 1: 500GB
    Disk 2: 500GB
    Disk 3: 500GB  (and something went wrong when using Raid 0 on the motherboard Controller)?
     
    Reading the thread again, I think it is the latter.
    What you should do, is og back to the motherboard raid-Controller software and redo the Raid.
    You can do this without having any other harddrives Connected to the computer so you do not accidently destroy your OS disk.
     
    So, in short. Turn off your computer.
    Remove the drives you do not want to raid (disconnect the Sata-cables)
    Open the Raid-software when available.
    Follow your manual's instructions on how to disassemble the incorrect raid
    Do the same for re-creating the raid.
    Turn off your computer again.
    Re-Connect the Sata-cables and boot Windows to see if the issue persist.

    If you don't need a cpu now, i would wait. 
    200$ gets you an i5 7500 atm. Thats a locked chip with 4cores 4 threads at 3.4ghz. Ryzen 5 won't clock significantly higher than ryzen 7, but it will sure as hell clock higher than 3.4ghz, more than making up for the small ipc gap. It will also have more cores and/or more threads. 
    Not to mention you'll probably be running a mid range gpu like the 1060 or 480, which will be the bottleneck, not the cpu.
