so im planning on upgrading my 1060 3gb this week i found someone selling vega 56s  for $120 usd, so i plan on buying 2 of them, so i can mine and game with em, so are they worth 120  or should i pass on them and try to find something else and 250 is really the top of my budget right now. plz help, and thank you for reading my post :D

for profit or for fun? because you're definitely not gonna be making a profit this late in crypto's lifecycle.

 

Also what specific PSU do you have? Vega is demanding.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

theres new  coins coming out all the time so if i can get into one while its 1 cent and it goes up to 50 cents or so id be happy, as long as it can pay for the electricity its using than its ok but  im mostly concerned about the gaming aspect of it

A single vega 56 is already a huge boost. Again, what specific power supply are you going to use?

 

also make sure to quote us so we see your responses

i have a rosewill 1000watt its kinda old but it gets the job done lol 

Vega needs a power supply with a strong transient response, doesn't matter what the wattage is if it isn't very good. What model Rosewill PSU is it?
