Ryzen Mining Rig

[ThatOneEdgyBoy]

Quick question I am working on building a GPU mining rig would a Ryzen 3 1200 be bottlenecked by a GTX 1650 super? I will add more graphics cards down the road would that need me to upgrade my CPU?

Most likely not, people used the cheapest celeron on intel platforms and adds as much GPUs as possible with PCIE risers.

Please do your research before buying into this.

 

Most coins that are still viable to mine do not require any CPU power at all, other than it having enough PCI lanes. In that sense, a CPU can hardly bottleneck a single GPU.

But that said, many coins aren't viable to mine on GPU's anymore. Plus a single GPU mining system.. Not worth it in most cases. Especially with a low-end GPU like a 1650 Super.

 

So if you don't know that stuff yet, you should seriously do a lot more research before throwing away money hoping to make money back.
