800usd for gpus for mining.

[BLT_Sharpies]

I was thinking that 2 1080s would be the best. I also would like to put the earning back into more gpus. Any ideas?

This is also the rig im looking at. It has no risers or anything so its just the bare bones

Would be best to get anything newer and efficient. Gonna be hard to get into with the current market. The time its gonna take you to get 800 back for ROI then invest in more cards, old 10 series cars profitability goes down more and more. If you have a decent pc, could just put 2/3/4 cards in that and invest in some kinda rig later once roi is reached and you have the parts.

3060's and ti's. First gen, unless the dual mining trick is still working for lhr cards.

If i sold my 1080 for say 450, I could get two 3060s. Around how much would i be making? According to nice hash, It would be around 7.80 excluding pc power consumtion. Also would i need to upgrade the psu for the 2 3060s?

Well if thats what it says, its always close as an estimate. Comes down to what you mine and your settings. Then exclude fee's depending on the minor and pool being used and transfer/withdraw fees.

Would my 650 watt psu work for the 2 3060s?

Sure, would be quite close but you should under powering them a bit anyway. Assuming you trust it for 24/7 operation.
