Change the PSU to a decent unit. Something like the Pure Power 10 or CX450M.

Don't get an A320 board, get a B350 board and overclock the CPU.

£20 more, but has a 120GB SSD.

i was looking up the TA320-BTC mainboard ... and ... omg ...

 

i know mainboards and other components have had "gamer" in the name for over a decade now to make it more appealing to a certain customer type ... but i never seen a component labeled "miner" ... shit's getting serious.

 

what next ?
