I remember only 6GB version supports SLI

Goona be tight squeeze with this budget.

How about these?

Core i7-7700K - 1526
Corsair Hydro H55 - 291
MSI Z270 Tomahawk - 770
Corsair 8GB DDR4-2133 X2 - 520
Zotac GTX 1070 8GB DDR5 Mini - 1929
WD Blue or Seagate 1TB - 212
Super Flower Leadex Gold 650W - 479
Corsair Spec case - 299
Samsung S24F350FH 23.6" monitor - 514

RM6540 total (C-Zone prices)

Bitcoin mining doesn't require GPU to run in SLI/CF mode, they all can run in solo mode and your mobo is able to support 2 GPU (first one will use PCIe x16 slot, another one will use PCIe x1 slot).

So what basically you need to change is PSU

[B][Budget] 2.5k

Price is much cheaper if using Intel G456, but whether it worth in the long run up to 5 years?
Currently I still using my Acer Aspire 5741G, it's been more than 5 years =X

5 years? Not with this budget. DOTA 2 should be able to squeeze in though

AMD Ryzen 5 1400 - 819
MSI A320M Grenade - 335
Corsair 8GB DDR4-2133 - 260
Gigabyte GTX 1050 2GB DDR5 - 579
WD Blue or Seagate 1tB - 212
Corsair VS 450W - 184
Tecware F3 case - 124

RM2513 total

Maybe squeeze another RM300 for Ryzen 5 1600 and B350M motherboard.

thanks bro, it's fine. i don't use daily though, i prefer to spend more time on my new born child. PC mostly will use to edit her video and share among family=)

Asus Prime B350M-A - 445

Total: 4773

*All prices from c-zone except for ram and ssd from viewnet

Comments? Or suggest a better/more cost effective rig with same budget (must include freesync monitor).

Nothing to change. That's the best you can get. I suggest getting 8GB version of RX 580 though. Games already hitting 4GB.

I didn't realize that..

Ah damn. Didn't know that

SLI mining at a faster rate compared to a single card

But I found out that my 3GB card can't do SLI

Huh. I have never heard of that 6GB can do SLI too. At least my 1060 6GB doesn't have the SLI connector.

GTX1060 cannot do SLI at all, even with the 6GB, that's why I mentioned to run them in solo mode and go for a PSU upgrade only.

Like I said, I "remember".

Looks like they disabled the entire line.

Neat, thank you. If I really didn't want to increase budget to get the 8gb, what should I change to save cost?

Don't buy SSD first. Buy it later. Sandisk SSD Plus isnt that great as well.
