SLI ready mobo is expensive as it is only available on a mobo with at least 2 PCIe x16 slot (cards will run at x8 after SLI), so you need at least Z170/Z270 for it (if you are using LGA1151 socket CPU).

Yes it does have 2 x16 slots but one will run at full x16 mode and another one at x4 mode, so when you CF the GPU, the second card will have its performance reduced due to low bandwidth issue. This is not recommended for mid & high end GPU unless you are okay with the reduced performance.

Went to Lowyat Plaza this afternoon and was able to spot few RX580 there.

Zotac is 5 years (selected models), others are mainly 3 years.

Mini is of course cheaper than others as it is the lowest end series of Zotac model, their AMP and AMP Extreme are the high end series.

For 1k budget, only new G4560 and i3 can fit (after adding up the mobo and RAM), i5/i7/cheapest Ryzen all require > 1k (total around 1.3k for the cheapest parts available).

If you are okay with used item, look for used third gen i7 or fourth gen i5 and their respective mobo in Garage Sales, they can be bought under 1k.

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.

I get it now. Thanks biggrin.gif

GTX1060 running at PCIE 2.0 1x speed hmm.gif Wonder if mining bit coins will be much slower compared to 16x speed.

Btw bro, any recommendation on the PSU upgrade. 600W should be good to go?

Hi guys just like to know, how long till they stop selling the pentium g4560 locally?

Bcs I will only build a rig at the end of the year and my budget 2.5k is build around this pentium g4560.

Do your think it will still be easy to buy this chip in Nov or Dec or do your recommend I just buy it now and keep it till the end of the year??

Very likely when Core 8th generation comes out. The stock for G4560 will start diminishing once Pentium G5xxx releases.

Not recommended. Some motherboards has compatibility issues. I suggest you bring that rig to PC shop and install it to test. the 1600 RAM will run at 1333 if it works.

Dont know when is the launch. Intel usually releases new generation every year. The wait is entirely up to you. You eventually have to buy it at one point.

x1 is okay for bitcoin mining, nowadays BTC mobo all come with PCIe 2.0 x1 slot, ASrock just announced one BTC mobo with 13x PCIe 2.0 x1 slots at Computex Taipei biggrin.gif

About the PSU, yeah go for a decent quality one like Superflower Leadex Gold or EVGA G2 (or G3 for latest model), decent unit with 600W is enough to power up 2 GTX1060.
