I'll be finishing up buying a CPU mobo and ram as the other parts have arrived. I'll use an 8gb USB sandisk stick for mining and I have a 32 to run Linux off a stick as well if needed for now and upgrade to an SSD and add more ram later if it gets used for other things, I'm thinking possibly for video but not gaming. On hand are the pair of R9 270s that were on sale with corsair psu a Z5 box.
Cash is limited but is that extra $60 for a six core CPU going to make this a much better pc and give it greater value overall ? Anyone running something similar ? Will the video cards require dummy plugs , anyone know?
Thoughts on differences between going with a 6core over the single core CPU ? Here's the pcpartpickers
