Hey guys,

Thinking about building a CPU(that's right cpu, not gpu) mining rig for the first 7-8months after the launch of walton's mainnet. How does one build a rig like that? I know that there are motherboards that can carry multiple CPU's, but what would be the best way to approach this? Cheapest way for to get the most cpu's up and running?

Thanks!

cheapest way... it depends on how much money you want to spend

Do anyone of you know of a motherboard than can hold more than 2 CPU's?

Didn't see any which can hold more than 2 CPU's, and those which can hold 2 CPU are quite expensive

Just CPU rigs by themselves aren’t worth it unless you’re putting it in a current system.

You should look at dual/ tri miners that mine on GPU, CPU, and Storage all at once.
