Title: Building the Ultimate Mining Rig on a Budget: My $500 Challenge

Hey guys, I'm looking to build a mining rig on a shoestring budget of $500. The goal is to squeeze out as much hash rate as possible without breaking the bank. I'm open to suggestions on GPUs, CPUs, and motherboard combos that can help me achieve this, so share your ideas!

I just wanted to throw out there, I managed to build a semi-decent rig for under $500 using a few 6GB RX 560's from Newegg. They're not the most powerful, but they're still good for some decent alt-coin mining. Has anyone else tried using older RX models?

"Just caught wind of this thread and gotta say it's a bold move going for a $500 build. I'd recommend checking out the RX 5600 XT, it's a beast for its price point. Has anyone else tried pairing it with an older mobo for a mining rig?"
