All White 3900X Raptoreum Rig Build

Raptoreum mining is highly profitable at the moment. CPU mining is back, I am going to document my journey and builds including parts, overclocks and settings.

I am currently cross mining 3 rigs with GPU/CPU mining but this is my first dedicated CPU only mining rig.

You may ask why? well for the challenge and Raptoreum in my view is still untainted and a pure mining form, no ASICs simple journey and at this time very profitable

Mining Rig Part	Quick Review	Amazon Link
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-core, 24-thread unlocked desktop processor with Wraith Prism LED Cooler	Ryzen 9 3900's which have a hashrate of 3601 h/s each	View Here
Motherboard:MSI Arsenal Gaming AMD Ryzen 2ND and 3rd Gen AM4 M.2 USB 3 DDR4 DVI HDMI Crossfire ATX Motherboard (B450 TOMAHAWK MAX II)	The White Mortal Motherboard is out of stock so I went for this one due to the RGB and affordabilty.	View Here
RAM:Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz C16 LED Desktop Memory - White	This is when the rig starts to get very white, Love the RGB and will always be useful in the futire if I do another gaming build.	View Here
PSU: Corsair CX650F RGB, 650 Watt, 80 PLUS Bronze, Fully Modular RGB White Power Supply	This is a bronze Power Supply, I am not drawing as much power as GPU mining at around 125 watts this will be good enough. White and great RGB,	View Here
Boot Drive: Sabrent Rocket Q 1TB NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 Internal SSD High Performance Solid State Drive	Go for the lower gig version of this, dont need 1tb the smallest size should surfice. I had one already from Chia Plotting.	View Here
Adapter: SSK Aluminum M.2 NVME SSD Enclosure Adapter	Great tool to have around, I used it for Chia Mining plotting on my Intel NUC. Its useful to burn HiveOS onto a SSD. Check compatibility.	View Here
Power Switch: weideer 12mm Momentary Push Button Switch Metal Chassis Switch Waterproof	Again, with the white theme I had to have a white Power Switch.	View Here
Motherboard Mount: Bewinner Open Frame Transparent Acrylic Frame Computer Case DIY Base Stand For ATX Mothboard Convenient for Testing, Overclocking or Gaming Support Longer Graphic Card	Last but not least, the pedestal to show off my new rig build. I have been thinking about putting it on a laptop stand aswell. Look for the size that corresponds to your motherboard.. Great for a test bench too.	View Here
Risers: Ubit 6-PCS PCI-E Riser	If you are doing some GPU mining aswell, these white and red risers will fit in with the look.	View Here

Rig Assembly

1. Research and buy parts
2. Un-package everything
3. Install an OS on SSD/USB Flash Drive – ready for installing on step 4 (See HiveOS install or choose an OS of your choice – I recommend HiveOS, it makes everything easier as its build for mining).
4. Install processor, RAM and Boot Drive on motherboard
5. Plug in all riser cables (only applicable if you are dual mining) or a cheap GPU only while you complete installation and setup – this can be removed afterwards.
6. Place motherboard on mount.
7. Plug in SSD/SATA hard drive
8. Connect all GPUs to riser cables and fasten them to custom case. You might need to experiment for optimal spacing to keep the cards cool.
9. Plug in all power supply connections.
10. Connect mouse, monitor and keyboard and an internet connection
11. Check all connections once more
12. Fire it up and install the operating system and mining software (see additional instructions below).
13. Make sure fans are fully functional. Start the mining software, tweak settings for maximum hash rates and let it run!

HiveOS Installation

HiveOS have a great guide on getting started, here is our referrNext, setup on windows and HiveOS are completely different processes. HiveOS have a great guide on getting started, here is our referral link. In my view its far simpler than windows once you get into it:-

Motherboard Software Configuration

This is the main difference to GPU mining, the Bios is where you need to research and do your CPU overclock settings. Every motherboard is different but in general you want to do these updates.

1. Update the motherboard to the latest BIOS using a USB thumb drive.
2. Configure Motherboard BIOS with the following settings changes:
3. If you are GPU / CPU mining.
   • PCIE Subset settings – set these to Gen 1
   • Above 4G Decoding (cryptocurrency mining) should be set to Enabled
   • Turn off HD Audio
   • Set RAM at correct frequency
   • Set Fan at Full Speed
   • Set CPU Frequency at safe overclock – different for each CPU
   • Set voltage to 1 volt (if it crashes increase)
   • AMD Overclocking – Disable
   • Precision Boost Overdrive – Disable
   • Save and reboot

Set up a Wallet

I would recommend setting up a Zelcore wallet or the official Raptoreum Wallet on a local computer.

Selecting a pool

Now its time for you to do your own research – here is a list of pools. I would look for one that is local to you with low latency for best results, but at the moment I am using flockpool.com. I started with R-plant but have moved away from it recently and the results seem better.

Setting up a flight sheet – HiveOS

1. First step add your wallet
2. Select coin RTM
3. Select the wallet you just added
4. Select your pool (if your pool is not listed you will need to set it manually)
5. Click configure pool and select the closest server
6. If you selected a different pool enter in pool url from the detail on the pools website.
7. Ensure its set to the gr – ghostrider algorithm and the fork is gr
8. Set the config overide to “tune-full”: true (this will run a 4 hour test on the cpu – recommended for first time use. After this time it will start mining).
9. Click Apply and then Click the to the moon button.

XMRig is now also available, I have currently switched my rigs to this software. Same process just enable huge pages. It also does not require the tune full command saving time.
