Firstly, in order to build a mining rig there are a number of things to think about and parts to purchase. I have split some of these out below from my latest builds. A lot of these can be swapped out for an alternative option.
We make our recommendation focusing on efficiency and ease of use, ideal for beginners but do your own research as always.

Mining Rig Part | Quick Review | |
  | Integrated graphic's and does the job for mining on an AM4 Motherboard. | |
Reliable and cheap to run HiveOS. Easily replaceable. | ||
  Motherboard: MSI Arsenal Gaming AMD Ryzen 2ND and 3rd Gen AM4 | Has all the mining features required, 4g decoding etc. Also has some cool RGB at a reasonable price. | |
Splitter Card: PCIe 1 to 4 Riser Card, Pcie Splitter 1 to 4 PCI Riser Card | This rig has more power capacity to get to 80% of load. Having one of these allows me to add extra gpu's. | |
  | Good price, please pick up an extra pack of fans. I forgot and had to get another pack. | |
Parallel Mining supply some great bundles on server power supplies. You get the cables you need and can adapt your order as required. You will need a Pico switch as well to power the motherboard and cpu. | ||
  | Great RGB with a controller at a reasonable price. The airflow is also reasonable | |
  Risers: Ubit 6-PCS PCI-E Riser | Updating my rigs to these ones going fowards, 8 capacitors and I have some white builds coming. |
