    Best CPU/GPU combo for folding @ home?

    Since this COVID thing hit, I've purchased several used 1060's and 1070's off of eBay for pretty reasonable prices. There are also good deals on open air mining racks and PCIe risers if you want to go that route. Otherwise, look for any cheap case with good ventilation, a good power supply, and...

    I've had good luck with these, Coolermaster 120mm ultra quiet fans. Now they are sleeve bearing fans, but they will be fine if you mount them in the vertical plane.
