Mining rig personal recommendations, based on what I use:
-Mining Frame (Case) –
FLOW 6.1 GPU MINING RIG CASE
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01EGREBKM/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B01EGREBKM&linkCode=as2&tag=obham001-20&linkId=3872646a4ae70aa13ee4d3fbe2a43b3c
-Motherboard (one that accepts multiple GPUs)
https://www.amazon.com/ASRock-Motherboard-H81-PRO-BTC/dp/B00HEUIS2G?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00HEUIS2G&linkCode=w00&linkId=654ec230e823713c3f6a99e426f8c950&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
-Appropriate low-end CPU to match motherboard (at least 2 Cores)
https://www.amazon.com/Intel-Celeron-Processor-2-7GHz-BX80646G1820/dp/B00HCM8QQE?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00HCM8QQE&linkCode=w00&linkId=2ce5578c763460b269972049c62d8d99&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
-Suitable RAM sticks for your system (DDR4/DDR3?-Check which your motherboard takes!)
https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-Ballistix-PC3-12800-240-Pin-BLS8G3D1609DS1S00/dp/B006YG9E7O?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B006YG9E7O&linkCode=w00&linkId=3f0d946a3b44e5fa570160f14613cccc&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
-Strong enough Power Supply(or two), with enough cabling to fit all GPUs
EVGA 1200W PLATINUM PSU
https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-PLATINUM-Crossfire-220-P2-1200-X1/dp/B00KYK1CKI?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00KYK1CKI&linkCode=w00&linkId=875527b7a9d3a016af0f471a8648241b&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
-Graphics Processing Units, or GPUs (AMD is much better suited for mining Ethereum)(4 GB of memory, or MORE, are highly recommended, as DAG files grow with time)
http://gpushack.com/ – Great Selection of Refurbished Cards
The Card I Use For Both Gaming AND Mining – Excellent all-around and been quite future proof, for gaming/VR. Good if you want to do more than mine.
https://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-Version-PCI-Express-Graphics-11241-00-20G/dp/B00ZGL8CFI/ref=sr_1_7?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1466721660&sr=1-7&keywords=r9+390x
-Powered USB Risers 1x – 16x (One Per GPU)
https://www.amazon.com/6-Pack-Powered-Riser-Adapter-Extension/dp/B01GU94QSQ?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B01GU94QSQ&linkCode=w00&linkId=df1fac6ded0d03dc826541d564cebd7f&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
-Solid-State Hard Drive
https://www.amazon.com/Kingspec-SATAIII-SMI2246XT-controller-ACSC2M064S25/dp/B00Z6THYYU?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00Z6THYYU&linkCode=w00&linkId=3f67f7c7d92062e8b8e1eabf4dd042fb&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
-Your choice of OS (ETHos, Windows (7 is commonly to be best), UBUNTU, or Linux)
http://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/4298/ethos-linux-ethereum-mining-platform
-Your choice of mining software (I prefer Claymore’s Dual Miner)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.0
Optional:
A Fan (highly recommended, to reduce wear on your components)
Wattage Draw Meter (Test how much power your system draws)
https://www.amazon.com/Lasko-3300-Wind-Machine/dp/B00002N5ZB?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00002N5ZB&linkCode=w00&linkId=6962424c60297aff83836d19ea61c65a&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
A Paperclip – This will come in handy when testing your PSU, in case of errors.
Thermal Glue- Place on the CPU’s Heatsink, for better heat dissipation and reduced wattage drain.

WiFi Receiver – No long ethernet cables necessary!
https://www.amazon.com/RELPER-300Mbps-Wireless-Network-Internet/dp/B00UJEOTXQ?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00UJEOTXQ&linkCode=w00&linkId=e3222478540e294a927a461263b806cd&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
DUAL PSU Starter Cabling/adapter – (If you plan on having more than one PSU, this is a must)
https://www.amazon.com/Vantacor-Dual-Adapter-Cable-2-way/dp/B00DL3L2J6?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B00DL3L2J6&linkCode=w00&linkId=1524cff3cd32948f9dd5f4853499facc&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=obham001-20
Obviously, you’ll want to have a monitor, mouse, and keyboard handy, as well 🙂 You won’t need anything fancy- just make sure your monitor has the proper cabling to hook into your selected GPU(s) (HDMI, Mini Display Port, DVI, etc)
HDMI Cables: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014I8SSD0?ref_=assoc_tag_ph_1457988179189&_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=pf4&tag=obham001-20&linkId=bbe5fbb0c8f02cd94b8234a7d45c4884
