You are a bit late to the party. If you don't have any rig at the moment, you should expect a learning curve. It won't run from the start. You will have problems with drivers, hardware, mining software and so on.
Maybe don't start that big. Also the rising difficulty and upcoming POS should be your concern. For 1 gh/s you would need 36 gpus, I calculated with used r9 290´s because they offer the best mh/s for the money atm. But not the best watt/mhs.
The guide is mentioning risers. If your single rig has more than 2 or 3 gpus, you need powered usb risers and not ribbon risers. Search for them on your own. For efficiency you need a 6 gpu mainboard. Search for it on your own. EthOs, mentioned in the guide, is just ubuntu.
You decide if you want to pay for it or do it by yourself. Its very user friendly though and is plug and play. As far as i know it doesn't support dual mining, you would need your own linux/windows for that.
Use a proper gold or better PSU by a renown brand. Otherwise you risk your hardware or even start a fire. This is especially problematic if you use dual PSU´s for one rig, but that is kind of a topic of its own.
(You could also use Server PSU´s, those are cheaper but either need soldering or an adapter. If I would plan to build a rig of that size I would use those.) 7. From my experience those rigs either need one monitor each 6 gpus or a dummy display adapter. Some people seem to be fine without any of those but my rigs don't boot without either a monitor or a dummy connected to one of the graphic cards. You can get dvi to vga adapters and insert 3 resistors. Search for it for further information. There is probably more, but you have to search for information on your own in this forum and others.
And no, im not including a total cost of that. Work for yourself. You are a bit late to the party. If you don't have any rig at the moment, you should expect a learning curve. It won't run from the start. You will have problems with drivers, hardware, mining software and so on.

'Thinking about going with this route, meaning the fact this guy has been around since Gavin Wood had a twinkle in his eye.' That would be Gav's mother with the twinkle in her eye.
Crypto is a gamble, nothing more, nothing less. ETH looks good now, but what if there's another DAO-type crisis, confidence is lost in the platform, and ETH drops to $5? What if the value goes up, Gav's grandmother is mining ETH instead of watching the Home Shopping Network, and difficulty triples in a month?
What if VB takes a mega 'shroom trip one weekend and decides PoS is going to be moved up to the Metro network upgrade in October/November? Unless you build rigs out of totally second-hand parts, which will take more time to procure and get running reliably, you are not going to build 1 GH for 'a couple grand'. A reasonable rig, using say the new rx480, which is great bang for the buck, lower power consumption, etc., you should be thinking $1600-$1800 per rig, minimum, and 6 rigs - call it $10k. That's going to pull at least 50amps of power at the wall, 6 KWh 24x7, comparable heat output, etc. The $10k above, doesn't include the fans, blowers, etc. You'll need to keep the HW from burning up.

I meant Gavin having a twinkle in his eye about Ethereum, implying he treats it like his child.
Sorry, had to say it. I also like your analogies.
You're a funny guy. And I know that it won't take me a couple grand to get a 1 GH rig. If it only took that much, I'm pretty sure the global hash rate for Ether mining would be much, much higher. I meant 'a couple grand' on your idea of building a smaller rig.
And on that subject: Really considering buying this. Good idea or not? I can manage it, cool it, etc. But I'm always open for input. Thanks guys for your swift response, this forum is more involved then I presumed. Well, I'm mining and still expanding my operation, so you should be able to infer from that. But, I've also been doing this for a long time (in the crypto world anyway), a chunk of my GPUs were kept from the litecoin mining days.
Would I advise someone to invest in GPU mining? Probably not. Will I keep re-investing a portion of profits back into gear? Probably yes. When Ethereum ASICs start to be developed, wouldn't (almost all) of your GPU mining equipment become obsolete over a short span of time? And also, call me ignorant, but what's necessarily holding back the release of an Ethereum ASIC?
Just the ability to run the, or am I way off? I concur with dlehenky on that. 390s aren't worth it.
Refurb 290s or 480s are the cards to get right now I'd say. Newegg periodically drops their 290s by another $20 too, worth watching for.
480s are hard to find period right now - apparently there are huge backlogs of orders already. Thanks for the recommendations you guys, I'll look into it. Also, and, do you have public Skypes? I want to make a conversation with you guys- I'm trying to do something much bigger, and you two seem to be very knowledgable in everything Ethereum. Or would you rather talk together on a messaging platform like Slack? How To Start A DigiByte DGB Mining Business.
Let me know ASAP, I'm eager to let you all know what's up. Ethash is intended to be ASIC resistant. That, coupled with the switch to PoS, which will kill mining altogether, doesn't make investment in ASIC development look very favorable economically. That doesn't mean it won't happen, but it's not that likely. I'm an old fart, would serve you better with your 'bigger' initiative. My life is already plenty full. Knows just about everything there is to know about mining crypto; I'm just a hacker.
Still, I'd like you to know about what I'm trying to do. PM me your email if you can. You too, I made a Slack. If you want to avoid a lot of the pain of experimentation with drivers, which OS, blah, etc - I really think that EthOS is a great solution for someone new to mining and it's actually built for large scale rollouts. I'm not connected with them at all, I'm just a satisfied customer. You can really just put the hardware together, drop in an EthOS SSD, change a few settings and start mining straight away.
Once you are mining at default everything, then you can tweak a bit more out of everything. I was pretty new to mining and I got it early on and it's been very reliable ever since, for about 4-5 months now. The idea of building one rig with 5-6 GPUs and getting it stable, then cloning it is a very good one. Be aware that if you do use refurb 290s you will be getting the blower style coolers and they are VERY noisy and run very hot. I have watercooled a few of my 290s just because my rigs are in my house and the noise was unbearable. Yes very expensive but it prevented my girlfriend from getting mad about it. Another possibility is using 380s if you can find lots of them cheaply because they can run at lower core for same hashrate and power saving.
My 380s hash at about 21 with core at 800. My 290s hash at 28-29 wityh core at 1100 but they use LOTS of power. 480s are scarce. If I were you right now, I would take the 2k and just buy Eth on an exchange site of your choice. With the increase difficultly of mining Ethereum the value we hope increases to offset the extra cost of mining.
Basically it will take you a least 2 months to ROI your rig BUT if you were to take that to the market and if Eth doubles in valve you would have made your money back with no added expense, no hassles, no extra heat in your place. Then you could build the rig for nothing. However, if your going to go for gold dump the 10K plus on mining gear, get a industrial place with lots of ventilation, power, internet and go for broke. You are a bit late to the party.
