<p>sorry if this question is for another place but I've been wondering are mining rigs mobile( can i move them from room to room in my place with ease without wondering if they will boot up properly or..? ) and can a rig be placed in a room with some moisture ( nothing big,its a room where my deep freezer,foodstuffs and tools are, something like a cellar...)
Also is it better to get amd based gpus or nvidia?</p>
