We need a basic processor that allows us to run Windows 10, Ubuntu or Ethos, and to manage the rest of our rig devices. Here it is clear that the mining process is by GPU, which means that the workload will fall exclusively on the graphics cards. Therefore, when choosing a processor we will suffice with a double core.
In this case I recommend the Pentium G3260 processor, a dual core processor based on the Intel LGA 1150 socket, is efficient, extremely economical and has a base frequency of 3.3GHZ.

If you are looking for something a little more recent, the best option you can find, within this price range is the Pentium G4600, 2 cores and 4 logical processes, and with a frequency of 3.6GHZ. It is based on the Intel LGA 1151 socket and is compatible with DDR4 memories.
