If you cannot find these questions on your own. I highly suggest you not start a farm until you know what you are doing. Research is HUGE for doing this especially if you are going to scale up.

I do not know. I want to figure out what will be more profitable. On the one hand, there are ASICs, they are convenient and already configured.
But dear ones. video cards are more variable and cheaper. But there is a lot of trouble with them (((

This is a very big job. We must start with the formation and the budgetary part

depending on what equipment you use. Are you going to use video cards? what?

start with a training video, usually on websites along with programs, there are instructions and training videos

Let's say I have a room, electricity and racks. Collected several rigs. How do I start them? What software do you need?

Awesome Miner would be a good idea as a new miner though, very easy to handle and lots of mining programs integrated. Even Prohashing is listed as a pool there if I'm not mistaken.

But looking at the whole thread, I'll go with Aylnn. This whole mining stuff is very complex and you should at least know for yourself what you are going for.
