Title: WTS 5 miners with triple HD 7970 Post by: arobincaron on September 13, 2012, 10:11:48 PM I am selling 5 miners built from the following parts:
Case: Antec 100 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129183 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129183) PS: PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk II 950W High Performance 80PLUS Silver http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003U29C40/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003U29C40/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00) MB: BIOSTAR TZ77XE3 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138355 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138355) CPU: Celeron G530 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116409 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116409) Memory: G.Skill 4GB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231253 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231253) 3 of the miners are built with triple GPUs: Visiontek HD 7970 reference design http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129204 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129204) The other two miners have a Sapphire HD 7970 OC http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102982 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102982) and dual Visiontek HD 7970 reference design http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129204 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129204) ). Parts were purchased less than 6 weeks ago. All have generous manufacturer warranties. All are running BAMT 0.5 with CGMiner 2.7.4 off Patriot Xporter XT Boost 8GB Flash Drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220252 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220252) All the hardware is in new/excellent condition -- less than 6 weeks old. They mine at ~ 9.5GH/s. I can ship the miners as built or using all the original boxes (shipping will be a bit higher this way). I will entertain any reasonable offer for the miners as built. Parting is an option I'll consider later. I do not have a high post count/reputation here but I've been on ebay for > 10 years with an excellent reputation (http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=arobincaron&ftab=AllFeedback (http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=arobincaron&ftab=AllFeedback) Title: Re: WTS 5 miners with triple HD 7970 Post by: 420 on September 15, 2012, 07:02:05 AM What's your starting prices

This is all quality hardware is in a turnkey configuration. Please make offers accordingly. Thank you for your consideration. Title: Re: WTS 5 miners with triple HD 7970 Post by: superfastkyle on September 15, 2012, 09:56:30 PM hmm wasnt expecting you to actually deliver, I guess I'm just a skeptic. Why sell now? they are nice systems but there's probably no way you'd even break even at this point.
Title: Re: WTS 5 miners with triple HD 7970 Post by: crazyates on September 15, 2012, 10:17:15 PM I have > $1700 in each miner. Build 5 miners for $8500. Mine about $1500 worth of BTC in 6 weeks. Sell for anything over $7000 to make a profit. Sounds about right.

It takes about 3 gh/s just to make a btc per day. Things are getting rougher each week.

It takes about 3 gh/s just to make a btc per day. Things are getting rougher each week. If I'm correct the value of 1 BTC is a little more than double what it was a few months ago.... and maybe that has something to do with the higher difficulty?

You are correct about the price. diff... Well.. I am not sure. But what i meant about rougher each week is not only diff going up... Soon rewarrd is getting cut in half, asics may soon start to arrive, and price is not guaranteed to match raises in diff. In dec we may have 8-10 btc price instead of 12. We might have triple the diff and only price of 13. Things are going poorly for future gpu miners as i type this. I would like to buy the rigs but i will not insult the seller with my very low offer.... He can do better on ebay.

BFL has a very bad record on delivering on time, ASICs probably won't come out till next year. The other thing about a block halving is that people will drop out of mining. This will lead to a drop in difficulty and therefore you can profit again.

Thank you for your offer. It's a low bid and I am motivated to sell. Unfortunately I cannot accept because of the cost of the hardware. Also consider that you are getting tested, working and with known performance miners. When I started building this setup I had no idea how much work it was going to be to get working hardware and build the scripts (BAMT v0.5 does not work with HD 7970 not later builds of CGMiner), and stabilize the hardware configuration. For others who maybe considering this: escrow is fine with me -- I don't have anything to hide. PM is fine too. Once deals are settled I will update this thread to indicate sales. Happy day!

Why don't you post what you are expecting to get for each rig? Otherwise it turns into a bunch of posts trying to lowball you and draw you out.

Title: Re: WTS 5 miners with triple HD 7970 Post by: 420 on September 17, 2012, 03:09:47 AM The question is, how long have these parts been in use mining? When were they purchased. Forgive me if that was mentioned later, but I don't see in the OP
