Title: I get free elctricity....Any interested investors?
Post by: Immanuel Go on September 15, 2012, 02:51:38 AM
I have access to free electricity for the foreseeable future.

Thinking about starting a GPU mining operation.

I can get 6990's for around 150 - 250 and I have parts to build 5 single GPU machines. I have the knowledge to put the whole thing together, just lacking some funds.

What do I need?

I need to purchase the GPUs and some dual GPU motherboards to go past the initial 5 machines. PM me if interested, let's talk details.

How much electricity do you have access to?

400amp 220V 3 Phase service?  Is this in a warehouse?  Can I install a couple of 10 ton AC units on the roof?

I have a few racks of GPU's I can bring over and 20 tons of cooling and a 5 ton Spot cooler if you are close to me.

I can supply all the wiring.  I will need to cut a hole in the roof for the AC copper tubes.

I can supply all the wiring and electrical boxes.

::)  Whose electricity bill are you running up? 

Well, whoever it is, they should've had the foresight to hire a private Power Outlet Police agency.

free electricity and gpus at half price, such a deal!

so if this takes you two weeks to order the parts and configure, you have maybe 60 days to mine before the block reward drop.   then after that bfl, basic, deepbit reclaimer and asicminer area all working on asic designs.  even if just one of them comes even close to their target gpu mining is done -- even with free electricity.

are you thinking investors will see this as being a good use of their funds?

This is why I support socialism and communism.  If we all had free electricity provided by the government we could all mine for free too and it would be great for the network.

Same here so that we could all get free chocolate because it makes us feel better. Forget about limited supply and demand driving price up, it would all just be free government could make as much as we want :)

Precisely, all the conservatives around here whine about how bad it is to get things for free but imitation Atlas here is forward thinking enough to be ahead of the game here.  Want to use a website so that other people mine for you? Why not?  We're all in this together.  Want to mine for free and share the bill with others?  Why not?  We should all get a piece of the pie without having to resort to putting our own financial stake into the game.

I'm pretty sure my father would break my ribs if I ran up a $700 electric bill at my parents' house.  he's the Power Outlet Judge Dredd.
