Title: Building a powerminingpc Post by: mooks on June 11, 2011, 11:01:00 PM hi everybody!
since three days i'm using my nvidia 295 gtx for mining. overall it calculates between 60 and 120 MH/sec. (i don't know why it drops down sometimes...) but 100MH/sec is much to low for me... so i'm thinking to buy a pc only for mining! (in august) cpu: intel core i3-2100 95€ 65W mb: ASUS P8P67 WS Revolution Rev 3.0 207€ graca: 4*Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 155€ each 188W each ram: g.skill 8gb ddr3-1333 51€ power: Xilence Modular Series 1200W 150€ TOTAL: 1123€ the system should calculate 1600MH/sec. using http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php it sould "produce" 85$ per day. ~60€ (i estimate with 30$ per BTC) so in one month: $2,586.87 ~ 1800 € if i calculate the fees and so on i estimate about 1200€ per month. my adwantage is, that i don't have to pay for the needed powerusage :) what do you think about this systhem? is my calculation right? does somebody know why the btc/$ rate decrease so much yesterday? best regards mooks pp: sorry for my bad english Title: Re: Building a powerminingpc Post by: kokojie on June 11, 2011, 11:11:21 PM hardware is fine, but your estimate is wrong. Difficulty will increase by 60% in just 3 days. So your $85/day becomes something like $50 per day, and then there's the market crash, but if you value BTC at $30, that's up to you.

yes i know that the value decreased (also wrote that...) i'm just optimistic ;) ok 60% is really much... also if i estimate that the value is rising it won't compensate the rising difficulty... i'm still waiting so lets see how the course is changing :) Title: Re: Building a powerminingpc Post by: Mousepotato on June 13, 2011, 05:24:14 PM thx! The only thing you're optimistic about is finding 4 5870's :) Good luck with that.yes i know that the value decreased (also wrote that...) i'm just optimistic ;) ok 60% is really much... also if i estimate that the value is rising it won't compensate the rising difficulty... i'm still waiting so lets see how the course is changing :) Title: Re: Building a powerminingpc Post by: alexdrans on June 13, 2011, 06:12:34 PM thx!

They're not difficult to find at all in Europe. You can find some, but not at 155 euros. More like at 200+ euros. Still worth it in my opinion, its a very good card, but your stimations are way off. You are going to make a lot less money than you expect. |
