Title: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: caminilegroup on November 18, 2013, 03:34:00 PM Newbie to bitcoin talk. Been mining for a few months. Started with USB block erupters then upgraded to asicminer blades v2. Currently have two blades and planning on getting two more next month.
Currently on multipool using slush's mining proxy. Right now I am mining Zetacoin, but alternate to slush's for bitcoins. I have tried btcguild, bitminter, and slush's pool. I like slush's pool as I get a bigger payout, the wait kills me though.

Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: J3tt on November 18, 2013, 06:09:01 PM Cool! How much did you pay for the rig?
Also, I currently use BTCGuild. Any specific reasons you don't use/like it? Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: BitcoinBarrel on November 18, 2013, 06:34:58 PM Nice setup where did you order the base and PSU?

Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: Anixs on November 18, 2013, 07:33:37 PM Also curious about where you got the power supply. There is a seller on eBay in the USA who sells them just under $50 each. Ordered a pair for myself. Good 12v power supplies have many uses. ;D

Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: caminilegroup on November 18, 2013, 10:06:56 PM 10/GHs, power supply off ebay for $30. Got the back plane off ebay for $156. Total invested in this setup is $636.
When I first started I started with bitminter with the usb erupters. I moved around to see which pool I would like, and settled with bitminter for the erupters. When I got the blades in I did a 24 hr run on slush, bitminter, and btc guild. Slush was best overall for payout, but waiting for blocks confirmed was killing me. Bitminter seemed to payout more than btc guild. Right now I'm on multipool racking in Zetacoins getting about $6 a day. Once I get two more blades I'm going to leave one on Zetacoin and put the others on slush. Also, I know my setup isn't ideal for looks and cooling, but it works. I've contacted spotswood about his cases and I am like a kid in a candy store hoping to get one.

Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: caminilegroup on November 18, 2013, 10:46:14 PM In the three weeks so far, coinbase shows me at $30. I would imagine my total down time has been about 24hrs due to technical issues on my end.

Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: Mondy on November 19, 2013, 12:30:23 AM welcome!
how much does it make you? Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: caminilegroup on November 19, 2013, 12:33:30 AM With the btc jumping up today, I exchanged my zetacoins to btc for about $6. That was the past 24 hrs.
Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: Bitarchist on November 20, 2013, 07:24:54 AM Hey that looks great! I'm in the process of building one of these myself.
Im curious to know which PSU that is and where you got it from. Also, will it power 10 blades? Are there any other online resources you found helpful that you could point me to? I'm doing this for the first time. =) Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: Mondy on November 20, 2013, 07:43:48 AM With the btc jumping up today, I exchanged my zetacoins to btc for about $6. That was the past 24 hrs. Not bad! you should invest in btc now. Title: Re: Newbie to bitcointalk.org Post by: caminilegroup on November 20, 2013, 12:58:35 PM BTC drop almost $200 in the past few days. Kinda sad about that.
