Title: Have £1200. Recommend me a rig.
Post by: jkay on February 04, 2014, 01:08:39 AM
As title says really.  Got spare £1200 and I want to upgrade from usb mining as it's a bit useless now.

Any suggestion guys?

If the delivery date is somewhere in May you should calculate an approximate difficulty increase till that date then add a 2 to 4 months delay(as no one as far as I know delivered on time!)

I recommend you online/cloud mining!
You may pay more for Ghs but you have your hashing speed delivered instantly!

And the good part is that you can sell your Ghs after you don't want to mine anymore!

just my 2 cents!

You won't find a miner that will make you a profit. So, you should consider Group mining. Check out the group mining section here to signup to a group.

Or GPU mining, so many people not realizing its better for low budget. At least I think this way and already made some profits : )

I guess you mean for AltCoins for Bitcoins is no sense.

I do have 4x 280x Toxics hashing dogecoin at 3Mh/s +

Purchasing another 4 this week :)

It is definitely not profitable to mine bitcoin with GPU.
It is still profitable to mine scrypt coin with GPU.  ;D

Purchase gpu miners, mine scrypt coins. Then exchange to BTC.
Ant miner is another choice.
You can check this site for more ideas.

In some way is funny, www.e-pickaxe.com (http://www.e-pickaxe.com) delivered before the promise date and is producing at a nice performance, and you recommend Cointerra c'mon they delivered few units, delivery date was "December" the units don't meet the original specs, they generate less than expected GH and uses more electricity that estimated. If you don't like cloud mining is ok is a free world, but is much better to invest in an Antminer S1 you can get it now no delays and no tricks. Costs u$s 1200,.- and generate 180 Gh.

I'm not against cloud mining. I myself use cex.io. I thought cex.io is expensive, but e-pickaxe.com is way more expensive, and doesn't look legit to me.

I'm making 0.015BTC a day with a 280X at 625kH on Middlecoin.  With ~120GH of ASICs I'm making 0.025BTC on Eligius.

I wish I'd kept my 7950s and not bothered with ASICs.

gpu rig is what you want. By the way, does middlecoin shows correct mining speeds? It constantly shows about 10-30% less. Anybody else have similar problem?
