Title: New to bitcoin mining
Post by: dannyrayat on April 28, 2014, 08:49:02 AM
Hey !

I am planning to purchase bit-coin mining hardware which has the hash rate of 180gh/s.But I need some further details of the machine.

That
how this machine works?
Will there any downgrade in the speed of this machine in future?
for how many hours I can run this machine continuously?
What will be the power cost?
How to setup the machine?
how many days it will take me to mine 1BTC?

link from where I am planning to buy -

1. Low hashrate (180GH/s)
2. No, but the bitcoin mined will be less and less due to difficulty going up
3. With good ventilation, you could keep running it until it breaks down.
4. ~360W, depends on your electricity price
5.
6. Never

Please check a profit calculator before buying anything. :)

Its not profitable anymore sry to say but only big players do some profit atm. If you buy a rig, its already unprofitable when it arrives.

I recommend mining some altcoins with gpus the old way ;) And if it becomes unprofitable too, sell it as gaming hardware
