Title: Noob: What miner to buy? Post by: Aukoue on July 22, 2014, 05:04:15 AM Hello everyone. First of all, let me just say that I am a noob, and don't know that much about mining or miners, so please have patience for me.
So.. I was planning on getting a Litecoin miner: http://zoomhash.com/products/batch-1-zeusminer-hurricane-x6-9-10mh-s-low-power-scrypt-asic-miner I thought it would be easier to mine Litecoin instead of Bitcoin. I thought that it's too late to get into Bitcoin mining unless you have $1.5k+ laying around. But then I stumbled upon this bad boy: http://zoomhash.com/collections/bitcoin-asics/products/coincraft-a3-miner It seams that it very efficient and can mine a lot of Bitcoin. Also, the price is not that bad, neither. I would like to ask you, professional and experienced miners for advice. I know that this is a Bitcoin, not a Litecoin forum, but please be openminded. Thank you in advance! Adam Title: Re: Noob: What miner to buy? Post by: xstr8guy on July 22, 2014, 05:20:26 AM The CoinCraft is overpriced, inefficient, loud and will never show a return on your investment. It will earn you about $18 per day after the next difficulty adjustment (in 3 days) and will continue to decline approximately every 12 days.
Other than that... it looks like a wise investment! ;) Title: Re: Noob: What miner to buy? Post by: Kimowa on July 22, 2014, 09:16:31 AM S3 is currently the best miner out in market..

Ya you are right, I guess we have to wait for batch 4 if there is one. Title: Re: Noob: What miner to buy? Post by: spazzdla on July 22, 2014, 05:09:14 PM R-box miners are good. The R3 seems pretty solid, I have 1 R-box. I also have 4 S1's and 2 S3's. rockminers.com check them out.
NEVER PRE-ORDER, unless bitmain. Title: Re: Noob: What miner to buy? Post by: ravin on July 27, 2014, 05:45:23 AM If you are serious about Bitcoin ASICs, have a look at my 'currently available' ASIC comparison
