If you are asking which hardware is more profitable compare to butterflylabs, the answer would be every single asic on the market because butterflylabs delay at least 1 year before they ship.

friedcat seem to be the cheapest currently. But requires some DIY from what i can see.

Alternative if you want a hitnrun go with the S3.

However.. ROI is unlikely at the current btc price, so you'll have to hope for a rise in value.

ASICminers stuff doesn't use "normal" mining software,I'm not too keen on them for that reason,it's a bit involved in getting it to mine & only at certain pools  ::)

S3's seem the only decent choice ATM......easy to setup,decent power consumption,ok price.........

With ya on the ROI thing mazedk,just hold your mined BTC  ;)

Personally hoping BTC hits $100 for 6 months..........weed out the farms........maybe  :D

Antminer S3 is the best right now, don't ever buy anything from butterflylabs..

I cannot believe you're a full member in the Bitcointalk forum with 238 activity, and you dare mention Butterflylabs like they're a legit company.

How much did you buy this forum account for?

A wooden dining room table would hash better than a Monarch.  Seriously the account had to have been bought unless this is the first visit to the mining section  :o

No I literally have not looked at mining at all these past years.

The only time I did was when GPUs were the way to go.

And I understand the issues with Butterflylabs as I've read the many horror stories, basically you get the product a year after purchase.

Right now no hardware can make an ROI. Like other posters said the best is to buy btc and hope for it to rise.
