Give a man a fish and he can eat for a day ...


So, that's near the gross revenue.

What you'ld also want to factor in is the cost of the electricity.   The card itself, not including the rest of the rig,, consumes, oh 160W.  Using national residential average (U.S.) power cost of $0.15 per kWh, you'll see about 0.17 BTC earned (worth $1.15 USD at the current exchange rate) and pay 0.9 BTC ($0.58) of that in electricity.

Of course, your electric consumption includes power supply, mobo, display, etc.,

You'll want to carefully consider your cost of electricity as this configuration could easily be mining at a loss (or at best a miniscule profit).

I make a little over 3 BTC per day @ 0 watts.

some days I get .001 btc and others 10 btc

through referral links
and small no brainer currency trades (find a low and high market, buy from the low one transfer and sell high).  I know someone has made a bot for this.  But am surprised by the differences still out there, I should try to make my own.

I switched my 6990`s off due to power consumption and switched to FPGA mining. HW from different vendors
currently 3,8 GHps at approx 240 W
That equals around 2 BTC per day

BTW: what is your opinion on deepbit ? I choose that pool, just because it was the biggest but if someone has better experiences, just let me know

Everything is better than "deepbit"

why is that ? can u elaborate a little bit further ? Fees to high ? Algorithms not state-of-the-art ? I understand, that they use the same PPS payment method like others do. What do u use instead, if I may ask that question?

Fees too high. That is all for the regular users.

does it worth buy a mining rig FPGA? how much time we will need to get back the investment? 2 years non stop?

how you get 75 a day? mining?
i can't do mining, it takes too much CPU...

before the BFL ASIC announcement, I would have said yes, it pays off, now I would be a lot more careful.
Only time can tell how BFL will really perform with the new gear. If it turns out to be real, then all FPGA will be obsolete (for mining, they still hold a certain value of course). I personally changed my strategy and pre-ordered the BFL ASIC`s with half of the planned invest for the next months. The other half still goes into FPGA, but this is high risk. Maybe BFL is high risk as well. This announcement is game-changing and there is probably not a "one-and-only-fits-all strategy"
But the primary focus is probably not to make dollars out of the project but support the whole idea in some way. In the secondary focus, of course we all want to prosper ....

I'm getting in average usd800 per day, but not with mining. ordered two BSL SC singles, let see hw it will go. Considering 29K black any ideas if it will worth it. I have my own electricity from wind and solar, so electricity cost do not concern me.

wow, they pay that well in india now?

hi, I'm IT guy from India, specialising on networking. great place thanks

wow, and electricity from wind and solar as well!

i wonder if they'll ever invent a way to get electricity from unicorn farts?  that'd be cool too!

Mining is one of those things it seems like that if you aren't getting free electricity then its really not going to be worth the value of mining especially with the ever approaching hash rate reduction.

Whats the best mining pool?

With 100% luck,
300MH/s = 0.2 BTC per day = 5.3 BTC per month (35 USD per month)

Best mining pool is pool with lowest fee. Avoid overcrowded pools with +5% fee, you will earn much less. Some pools are paying for orphaned blocks and sharing Transaction Fees among miners, you should look here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Comparison_of_mining_pools

For example - Polmine - 1% Fee PPS, they are paying for orphaned blocks and for Transaction Fees in each block. That's much better than Deepbit or other big ones.

Seems kind of strange that Deepbit can still charge 10% PPS fee.  Do they give some kind of benefits over the other pools?

they pay very well indeed,  check Hyderabad Cybercity for who are they, it is Microsoft, Google, Nvidia, Qualcom, Oracle to name just few.

With stability in electricity supply been a major problem, solar and wind bundles are not unseen here. But much more common solar water heaters. With solar and wind system which is connected to your electricity line, you can cut your monthly bill quite a  bit and no need in batteries.

No, people are just too lazy/dumb to look for something else.

Nah

But people still go with them so why not charge high fee? Why not milk the noobs?
