Title: Should I mine solo or pool with this rig?
Post by: testerguy099 on June 07, 2011, 04:13:31 PM
Hi guys,

I'm new here but I've been reading about Bitcoin for a few days now and I love the idea. I'm currently building this simple rig for mining and I want your opinion about what I should do with it.

Its going to have 2 5850 which should bring me to about 600mh/s

My question is : Should I pool mine with this rig or should I just solo mine? Im going to have this rig working 24/7, how long do you think before it pays itself up (just the graphic card at around 400$ total)

Thanks for the advice! :D

Solo? You could find a block in hours, or it could be weeks! For your hashrate, enter a pool!

Bitcoin Generation Calculator (http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/old_calculator.php)
Bitcoin Mining Calculator (http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php)

Those should give you an idea of what to expect.  I go with a pool for daily payouts, personally.

Good luck!
