Title: 3 machines, 1 GH/s
Post by: yochdog on September 14, 2011, 04:37:57 PM
What is a reasonable price to ask for 3 PC's that hash at a combined 1 GH/s?

All have fully licensed copies of Windows XP, are properly set up to mine using GUIminer, and are "turn on and forget" ready. 

the GPU's are 6950(shader mod), 6950, and 5770.



I really have no clue what the going rate is for mining rigs at the moment.  If it is worth my time, I will post pictures and entertain some bids.

Not worth to use 3 pcs for just 1 GH/s, put a better psu on one of those and transfer the other vgas...
Way better.

When it comes to price you would have to give the entire pc info, cpu, mem, hds, etc.
 ;D

I'd be interested in the three cards and maybe one machine depending what they are.

The reason I dont use just one MOBO and the 3 cards together is they are slightly older DELL workstations with just one PCI slot each.

They were sitting around collecting dust, so I dropped a GPU in each, fired up the ole GUIminer, and put them to work.

Since I only had to pay for the GPU, seemed like a really cost effective way to get some extra MH's.

Now that I am looking to go more dense, I want to sell these and replace them with a more efficient set-up.

You probably wont get much at all for the PCs but the cards is where the money is at

I'd still buy the cards depending on the asking price but the used dells aren't worth shipping and are better off as scrap metal or sold on your local craigslist.
