Title: Best unit to start with Post by: strungoutbtc on August 07, 2014, 07:07:26 PM Have around $2500 to spend, what's a good start?
Title: Re: Best unit to start with Post by: Bitsaurus on August 07, 2014, 07:26:40 PM Seeing as how you have already been graced by Vod's touch I take it you have not read too much on the forums. Buy a small miner for under $500 to learn about mining. Either buy a new Antminer S3 or Rockminer 35GH/s unit. You can also get a used Antminer S1 for $100. Learn how to mine and see if you can make profits before jumping the gun.

* If you want to mine, get S3 miners. * If you want more bitcoins, just buy them.

Hmm interesting.. :) Not sure if that is worth the effort but it is not a ton of money to try and see if you are interested investing a substantial amount into mining.

Mostly that is a lesson to realize that mining is interesting to some and a complete pain to others. To some the noise and heat is unbearable - to others it's not a big deal. Sometimes it's not even about the money if it makes your quality of life go down. Title: Re: Best unit to start with Post by: BTC_Fundamentals on August 10, 2014, 10:34:18 AM S3 is the answer. Best price/performance ratio right now.
Title: Re: Best unit to start with Post by: Bitsaurus on August 11, 2014, 04:50:52 AM S3 is the answer. Best price/performance ratio right now. While it may be one of the most efficient it has a higher barrier to entry than some other offerings like the cheap Rockbox gear. That gear is equally friendly and people won't cry a river if the unit dies or if they don't ROI. New miners should always start off slow unless they have a friend guiding them firsthand.

Title: Re: Best unit to start with Post by: Gumbork on August 11, 2014, 12:47:16 PM Yup S3 is the best right now...

Otherwise throwing money on btc is gamble. yeah, but buying a moto in this age is also the risk to lose life. pump and dump some altcoins, thats the king league. |
