Title: How much is a broken asic worth? Post by: James222 on October 25, 2014, 08:48:12 PM The title says it all. I'm wondering how much it's worth. By broken, I mean that it's not cut in half, it just doesn't mine anymore.

You can use the old KNC controller with new Neptune cube . Title: Re: How much is a broken asic worth? Post by: J4bberwock on October 26, 2014, 02:59:04 PM The title says it all. I'm wondering how much it's worth. By broken, I mean that it's not cut in half, it just doesn't mine anymore. Some people like me are also buying defective miners to play or experiment with them, and sometimes repair them.Usually, 1/5 to 1/10 of the lowest $/GH rate for new hardware.

Just like everything else - it is worth whatever someone else is willing to pay for it. If it is something that may be fixable, it may have more value to someone who likes to tinker. Title: Re: How much is a broken asic worth? Post by: ltcnim on October 26, 2014, 04:17:34 PM I think it depends on the miner. If only the controller board is broken, you might still get some $$ for it. If the chips itself are dead most likely next to nothing.
It really depends on what miner you got, and what is defective. Title: Re: How much is a broken asic worth? Post by: BTCish on October 27, 2014, 05:38:28 AM it is worth exact the same as some is ready to pay for it .
