Underclocking via pencil mod is another option and does make them much more efficient.

I was upset letting mine go at £65 but was adamant that was the lowest I would go.

If they hadn't sold for £65 I'd have underclocked mine and kept them.

They are still excellent very reliable miners.

Whatever you choose buddy all the best of luck Smiley.

£55 delivered to the door hand on heart chap it's hashing as we speak.

That's about the right price now and £10 of that will be postage.
3267  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTS][UK] 3 Antminer S1 + 1250w Psu on: September 25, 2014, 12:28:21 PM
I'd sell them on ebay very soon if you don't get any interest here.

The price has dropped massively for S1's of late, I struggled to sell mine on ebay.co.uk for £65 each a few weeks ago.

I'm thinking about getting some more efficient hardware for the short term because I miss the mining buzz. Even if it breaks even for a few months that will do me Smiley.

Yes or a few gridseeds or gpu like 280x / 7970 then you can mine other alt coins.

No mining is profitable IMHO be it sha256, scrypt or other algo's.

I've recently sold my sha256 mining gear and gpu's because I was barely breaking even with the cost of electricity and I already owned the gear outright. In fact some days depending on pool luck I was actually mining at a loss.

I'd be very surprised if anyone can invest in equipment either new or used and ROI at current difficulty and btc value. Perhaps with free electricity it might be possible.

Just for interest what was your cost of electricity?

My electricity costs approx. £0.15 per kw/h ($0.25) + standing charge. This is domestic pricing and very similar price across all suppliers here in UK.

Don't feel badly done by.  It appears $0.15 to $0.25 USD per KWh is typical of not just the UK but most of the developed world.  At those prices bitcoin mining is no longer economic.

It is only the areas like Iceland, northern Sweden, Washington State in US or parts of China where bitcoin mining is profitable.  There is no way the rest of the world can compete with areas where electricity is around $0.05 per KWh.  Even $0.10 looks expensive when your competitors are paying half that.  

Interestingly the areas with cheap electricity are also some of the coldest inhabited areas on earth - good for cooling those racks of miners, especially if you are near the sea with nice stable temperatures.

You're exactly right its the same across most of the developed world. There is no way to compete with $0.05. Nice if you've got that and live somewhere cold Smiley.

You want easy money? Bet against man united. I don't see them winning many games this season. They will be lucky to finish top half of the table.

Might be worth a punt and I thought about doing so against QPR but look what happened there. I really hope they continue losing hehe. They might be fighting a relegation battle if this continues  Grin.

That will be the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life. If they get religated, my life will be complete  Grin
I don't think they are going to relegated in this century because they are still too good just worry is they are not going in top 4

I don't think Man Utd will finish top 6.

3279  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Any cpu only coins worth mining? on: September 21, 2014, 09:05:48 AM
Hi all,

Just wondering if there are any cpu coins worth mining at the moment? Not bothered if they're worth anything now but possible future gems.

I've got a couple of half decent quad core systems at home just wondered if its worth using them to mine anything?

I've recently sold my S1's and gpu's because of low returns and I'm missing the mining buzz Cry.

No cpu coin worth mining Smiley. Might as well sell it too..

Thanks for confirming, I thought as much. Cheesy no we use them too many for other things mining would just have been a small bonus while they were on.

Pictures? Escrow?
Escrow - no problem.  Pictures?  You've seen all these miners in the glossy brochures.  You are free to come to Vegas and do a walk through if you like. 
Vegas? I wish Cheesy. There are so many scams around lately it's hard to believe anything without pictures for some proof.
