Ugh I'm not going to bother with you, you just know everything better than anyone else Virosa. People seem to think about you the same way on not just this forum. LOL..
Keep babbling it's fun to read your banter..
Glad seller sold it, no matter what sort of BS you were trying to spin. Ta Ta.
I didn't know i was so infamous, you warm my heart. If you ever feel like actually having an adult conversation about facts, instead of taking/making things personal, i would love to. Who knows, maybe you would even learn something. Like how to get more hashrate than 42MH/s for half the price, that consume less than 200W, for less $, for example. There's nothing wrong about shop talk, is there? |

The point is that its an unwarrantied, old gen, high power card. Most likely had a hard life with BTC mining and then with LTC mining so if anything happens like a capacitor blows up or VRM fails, its a huge loss.
But right now I rather buy 2 R7 370 for around $240USD and get 34mh/s rather then pay $415USD for this and I at least get warranty. And it uses 1 PCIe 6 pin each GPU instead of 2x8pin. However I would lose a motherboard PCIe slot.
It would sell if only the price was more reasonable.
Oh yeah, its totally not really good for mining. Its 3-4x the cost per hash and power consumption. Its basically two 280x. As such its not really dated gen. The r9 380 is kind of just as much. Though who know what this card has been through. its 2x 7970's  And what is a 7970? Its a 280x. Or rather the 280x is a rebrand of 7970. They're the Tahiti GPU. Actually soo many people are wrong about these cards.. That's because they talk with no 1st hand knowledge.....
(Yes it's 2x HD7970's in one)
My HD7990 at stock speeds (1000/1500) with a 100mv undervolt, and extra fan pushing air over it, was hashing (as of yesterday once I shipped it)at 42-46MH (averaged 44)
and only used 380watts and ran at 65/61C (one GPU always runs hotter than the other).. Quite profitable..
Glad this one sold too. As long as you keep them cool, they last for ever.
Which is like buying two 7950 or two 280x, for the price of 4. Well, more like 5, after the shipping cost and... time to receive it in NA, that OP quoted me, it's actually 6~  But you might of missed the important part, where you can get the same hashrate, for half the power consumption, for cheaper. That was my salient point. |

any reason why not the s7?
it would be very hard for him to do to the s5/s7 that he did for s3 because the s5/s7 use a read only file system. so once you reboot it, it will get set back to stock  Is this why I can't change the root ssh password? Chinese need their backdoors. It wont be a backdoor unless you leave your router wide open as well. Still, passwd doesnt work? |

Is there still not any 3rd party cooling kits for the S7? I'm considering selling my last S7 thats in Canada, but only because of the noise.

First of all, his asking way above it's price ($637 in BTC on Bitmain website itself). Assuming that's 2nd hand so even worst, better buy directly from their website instead. You could earn around $190 per month, assuming the difficulty doesn't changes (which it does all the time so it could be a little different result).
Actually, with his 0.25$/kWh. He is not going to earn anything. He will have to pay more in electricity than he will earn BTC with mining. 0.1$ is quite too high. 0.25$/kWh is ridiculous. |

Still looking for listed cards. Found the risers.
adaseb and VirosaGITS or others,
Since price of ETH is still rising, do you believe 200$CAD for a 280x is a fair price ?
It is, i would probably take it. But its a pretty power hungry card, so i would personally mix it with low power one. |

Doing this again if anyone's interested
Do you have Canadian Amazon Prime? What Escrow? Forum Escrow? Only doing US unfortunately. Yes anyone trustworthy on the forum works Amazon.com with international shipping? Sure, as long as you're willing to cover the cost I suppose that depend what your discount is compared to purse.io. You do 30%, or? |

Whats a good miner for 800$ and a 6/kWh-7/kWh?
I'm referring to Phil's first post. The S7. The Avalon 6 might work as well, and you might be able to get it a bit cheaper(than the S7) and its easier to fit on an ATX PSU. But i don't think you will ROI either way. Your electricity costs are too high, i think. |

Hey now. We have not implemented a proxy at it DC. If and when we do, I will absolutely pay the bounty. My honesty in unquestioned around these here forums.
I don't think VirosaGITS cared much about the bounty anyways. I reply to many thread that offer "Will give X bounty for Y solution". Then i give a solution and then a Caveat appear "Thanks for the solution but i'm not paying because i did not make use of that solution/I came up with something else". Either that or they never reply in the thread, and i don't chase them down. I'd rather not argue over terms of a Bounty. It'd be nice to actually receive but i stay active on the forum for learning/keeping up nowadays. |

Fleabay prises are never to be quoted as some marked standard, they are all ways ridiculous.
We can compare amazon or current retail price for theses dual GPU cards if you want. Then its much worse, you're looking at 1000-3000$ per. |

Hey there i'm new to the forums and to bitcoin mining. I know how to setup a wallet exc for bitcoins because I have owned fractions of them in the past. I am looking for a miner that is in the cheaper range but could make me 2.50$ a day.Do you know any miners that could make me that range of money per day? Also I have a budget in the 300ish range. Thanks what is your power cost? if you do not have really low power there is no miner that will earn 2.50 USD a day. also the s-7 from antminer is 665 plus shipping and you need a good power supply Are there any mid range cost miners so like 300-400$ That can make 5-10$ a week? Or do you know of any low cost like 100-200$ that can make 1-5$ a week? I asked you a specific question what is your power cost. I can not give good info to you because I do not know what your power costs. Its 7c/kWh You could get an Antminer S5. 1.3TH/s at 650W~ with a EVGA G2. But with your electricity costs, most of its earning is already used up by your electricity bill. There's nothing that earn less for that price range, because your electricity cost are high-ish. You'd have to save up 800$ or so and go bigger. |

You still building more rigs? How many GPUs are you up to?
Seems tempting buying more and more but the difficulty went up like 10% in 2 days. crazy at least price is up also.
Lol, enough to be quite happy. Yet not rich at all. Yeah Diff is going crazy high, when the price stop skyrocketing i think it will be all over (The crazy GPU rush). So its a gamble. Or maybe it will stabilize at something comparable to ASIC, profit-wise but less lossy (in term of mining equipment value deterioration)? I don't know. Either way Eth mining is a Temporary thing. still seems like a used gpu could return 50% of its value within 2 months. whether you can continue to make return beyond that, oe have to wait for another gpu coin to be pumped, thats still decent and you could likely resell the card for almost what you paid Are you saying current used GPU ROI is 4 months? Or? True but right now its hard to buy 7950/7970/280X second hand. Those can be resold pretty much at the same price since they are at the bottom of the depreciation curve.
I bought out almost every single GPU in my city. I rather not buy new retail because those depreciate the most.
2 years ago, bought a R9 270X for like $250 CAD and sold it 1 year later for only $100 CAD.
R9 280X retailed for like $500 CAD and 1 year later they were going for $180 CAD.
Wish I got into Ethereum back in Dec-Jan
500CAD seem insane, thats what i bought 290's for and that was when the price was crazy because of the Scrypt rush. Regardless, at current profitability, 200CAD for one of these would be a great deal. But there's cheaper better GPU on retail atm imo. |

I have the ability to produce in China to order cards Saphire Radeon r9 280 at a price of 250S obo. the number is not limited.
What is 250S? The r9 280 series 300 rebrand is going for 100$ for 2gb and 140$ for 4gb so surely you can't mean 250USD? |

Left over from my days of GPU mining.. Partially disassembled for shipping.. $80 + shipping in BTC, shipping should be $10-20 in the US, will ship internationally...  Can you quote shipping to Canada, J8T 8P4? if it fit in a smallish flat rate box/affordable shipping solution i'll take it. (USPS probably) |

I have some Avalon 6 pointed at Nicehash, and I cannot get extra nonce subscription to work for the life of me.
First person to give me the right solution to make it happen gets .1 BTC!
You need to download the nicehash stratum proxy and run it on one of your computers, and then you will point your miners to it instead. This will give you the extra nonce sub. https://www.nicehash.com/?p=asicThe guide is here with the download links. Direct link; https://github.com/Stratehm/stratum-proxy/releasesDid he keep his word and pay the 0.1 BTC bounty to you? Just curious. Never heard from him. |
