I was just wondering what company everyone likes to back?
I myself have only had Bitman Antminers S3, S4, and S5 I like them they are reliable once I have them set and running they are pretty much worry free. But I was thinking about branching out and seeing if anything else works for me.
to get 0.3BTC a month you would roughly need 1000GH/s at current difficulty
that being said and efficiency not being a factor your quest to find miners for $200:
6 antminer S1 = 1080GH/s ~ 0.319BTC/month you would have to find them for ~$34/each 3 antminer S3 = 1323GH/s ~ 0.390BTC/month you would have to find them for ~$67/each 1 antminer S2 = 1000GH/s ~ 0.295BTC/month you would have to find it for $200
Now that is without psu's
as far as noise the S3 is the quietest of the 3 and produces the least amount of heat but finding them for that price will be hard to do
I have 3 antminer S5s and 1 S4 and atleast once a day one of the S5s will just stop hashing and when I log into it and click on status it will not go threw so I have to reboot the miner. All three of them are running the latest firmware and not overclocked ever. Anyone else have this problem? Or know how to correct this problem?
