What are the small miners in the middle? They remind me of gridseeds. I may be interested in buying them just because I don't recognize them.

The 'small miners in the middle' is the modminer of the subject

The modminer quad is a base board with 4 FPGA modules.  It used to be good-ish for Bitcoin mining (much less power draw than graphics cards) until ASICs hit the market.  Nowadays, it'd be good for just playing with on the Bitcoin side, or reprogram it using whatever FPGA programming you'd like.  Not so good for altcoin mining - graphics cards have gotten much more powerful, aren't as power hungry anymore, many altcoins are outside the capabilities of the FPGAs used, etc.  Would be a fun project to turn it into a vanity miner, though

Ah, may be why I'd never seen it. Just starting to get into the "older" days of mining hardware. I recently started working with some Klondike boards and it's interesting to me to see how far mining has changed.

dmcurser - Can you give me a price?

this is a little more info on what they actuly are make offer im not to sure what there worth nowadays last time i saw on sold was like 8 or so months ago for like 200 or so i think ppl are more buying them for the spartans chips then anything i can say one of them will more then likley need a fan or a good cleaning /oiling

edit shippuinh from 29483 zip code so you know for shipping its light and would probly fit in small flat rate box but i will stop on get one just to make sure
