How much earnings from 230GH asic machine?

[rhyso]

Hi, Was thinking of building another rig for mining scrypt in a pool to change to BTC...

saw this on ebay,

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bitcoin-Miner-230GH-s-IN-HAND-Overnight-Delivery-Available-Ships-From-USA-/221368488915?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item338a9713d3

I have never even considered mining BTC directly but that is some serious hashing for nt so much money.

at the current difficulty what would one expect per day from a machine like this...

cheers

0.04412463BTC/day
and less and less with every difficulty jump.

Before you buy the ASIC, please check the profitability...

depend's how much are you paying for miner.
it can earn you around 2btc in his lifetime till July when it will suck more power than earn in a month.
if you pay for miner $1000 you can break even in 2-2,5 months.
if you pay for miner $2000 you won't break even ever.

eBay is really a wonderful place for mining hardware seller.
