yeah but mining bitcoin is not that profitable nowadays
you can search for other scrypt coin that give you good percentage of profit every year or
try invest in trading cryptocurrency like dogecoin,etc.

But I heard people saying that they still making money, I've sold all my miners 3 years ago because no profit at that time, but now I think so why not?

 That's a bold plan.  Would you be able to break it down a bit more for us?
Have you costed out the solar array?  It looks like you will have less than $80 per miner once you install that.

there are a couple options...
Like Real-Duke mentioned: http://bitmain.com
But also: https://canaan.io/

These are the only two that still sell new miners that can actually make a profit IF you electricity rate is very good, your import tax is low, you can get a promotion AND you already have a suitable mining room/PSU's/network/...

However, depening on your electricity rate, there are other options:
- this forum.. I've seen a couple of members selling a big chunk of their farm at once
- same goes for aliexpress... I've seen chinese farms selling bulk miners

Offcourse, you're not nearly giving enough info to give you some solid advice. Can you at least provide us with your electricity rate, and possibly your country?

  Well I don't either but why don't you research it?

1) Decide on a miner
2) using its power consumption calculate your total power requirement
3) Locate a decent solar panel supplier
4) Based on their price, and the power production per panel, calculate the approximate cost of your required array
5) Hire someone to install the array (and since you have an idea of approximate cost, it will be more difficult for them to screw you)
6) If you seriously want tips about the solar array, contact Philipma1957

 You'd better act quickly then; they sell out really fast.  Shouldn't you cost out the solar array before you order the miners though?
I think a solar array costs quite a bit before incentives - if your gov't offers an incentive program you might be able to make some savings but would imagine you're looking at $5-8 per watt installed.
so for one S9, you need ~ 1kW = $5,000 to $8000 installed.  Pretty pricey but there may be some economy of scale.

sure buy it:

bad points:

it will need a good psu.
it is loud and hot.
it breaks easily

good points:
it is very efficient



a solar array  is okay in some states as the states have good programs for you.
what state do you live in?

contact buysolar via pm he and I have an array.  he is in the business of solar install in New Jersey. If you are in NJ   he could do your place.  If you are no where near NJ  he could give you an installer's name.

if i have much money like you, then i will buy a new pc with more than one vga cards support and use that to mining altcoin than to mining bitcoin because we know that to mining bitcoin is not profitable unless we have big hashrate. so the option is to mining altcoin and there is many altcoin that we can choose.
