Noob level up?

[nepplar]

Not being able to post outside of here is terrible.

[spegelius]

So, anyone building some new rigs?

Nope, no more rigs. Might upgrade some older cards for newer, more energy efficient if getting a good deal... then again upgrading always means you need to spend some money.

But still, new hardware !

very well

hi

Very interesting how this thread (and the ones in newbie) is full of rubbish just for the sake of going to 2nd level

No.  I have determined that, for myself, it's cost-prohibitive and would probably not net any profit.

Same here... I'm targetting the services industry rather than mining or trading; hoping to get a few more games etc online

Are you guys not doing it because of the initial cost for building GPU rigs or because of the looming threat of ASIC? I made my first two rigs last month, one with four 7950s and one with two 5970s. They've been pumping out about 4gh/s and I've made about 4 BTC. Subtract the cost of electricity and one of the 7950s has paid for itself already. I also didn't have all the cards up and running on the same day, more like a week in between the first and last two 7950s. I expect this month to be a little better.

Just keep grinding and kill wraiths, you will eventually level up.

In the meantime, ask a question or promote some kind of interesting discussion.

the only protection against asics is to mine scrypt

True, and that's what I will eventually do if, and when , BFL ships their mystery boxes and Avalon units all get to their owners. As of right now though, I still see profits if the value of BTC holds/increases.

Oh, forgot to say HI.

oh hai

Building a 4x 7950 rig would be ~$2000, give or take, would hash ~2Gh/s, and would take about 6 months to pay off at the current difficulty.  But we can probably expect the difficulty to be up by 50% in six months, if not more.  If I could build it for ~$1000 it would make a better cost proposition, but at twice that it's not very effective against $300 5Gh/s miners coming online now.
