Doubt so, there seems to be a lot of complaints against BFL still. But if they really ship in mass, maybe I will try to get a unit. But hopefully soon, or the difficulty will make it impossible to have an ROI.
I think don't even need to think about it because their backlog orders still need 90days to clear by the time you order and wait for your delivery will take years to ROI |

I tried mining FTC and CNC the last time, and also YAC. I know they seem to have higher profitability right now, but the trouble of finding a pool and reconfiguring the miners and all that, and finding a decent exchange are all very troublesome haha.

I only mine BTC mainly and LTC once a while.
Trade/Speculate for the "penny stocks" of other alt-coins on BTC-E and vircurex.

So my 5970 GPU died today. Might drop by to see the owner of fybsg in July or Aug 2013 if plans go well. Is there any BTC meetup in SG yet?? Do start one and inform me.

How does a GPU die?
I have never had one die before, but then again, I never mined before till now.

+1 but looking at it the options are very limited... ASICminer - blades or USB the only ones delivering but high cost BFL- still unknown delivered or not and if we order when will it reach? Avalon- is another waiting game KNC- unproven Bitfury- unproven So if you want to do it quick and don't mind a big hole in the pocket only ASICminers blade 1pcs with current BTC rate is 5,000usd and then there is another thing we need to find hosting  in Singapore |

I am quite wary about pre-order, will they ship in the first place and even if they ship, how long will it take, given that Bitcoin difficulty is increasing exponentially.
