123.00 x 10 = 1230

2.6 (optimum) x 10 = 26


lets put that all together hey ..

$1230 for 26 GH in the hand.

ok its still cheaper than the pipe-dreams i see on ebay.

but i'd say:


 "supporting the network..." charity , if you are into charity i guess ?

Yeah, I bought three of these and now I'm wishing I hadn't. Exponential difficulty increases will kill their profitability very quickly.

Really nice looking USB ASIC... good for showing off right? Too bad the expected profit isn't good or I will buy it too....

These are a lot cheaper than those old 335's were when they first came out. I was tempted to get some to replace my old sticks but I don't think I could get much for em.

I thought the latest version of cgminer supports it, but not 100% sure of that.

cgminer supports it natively, and like all usb devices on cgminer, you need to associate the winusb driver with it (see ASIC-README)

You can get AntMiners (1.6GH/s) that can be overclocked to 2.2GH/s (with adequate cooling) for around $80 USD. This is an alternative I have chosen more-so for fun and understanding of SHA256 mining. I don't think they're all that worth it; scrypt mining is the way to go.

Is it worth buying a bunch of these for $90 USD each?

Not if you ever want to make your money back.  A single Red Fury at 2.2Gh/s (which is what they typically run at) will mine 0.0004 BTC per day at the current difficulty.

Is it worth buying a bunch of these for $90 USD each?
