Anyone.. Smiley It seems that all the boards out are in the $300 range and well honestly I dont think that would ROI at all and would just be some device sitting on my desk that might make me some extra cash.

I could melt them, hand them out as xmas pres.. any other thoughts?

I don't understand the question... you have 8 BFL chips, or boards, or full miner assemblies?

If they still produce more money than they cost in power usage, may as well hook them up.

If you're just going to junk them, I might be talked into paying some token amount to take them off your hands, depending on what they are and their condition.

I'm not sure why you think they wouldn't ROI. My 8 chip boards are producing 0.025BTC/day, and even after the next change will probably produce 0.02. Even at the current under $800 price it would take less than 3 weeks to recoup $300.

You should have them mounted and then run them. If I had 8 extra chips Id be searching like crazy for a way to get them hashing.

I'd be willing to pay .44 btc for your 8 chips shipped to GA. 8 chips at .05 + .04 for shipping.

That thread is precisely why I'm willing to buy. I've added 2 chips to Jalapenos now and it's quite satisfying to see their hashrate increase
