Kinda weirded out by that.

We live in a small apartment so the only 'convenient' place I could put them is in the kitchen. Needles to say they make a lot of noise and heat.

They's sill fairly profitable, but don't want to miss out on their re-sale value totally.

It depends, ASICs or GPU? If the latter what's model?
Sell ASICs and keep the GPUs

Don't know what kind of GPU is still fairly profitable... Have some ASICs: BFL 60's.

I am selling my usb block erupters. They are still selling for 40$ on Amazon. Which is 4 times what I paid for them. I am dabbling on cex.io, plus I have a couple of block erupter blades I am using now.

Don't sell if you don't need the money, it's still profitable right?

Fuck girls (not literally). We have something way better to do.

All of em, probably by a large margin over your BTC equipment. It's a lot more heat and noise with GPUs though. (Partially sarcasm, 7900/r9 cards are on fire right now.)

I think your girl is right. If bitcoin swigs up a few hundred as I imagine it will in the next three months resale value will appear from nowhere.

Or I could be wrong, and difficulty will pillage whatever is left in value  Cheesy

Have you at least recovered your investment? If you've got several I'd consider leaving some, selling others...

Please DO NOT send me private messages asking for help setting up GPU miners. I will not respond!!!

I have recovered my investment by a loooooong way.

And I think I can sell the miners for what I paid... pretty much the price BFL are selling them for now (I'm in the UK btw)

I'm not much of a miner (I made my BTC fortune in 2011) but I do have a single R9 290X running in my bedroom to mine altcoins for fun.

This thing is the loudest video card I have ever used.

You seriously need to think about why you are wasting time with something like that.

Use PrimeCoin Cloud Mining.

I'd recommend you to sell them. The hash-rate is rising astronomically. You don't know when the small scale mining will become obsolete.

Scrypt coins GPU mining and "Only CPU mining" coins have nothing with bitcoin asics  rising hash-rate.
Calculate the profitability.

Why is he lucky? A girlfriend only brings disadvantages and no real advantages.
Besides it's his miners and his decision what he is going to do.
