Hardware for Mining Bitcoins

[Killur]

Hello,
I want to buy some "600 GH Bitcoing Mining Card" from Butterflylabs.
Link: https://products.butterflylabs.com/homepage-new-products/600-gh-bitcoin-mining-card.html

I want to mount them into a Server-Rack, but obviously I can't just stick them in the rack, and here's my question:

Do you know some good "Server" which you can mount into a Server-Rack, which have as much as possible PCIe Slots? I don't need a High-End-Server with 600GB Ram and 8 CPU's, it's all about the PCIe Slots.

Thanks in advance!

The question you really need to ask yourself is do you want to invest in a company that lies to everybody about delivery dates and changes the goal posts every 5 mins.

Do some serious research into BFL before worrying about the logistics of there product

BFL is like the worst ASIC company out there that you can find. Do more research before paying for nothing.

Okthank you guys.
What company do you recommend?

If you have a ton of cash and want to make a huge data center out of ASICS, check out KNCMiner.
If you want to build a small-scale farm, try Block Erupter Blades from ASICMINER, or a USB farm from BITMAIN.

KNCMiner sounds nice, did you already try their products?

You should seriously check the expected delivery dates for the KnC Neptune product, and run the numbers through a competent mining calculator to determine whether you're likely to see an ROI on your investment or not. KnC is very vague (saying Neptunes will arrive in "Q1/Q2") but even if they arrive in March (very, very unlikely) ROI is going to be damn-near impossible.

Everyone bashes on BFL -- even me. That said, most ASIC companies manage to miss their delivery dates, or mislead pre-order customers. It is the nature of the business at this point. BFL is just the most conspicuous example of this.

I have never tried their products since I am just a hobby miner, but they are the leading company in ASICs and have good reputation.
If you don't want to pay so much, you could try USB miners, you can put them into a hub. Like ones from BitMain, the AntMiner U1s.

The price is not the problem, its all about the quality and delivery Speed. Do you know something about CoinTerra and their delivery speed and product quality?

Their reputation is 50/50, and their first batch was sent out late.
This is my personal opinion: Don't pay for pre orders. They usually ship out late or they are scams. Buy existing hardware from Group Buys or official site.

EBay has a fair amount of units from honest sellers.
I would go with something you will get, this year.

You should cloud mine. You dont have to worry about the hardware. You pay for it and then they run it for you, works great for me. Check my signature for more info

It's true that there's a sucker born every minute.

Cloud Mining is terrible. It is unprofitable.
