Frustration is an understatement; and coming from every which angle. Scamcoins here, shitcoins there; forked chains and the works - hell, I might as well buy and hold. Aside from losing a lil interest, I honestly just don't see mining in my near future so my rigs are for sale, best offer. I don't mind dealing in BTC (escrow is a must!), but I'd prefer verified paypal/skrill/cash/money gift cards - but no other coins.

I'm not trying to make a profit, but I'll be damned if I'll be low-balled either - so just don't. I spared no expense gathering what I needed to set up my rigs... Ok, so the hard drives were hand-me-downs, but everything else is top shelf. I know I won't get what I put into them, but you can peek at my list and see I wasn't chingy.

I would prefer to sell as a package deal, but whatever. I'm too exhausted now to fully put down the specs, so I'll modify this post tomorrow, gotta get some shut eye. If there's anything that piques your interest, holler. But this is everything in a nutshell - set up is 5 cards per board:

10 r9 290s - 4GB... no OC and I got 3.5Mh each card using x11mod sgminer
ASUS Sabertooth mobo - no pci-e slot shorting needed. I plugged 1x x 16x risers right into the 16x slot and it took
MSI mobo (I have 2 of these, one I thought was bricked - read my rep, I gave a working board away)
2 AMD processors; not the el cheapo ones, 6 cores
2 1200w Consair PSU w/link dongle. ATXi - yeah, I went all out

A few other misc things:
shitload of powered risers 1x and 16x 16. maybe 15 of them total
hard drives
8 sticks of 2GB RAM - I was told I didn't as much but used 8GB per rig
external dvd writer
more PSUs I slaved to the Consairs
21 inch monitor
wireless keyboard/mouse
HDMI switch w/cables (don't ask; I ssh'd into the damn things but it did served its purpose)
Netgear wireless dongles - told you I went all out
120mm case fans; a couple glow blue
I'm sure there's more...

This is just what I can remember off the top of my head... don't want to post any wrong specs, so I'll wait to grab the specifics. These rigs have very little uptime, about a week total; still looks and smell new. I'll also post some pics too.

I sold my block erupturers on eBay in less than a week...I'd hate to go there again, but that's where everything'll be if I don't have any takers by this weekend.

Sad to hear your story.
I am a pure BTC miner and can not help you buying stuff off from you.
I hope someone who are in scrypt mining can help you.
Good luck.

Can you list what you actually have and are asking?  I'm probably interested in at least some of the parts but I need to know what exactly you have....

Sorry... hadn't been online. I'll get everything together and post shortly. I got a few offers via PM that's actually making me think this one over. I ask that you make an offer based on fair market value.

"10 r9 290s - 4GB... no OC and I got 3.5Mh each card using x11mod sgminer "

Must have been an experiment.  BTC Gpu mining was done already last summer.   Assuming you were doing Scrypt because the r9 290 didnt come out until late November .  With Scrypt it can do 800-900 kh

Ok... you're an idiot. Didn't I say I used the x11mod mining software? So what the hell should that tell you? Does BTC use the x11 algo?Huh And didn't I also say that they were like new, hardly any mining time? Hey dummy, that means I wasn't mining with them last year. Stupid. Just stupid.

I really hope you get this message... actually - I'll PM it to you.

Hey Assh###  I didnt say you were mining them last year, I said GPU mining for btc was dead by last year.  I didnt even say you were mining btc. 

It was still an experiment, with alt algo and alt coins, if not you wouldnt be selling them here.

Well you used  equipment with a better algo, to seemingly get more power to mine but on worthless coins so you must be smarter than anyone else.  The cards are still good to play games though.

Indeed! lol. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be upset about it - but I'm totally not! Loved the sensored name calling Smiley

Anyhoo - was going to post pics/specs but unless I want my next hobbie not to be taken seriously, I best not sell. Hubbie invested a lot time building me a custom cabinet and installing heavy duty electrical wiring so I could keep close to my shit. He's so awesome!

Sorry all ... Can't sell right now. There's no shortage of supplies being sold, so happy hunting!

Will leave thread open for a bit just in case sampsonn25 wants to talk more trash.

@sampsonn25 - I managed to cop myself a few of the coins still on the exchange lists. Yeah, I tried a shitty coin (FUCK PURE!) or two, but it's all chalked up to experience buddy. And - just because I don't have much time under my belt on this forum, I was part of this community way before signing up. Hell, I mined bitcoins with block erupters.
