But I need 1 TH/s asic Why stop at 1 TH/s?  or if you want to get a 'taste' of bitcoin mining, start smaller. The suggestion of Bimain Antminer S3 is probably an excellent one. 2 of these will give you close to 1 TH/sec. You could also think about the older Antminer S2 which is 'all in one' 1 TH/s. Cheers |

Thank and always wait for your respone No, you will never ROI your miner unless you have free electricity. Use some bitcoin calculator and you will understand why, make sure to put in 15% difficulty increment. |

But I need 1 TH/s asic Gee if you cant make out the four corners of a table after one has been pointed to you maybe you shouldnt be mining... 2 x s3 makes 0.956 TH close to 1 TH.. 946$ Buy a Raidmax 1000w PSU 99$ Total cost 1135$... A dragon 1TH costs 1400$ if you buy direct at lketc.. 100-300 More $ if you have it shipped... Two s3 are cheaper relatively same real estate And more importantly consumes 200-300W LESS electricity. Cheaper unit price cheaper electricity... Idk how lketc is going to sell anymore units if they do not slash prices soon. |

Thank you You connect the S3 to an ethernet cable and power it with a ATX PSU, as you will be getting two or more, you will need an ethernet cable for each PSU and might as well get a sufficiently powerful PSU to power both. You can connect the S3 to a computer via the LAN at the IP address e.g. 192.168.1.99 (default address) to setup for the pool you are mining on, etc... HTH |

The OP of this thread should NOT be mining BTC! He isn't even willing to do ANY research on his own. He asks the stupidest questions and doesn't bother to read the answers to his stupid questions.

I just start the mining busines so have a little bit confusing,so you think you don't need to count 1,2,3,... before you start solving math? I read all the answer,many of them are really useful for me and I just ask what I should,maybe I am stupidbut I still a human and I have the human right man!  |

The deal breaker for me on the heavier SHA256 miners is the power consumption. Yeah, it'll get 1TH but 1000w is far too much power consumption for my liking.

buying 2 x ant miner s3 would be cheaper and can be overclocked safely to 504gh/s each to a total of approx 800w. and cheaper than dragons also.
