Re: Where can I get consultation on setting up my own miner?
Hi I'm completely new at this. I want to get some consulting on how to set up my own miner. Can you please help?
Sure I will help you out.
1) power cost is really important :
under 6 cent you should make money
7 to 10 iffy
over 10 cent you will lose money
this is per kwatt
2) how much power do you have to spare?
a stat of the art miner like the s-9 spends 1.3 to 1.4 kwatts an hour that is around 1008 kwatts a month at 10 cent $100.80 a month to run
3) how loud can you stand the s-9 is over 70db and can whine real nasty.
4) how to you plan to cool your gear 1400 watts is about 5000 btu.
I have 6 units 5 s-9's and 1 s-7 they use around 7300 watts the fans use about 300 watts
so 7600 watts to mine with 68th.
this would cost you close to 10000 usd to set up
this is more then most mine with and I hope to net get back 15000 for my 10000 over the next 8 months
how much you earn per month in USD with this setup...
Well we split coins and I pay no power cost. But I purchased all the mining gear.
So 5 miners cost me quite a bit.
But they are doing 56 th and 28th is mine this month it should earn .94 btc or about 600 usd.
Last month 700 usd month before that was more like 1000 and month before that was 700 as I had only some of the month.
So as of now around 3000. Price of gear was about 8000. So I have 5000 to break even.
If I sold them today I would get about 6500. Which would mean I am up about 1500 on a 8000 dollar investment if I liquidate today. Time span would be June 14 to October 1 for that calculation.
