I have been GPU mining for about 5 months. I am on the fence a little regarding ASICs. Both philosophically and financially.

Would the L3+ be a good way to dip my toe in the ASICs water?

Any noobie caveats for ordering and paying Bitmain?

Thanks, Frankie

I have been mining bitcoin only for a few years before I started to open to door the GPU (alt).

Litecoin is doing great there days. I almost bought a few L3 but I'm short in electricity at my hosting ... so i want to replace my S7 with other btc miners.

It would be nice buy with the 420$ coupon.

My opinion is yes, it should be a good idea to get an L3, they looks like way more reliable then the S9 which is the main reason i'm not going for any bitmain bitcoin miner anymore.

How loud are they if you compare them to the A741 for exemple ?

just set fan to 30% and down clock freq from 384 to 336 pretty quiet

or set fan to 24% and down clock freq from 384 to 306 = quiet.

they won't do a 420 coupon but they will do a 100 or 200 coupon.
