Hi Folks,

Have the option of picking up the following:

Average : 220 to 230GH/s at the current rate(0.013 BTC) per hour.

1 x Bitburner Fury 50GH/s Mines between 50 and 52 GH/s

3 x Avalon Mini Miners.. 60GH/s each, Built in WiFi, LAN, Web-server, Built in CGMiner computer, Firewall.

Price 2500

Worth it? Is it a good idea to start here with mining? Any idea what the ROI would be (rough estimates will do).

Thanks in advance

That earning rate (0.013 x 24 = 0.312 BTC/day) sounds too high to me. I'm mining at slightly under 100 GH/s and only get about 0.06 to 0.08 BTC/day at the latest difficulty - that would equate to 0.14 to 0.18 BTC/day for 230 GH/s.

I think the biggest problem with the setup you're looking at is the power consumption - according to https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison the Avalons use 620W each - 1860 Watts is a lot to pay for, and a lot of heat to get rid of!

Good luck!
