Hey, I'm quite new to bitcoins!! I didn't know about them a few months ago....
It's been my new hobby / addiction for ages now Smiley I tried with very little luck to try and mine my home iMac for bitcoins but as you all know it's pointless anless you have special hardware!!
So I decided to look in to hardware options to help mine for bitcoins faster.
After a couple of weeks of research I decided to go for a Bitfury miner as they can be expanded easily Smiley

I found one in London so went and collected it yesterday, the guy was bitcoin crazy and had lots of mining equipment running all over the place!! 

I got it home and set it up and it's running at 100 ghz and producing 0.1 Bitcoin daily Smiley

So in 10 days I should have my first Bitcoin!! 

I really do think that 1 bitcoin will make $1000 soon!





Bitfury M-Board v2.3
Bitfury H-Card x 3
Raspberry pi computer
Psu

Have any of you guys tried anything with specialist hardware??


Wow, that setup looks pretty amazing.  Mind me asking how much you had to pay for the bitfury miner?  Just curious what the ROI is these days on mining.  Obviously no one knows what the price is going to be like in the future, so hard to gauge the return.
