Re: [440 TH] BitMinter.com [1% PPLNS,Pays TxFees + MergedMining,Stratum,GBT,vardiff]
many thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated.
Lots to think about but i'll be honest have been looking at mining with a pi so my go down that road - still need to get a pi so just waiting for payday and will then get started.
I'm based in the UK but appreciate the ebay links philipma....checking on UK ebay have seen 2nd hand USB miners going for around £15 which seems decent and thats the price I'm willing to pay.
May just go for a couple to start of with and see how I get on.
I am in the process of building a media pc so was thinking of using that for mining too so may add an ATi card in there which should help with mining - maybe either a R9270 or a 280
I guess its more of an interest but of course if I can make a little profit it always helps.
Again thanks for the advice

Hello I went through the learning process a few months ago ,I'am also from UK .
I recommend getting a hub from here
http://www.scan.co.uk/shop/computer-hardware/all/usb-fwire-io/usb-hubs-and-accessories
The code is LN9748.
It is 7 port hub but you can only put 5 usb's into it .
2 ports are for charging stuff .
These 5 work at a solid 335m/hs in this hub .
I tried cheaper hubs but they do not seem to supply the power needed per port and you start getting errors ,this hub is not cheap but works flawlessly .
Currently it takes about 2 months to get 0.1 btc with 11 usbs which is fifty pounds worth .
Just to give you an idea what return your looking for .
