So according to my maths current conversion rate from USD to GBP for 5 chips it would cost £175 plus  the cost of a jalapeño say £350 give or take depending how lucky your are, that makes it £525 plus a H100 at £100 = £625 plus postage and your time.... my maths says its cheaper to purchase a pre built rig?? I am assuming this is something you do over time and add to when you have spare funds...

I just had a look at your thread on how you do it.... Gotta say its pretty bloody impressive  Shocked

Also are you in the US by any chance.... 
I'm in the US, MD. If you don't already have a jalapeno it's not a good idea. Likewise if you need to ship internationally.

Mining right now is tricky. Adding chips to an existing jalapeno makes sense, but buying a new one to do it does not. Actually buying just about any miner now does not make sense; the issue is difficulty and power increases.
