Thank you for the reply Smiley I appriciate it!

But say If I really wanted to mine, and I bought GH with hosted mining contracts?
I then buy 1000GH/s for 10k. Any calculations on how this will turn out for a year? If this is calculated before on the forum, I can't find the post.

Thanks in advance
Magnus Smiley

And by the way, with a budget like I mentioned, is it possible to actually make money? Smiley

Thank you again,

Hello, and thanks for the reply, I really appriciate it.

I want to make a profit, and I am willing to spend what it takes, but a price range of 1000-2000 dollars? If there is a device thats great for 3000, its OK too Smiley

Thank you

New miner needs help!

Hello everyone, and thanks in advance for replies!

Im new to mining, and I've started mining with my Lenovo laptop and my "home built" AMD PC.
I registered on the slush pool, but I dont think my setup is quite right.
Can you please help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?

Question 2:

Does 1 worker have to be 1pcs of hardware? So that 1 worker is one PC, and another PC is 1 worker?
Or can one worker be 1 hardware (antminer, BFL product example), so that you can have many workers on only 1 PC?


Question 3:
What do you advice me to purchase as I am new to mining?
I'm currently considering the: Bitcoin miner 7.8 GH/s BFL Jalapeno fra Butterfly Labs
Is that a good option for me?

Thanks in advance,
Magnus Norway

NEW TO MINING: My setup, Is it right?

Hello all miners, and members of this extremely addictive community called bitcoins! Cheesy

I've just got a few questions for, and I am glad for all feedback Smiley

So i created my wallet, and started mining with my computer(s). One lenovo thinkpad laptop and another self made AMD PC.
As I've read, these aint much to mine from and on, so if I like this thing, I will buy some hardware.
Wondering about ANTminer, or https://products.butterflylabs.com/50-gh-s-bitcoin-miner.html ?
Any recommendations?

And about pool, what is commonly said to be the best ones for new miners? I know very little programming and so.

And, is 1 worker = 1 PC? Or can 1 worker be 1 antminer, while you can have 6 antminers connected to you pc, so 1 PC can be 6 different miners?

And last but not least, is my setup correct?
I read another newbie smashing them shares, while i havent found NONE in the past 12 hours?
See pictures below.
