Hi, I got a package, but only 10 cards there??!! I bought 20 Where are the rest?
Hey as I explained to You in a private message due to huge size of the packages I had to split them in half. You should get second one soon, I am suprised You did not receive them at the same time :O
I sincerelly hope so. You are Polnishe so I am expecting everything from Your kind.
Did You get 2nd package yet? I have checked tracking and it says delivered.
I called DHL, but they said they will provide me more information tommorow.

Main post updated, already converted to cash, some time after BTC started to drop though . But that means less profit for me, no changes for You Very high chance that shipping will take place monday.
Hi, whats the status on our orders?

Woot, noone with balls to buy? How many cards U have left? I from Europe, taking all You have left. Cheaper option, just ship it fast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrTsuvykUZk
TL;DR This world belongs to brave people Or dumb ones as You may call it.
Ok I was right, a shame it broke though. For the next psu, try to get one that has only 1 big 12v line. Also for every psu I buy I google the model and review. I look for a good stress test and read how it went, the thing you gotta look for is how it handles a full load for a long period of time. You have to think that you will use the psu 24/7, a cheap one will fail on you.
pd: I'm running 4 280x under a 1200w gold coolermaster and it runs just fine. To run just two cards a good 850w psu will do.
I am planning costs for my rigs, and I am kinda confused about Your post. If 4 cards = 1200W, 2 cards = 600W. Why You said 850W??

Re: Predicting GPU profitability for the next few months??
I am trying to determine the GPU mining profitability for the next few months, Ill probably be using a coin switching pool with about 15-20MHs. As of today coinwarz has TAG coin the most profitable, at about .0285/day per MHs (Doge at .0151/day per MH). I understand the volatile variables that come into play when choosing the most profitable alt coin to mine (price,diff level etc), but how can you estimate what 1MH/s can mine per day say 2 months from now?
If these coin switching pools are always switching to the most profitable coin, and new coins are always being released, what could be the biggest hit to the value of 1MHs of GPU mining power in the near future? I know the most obvious answer's when scrypt asics come out, but Alpha T still looks like its months away.
Alpha T looks like a scam to me...

[WTB] 280x or 290 cards

up to 25 cards, can pay in BTC or via bank transfer
It is showing up other places - assuming it was 0.0750 BTC going from 1JJ6QjNpE1DSr7x1wwtLh5TtCk5rm3fhvd to 17oUDTDPgZ961o1sasbYS1YrtWD7ha1UAu . Is that correct?
It will in all likelihood go through eventually, but with no fee, and no confirmations there are no guarantees as to when.
If you are doing this in the future, it is recommended to always use a fee unless you trust the person or don't care about the length of time to confirm.
You are right about the addresses - and guess what happened!
The BTC was returned to the original senders address! Luckily I paid with PayPal and I am getting my money back..
Most cards have a 2-3 year warranty but you can't rely solely on that. Voltage instability can burn your cards so you should consider buying a UPS to be more secure if you're going to put lots of money in your rig. Also keep in mind that hardware loses value by time and use after you purchase it.
Yea I know that I can't rely on warranty. Using a UPS is pretty risky from what I head, voltage jumps using it are INSANE. Correct me if I'm wrong.
When the cards are broken after 3 months you might have warranty.
70° should be ok.
Yea, but mining cards used to be at 70° is wasting them! I believe You should take as much as You can from the cards, coz as You said You have warranty. Go big or don;t even try, thats what I say!
It's not late and in my opinion might it will never be late (maybe I'll explain my opinion further in another post). But you'll need to build your own mining rig witch requires certain amount knowledge. Also scrypt mining is much different than how the bitcoin mining works. By breaking it down you'll see that currently the most efficient way to mine is using a graphics card; graphics cards offer you a nice hashrate but still consume a lot of energy and produce much of heat since they weren't originally designed for running 24/7 in oc settings for solving computations such as these litecoin (or scrypt coins in general) mining requires.
I have some basic knowlege regarding building computer/etc so it shouldn't be hard. I will also do some research which cards and mobo I should use. Well even if it won't be profitable, I will still have cards and hardware I can sell, right? How long is a GPU lifespan when it runs 24/7? Will it work for like 3 months or should I expect some of them permorming bad/breaking after this time? I am thinking about 3 cards and using them in about 70 degrees.
That is a good question too actually. Another question of mine would be - will my flat be able to run lets say 6x4GPU rigs? If not, is there something I can do to allow such power usage? I see no problem in connecting cards to mobo etc, that is the easiest part ^^. And I think 280x are the way to go at this moment matey.

Too late for script mining?

Howdy!
I kinda wonder if it is too late for me to start scrypt mining? I have recently doubled my BTC ammount in Doge jump, so I have a fair ammount to spend. What ya think guys?
