What's up GBS I just spent $2k on a 5 gpu eth miner (all zip tied and ghetto as hell) and I'm currently cranking 130MH/s on 830watts. My returns are looking good so far, cashing out on quarter eths, just cashed 0.5 to usd, $128 after all txn costs. Should have paid off in 3.5months, we'll see. After that, I'll sell all the parts and hopefully cash in big! Olive garden for days boys.

For what it's worth I feel like I'm gambling, I can't look at price charts any more it's just too much. I'm cashing out weekly. In 7 years I'll be pissed when ETH hits $8000

Bit of a rocky night for Ol Bessy last night, we were messing with dual mining which slowed things down but she's back up and at em. I was able to mine decred and eth with a ~2% hit to the eth hashrate, however the extra load crashed it after ~15 minutes from overheating. I'll try some gpu-bios mods out tonight and see if I can get these cards dual mining in a stable way. I had to switch to windows too, linux has a dearth of tools for managing gpu clocks and voltages. https://www.ethermine.org/miners/765514Dd42CdD77b1F494f5dF184D6A361be3750 Go go go go!!! (Every time I check on it it makes me smile. Mine Ethereum, it's like mining happiness! Actually don't, difficulty is high enough as it is.)

If you recalled my post from a month or so ago, you would know that I bought a $2000 mining rig (actually more like 1800 as I refunded 1 bad GPU immediately). Today I read a bunch of ill news about the future of polaris GPU architecture struggling against a growing DAG and decided to post my GPUs for sale on ebay. I bought them at 269.99, I posted them for $400 used buy it now, and they all sold nearly instantly. Obviously should have posted at a higher price, but whatever. What blows me away is that at $400, it will take ~6 months to achieve payback assuming 27Mhash (which according to things will be more like 22Mhash in ~10 epoch cycles or so). If the price stays constant without any big jumps/dips, and the DAG growth impact happens as I predict it will, and difficulty continues to climb, yeah it would be more like 60 month payback period. Am I crazy? I mined 2.2eth in that month, and so have accomplished the dream of buying a bunch of GPUs, mining with them, and selling at a profit. A year from now, I'll break down crying when the hashrates never went down and the difficulty dropped and prices skyrocketed somehow. Still keeping my 2.2 as ether. Good day.
