I think most people here have more than enough PSUs - question is how much (and what is) an RPI...

[edit] ah raspberry pi - $60 from amazon

No one should pay $60 for a RasPi Model B.  It should be $35 plus whatever shipping cost charged.  The cheapest I've seen in Amazon is $37 including shipping (and a UK version at that).



Well £36 pounds for a starter kit (you're going to need a wall charger and SD card) is about $60

Thanks, that's tempting - 2 BTC for 800 GH/s plus $200 shipping - hope bitmain is watching this...

Too tempting had to buy one to try it out. RaPi I have. PSUs I have. I wish to see new Friedcat chips.. Bitmain we have seen Smiley

Jack's site gave me Total (Shipping fee not included) 2.06444018 BTC
I have bought him before customer support is bit dodgy but they have shipped out hundreds of miners. I have buy very first Dragon 1T from him.

-edit- no idea how shipping is billed. I will wait and see.


Let me know how you get on pls

It will add up more than $1800/TH  usd after you factor psu less hashing power, pi. and shipping.

Most people already have a PSU (or plenty of). The point is bitmain is no longer the best deal and once asicminer get their feet back in the door...

thats twice the price has gone up in the last 3 days...

why not just charge in BTC??

Its disgraceful keep changing the price so we can hardly earn a satoshi no matter what the  BTC price does!


They do charge in BTC.  They only quote in USD, (and BTC right next to it).  The price is dropping.  Right now they're at 3.961 BTC.  Just earlier today they were at 4.02ish.  They cost less today than they did two days ago when I bought mine.  How hard is that to comprehend?

And before you say that if you buy in fiat the price has gone up then let me just counter that by saying that if you start mining with one you're also going to make more fiat than you would have done as well.  You can't have it both ways.  You either price in BTC and the cost has gone down while the earning potential remains the same, or you price in fiat and the cost has gone up but so has the earning potential.  Take your pick.

who said it was hard to comprehend?

if the USD price had not been raised AGAIN - the BTC price would actually be reasonable rather than STILL disgracefully high

duh
  I have to side with you.

 Also right now asicminer new gen gear is selling at 1170 usd for 800gh   

    so do I want to spend   2309 usd here (well 1909 usd after coupon)  and get a 1000 gh unit or do I want to spend 1170 usd and get an 800 gh unit.

   I have to add a psu. I have one.

I have to add a rasp Pi  so  for 1230 usd I get  800gh vs   1909 for 1000gh   

 This is very simple if the new asic miner 800 gh machine is good these s-2's are very overpriced.

Got a link to the asicminer pls?

bitmain price for now is whatever is better for them to max their profit. If BTC going high then price is in BTC and if BTC going down then price is in USD Tongue
