my advice not to buy these g1 nor g2 waste of money and time

So you dont know what you are doing and that is bitmains fault? God its disgusting how everyone uses bitmain as the scapegoat for everything. How dare they become a successful company when others have failed? I mean they should just close up shop right?

Looks pretty nicely built to me.

Bitcoin FTW!
Wonder if anyone has actually bought any of these. Considering the entire miner is pretty much fully custom it'd be hard to resell its parts and it's cheaper to just build it yourself. Besides that you will also need to pay for shipping from China and customs, and Bitmain also has a horrible record as of now.

Any thoughts about these GPU card miners?

I was pretty surprised to suddenly find these.

I prefer to build my own and these depend on price if thye are cheap from China they will sell
and they only seem available for the Chinise so I dont no why they are debatable

Well....what a surprise.....another large corporation that is trying to crush any opportunity for regular civilians to make a business or money on their own. A large corporation that has more money than they could ever spend. This time hopefully they stepped in it. The Bitmain ASIC's business model, does not appear to carry over well to the GPU market. It is inherently grass roots and homegrown. I hope like Hell it can stay that way.

I agree that's what it is and i do hope this time bit main has there ass handed to them for being greedy ...

I hope it stays that way  to:  the GPU market. is inherently grass roots and homegrown. I hope like Hell it can stay that way.

speaking of grass root nm i won't go there .....
LOL. I get it.  Grin GPU mining seems like the only thing left in Crypto that adheres to the original ethos of how this was intended. Hell with all this corporate rape.

Basically this Bitmain GPU Miner is for the lazy.

Next they'll be bringing out their own Bitmain Blockchain and Exchange.

I think it is a bit better to build your own, more fun to.

I agree. I'm making my own now. Not only it's more fun but if you take some time finding some good deals locally, you can build a 220MH/s it at less than half Bitmain's price. Especially in Europe that that 3k usd translates to 4k euro after import.

And there is the resale value people have mentioned. A custom made rig can break and sell the part individually at some times above cost. Who is gonna buy Bitmain's custon 570s?
