The only thing you're optimistic about is finding 4 5870's

Good luck with that.

They're not difficult to find at all in Europe.

You can find some, but not at 155 euros. More like at 200+ euros. Still worth it in my opinion, its a very good card, but your stimations are way off. You are going to make a lot less money than you expect.

thx!

yes i know that the value decreased (also wrote that...) i'm just optimistic Wink

ok 60% is really much... also if i estimate that the value is rising it won't compensate the rising difficulty...

i'm still waiting so lets see how the course is changing

take a look at bitcoinwatch.com, BTC no longer is worth $30

hardware is fine, but your estimate is wrong. Difficulty will increase by 60% in just 3 days. So your $85/day becomes something like $50 per day, and then there's the market crash, but if you value BTC at $30, that's up to you.

hi everybody!

since three days i'm using my nvidia 295 gtx for mining.
overall it calculates between 60 and 120 MH/sec. (i don't know why it drops down sometimes...)
but 100MH/sec is much to low for me...

so i'm thinking to buy a pc only for mining! (in august)

cpu: intel core i3-2100 95€ 65W
mb: ASUS P8P67 WS Revolution Rev 3.0 207€
graca: 4*Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 155€ each 188W each
ram: g.skill 8gb ddr3-1333 51€
power: Xilence Modular Series 1200W 150€

TOTAL: 1123€

the system should calculate 1600MH/sec.
using http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php
it sould "produce" 85$ per day. ~60€ (i estimate with 30$ per BTC)
so in one month: $2,586.87 ~ 1800 €
if i calculate the fees and so on i estimate about 1200€ per month.

my adwantage is, that i don't have to pay for the needed powerusage

what do you think about this systhem?
is my calculation right?

does somebody know why the btc/$ rate decrease so much yesterday?

best regards
mooks

pp: sorry for my bad english
