HR,
Great suggestion! Highly productive, useful for new entrants and can provide more knowledge to others!

I bought a kill-a-watt to check my wattage, and doing scrypt mining with the two cards as overclocked as I could get them (and still be stable), my rig was running at 390 watts.
When I bought my ASICs, I left the two video cards plugged in, but idle, and my rig ran at around 85-90 watts, so that's around 150 watts each when fully hashing. My electric bill was $20-30 more than normal each month.
At the time, I paid $119 each for the 7850s (actually, one had a rebate of $30 so really it was 89 and 119), I think it was a great investment especially because the 7950s were $400 and I didn't want to spend that much. Built my whole rig for under $600.
EDIT: as a side note, I got my kill-a-watt because of mining, and I'm *SO* glad I did, because it's such a cool 'toy'. I hooked it up to everything in my house to see how much electricity stuff uses. I had an old VHS/DVD player hooked up to my TV that was using about 10w just being idle - I unhooked that because I rarely used it. And also the CD player component hooked up to my stereo system used like 5-6 watts in it's standby state. I removed that too. It's amazing to see how many things you can just unplug and how much wattage you can save.
You know, we've got a few fronts opened on this thread, some of which are not the most positive (and I take my fair share of responsibility for that), and others, that are a bit more positive and a lot more fun, like this mining rig "front", or 'sub-thread' within the thread, that has me thinking again about yet another that we've mentioned a couple of times about concentrating efforts on bringing new "early adopters" on board. I'm thinking that we could do a lot to help newly interested, ordinary people get involved in mining for the first time by helping them out with rig design. Sound like fun?
I'm thinking along these lines:
Most ordinary people want a computer:
1) they can do other practical things with, i.e., e-mail, scheduling, photo/movie editing, etc.
2) they can also have fun with, i.e., play a game, watch a movie, do video conferencing, etc.
3) that looks like a normal computer
4) for the best value for the money available
That kind of limits the 'high end' design to a two card system, but that would still be a killer way to get started and start acquiring all the necessary skills to advance to more complicated rigs if so desired.
How about we design a couple of options for folks who want all the above options (not all at once, of course ) while mining DGB at the same time?
. . . and keep posting your stats . . . maybe we can get a mining baseline put together . . .
Over time I think a ~28.64 to 1 network hashrate to diff ratio has shown itself to be very reliable, for ALL algos. ( diff * 28.64 = network hashrate).

Hey bogglor, how are XFX cards? They are sold super cheap around here but I've read various users not so happy about them. I'm thinking about getting one.
I like them, they run quiet. I have my rig set up in my basement and I was worried it would be loud, but surprisingly it wasn't any louder than sitting next to a desktop computer.I bought a kill-a-watt to check my wattage, and doing scrypt mining with the two cards as overclocked as I could get them (and still be stable), my rig was running at 390 watts.

HR thank you for the information!
In this moment i only buy DGB, it´s so cheap right now!
In about 2 months i think Digibyte will rise and then i´m buying mining equipment!
In mean time i will educate myself more about mining.
Now i´m on a 3 days vacation and only want to drop this about the contact with mprep.

Back in a few days!
Good work all!

DOGE is merged with all scrypt mining there, so mine DGB-Scrypt and get free DOGE!

DGB disabled again on Bittrex. Blockchain issues every weekend?
Yes, true. What the fuck they doing? DEV just has to contact them in order to keep it up or remove this exchange.
Thats not stabel at all. Not good for DGB!

Just writing to remind you about litebit.eu.
FIAT directly to Digibyte, by many payment methods.
It has been a great way for me to supplement my mining income.

Bogglor,
Is there a maximum reduction it will stay at?

Is there a maximum reduction it will stay at?
YC
YC, the answer is no, but it will never go to zero either.
Start point data was based on money supply and block reward as of today,
and the projections are based on the 0.5% block reward reduction every 10,080 blocks
and the assumption that the smoothed, long term block discovery rate equals current rates.

Hi all,

By the way, if you still afraid the price will go lower, you can dump your DGB to me over mintpal now. Haha
