Will it be fast ROI if we have the 400GH/s hasing power?
let say we are mining using baby jet by hashfast that around $56k

Woking as a binman sucks.
ASIC) Nothing - few fast enough to make a ROI have ever been delivered.

ASIC will be not such overpriced soon so you will be able to mine coins with small investment. Of course if you preorder now the expensive one, good luck  Wink

With about 360 BTC paid out every day, you can get your share based essentially on the amount of Hashing power you have as a ratio to that of the entire network.

I think the answer to all three parts of your question is essentially "Nothing".

CPU) Nothing - CPUs don't hash quickly enough.
GPU) Nothing - the big ASIC companies are making this unprofitable.
ASIC) Nothing - few fast enough to make a ROI have ever been delivered.

Look into scrypt coins, which ASICs are useless for.

For now, but in few years it is very likely someone will fund Scrypt ASICs development

Is a pretty badass calculator as well.

Assume a 0% change it BTC price, and perhaps a 20% change in difficulty?  If you get 200 weeks, then you can basically run your calculations until the hardware becomes irrelevant (if you run a Jalapeno at 200 million difficulty with a 20% change you can make 4 BTC before the amount it makes is negligable!)

If you ain't hashin', you ain't makin'! Grin

BTC is pretty much shot now with all the ASICs coming out, after the manufacturers finally stopped using them to mine their own coins for themselves and begrudgingly gave them to the people who bought them.

Look into scrypt coins, which ASICs are useless for.

100 satoshis -> ISO code

The predicted hash rate goes mental in 2014. Might not happen to the extent indicated though.

Coins in a week - as in whole bitcoins?

Its all about hashrate - not CPU/GPU/ASIC not worth comparing hardware type unless you want to compare Hash vs power consumption (FPGA/ASIC will always win VS CPU/GPU for BTC).

My 2000Mhash rig can mine a whole BTC in about 33 days. (5 Block eruptors and a 6770)

And then you need to look at ROI - you'll never make your money back on some stuff now Cry i bought 2 block eruptors @ 4.2 BTC and 3 @ 3.25 - i've just mined 1 BTC in total 5 i have currently! (2 months)

Hoist the Colours

I've been looking around the forum and couldn't find a thread explaining how many bitcoins one can make depending on the difficulty and computing power. Can some one give me a rough idea of how many coins can be made a week using CPU, GPU and Asics based on current difficuly levels.



Thanks in advance.
