The other more profitable coins are much harder to turn to fiat currency though, aren't they?
Excuse me if I'm wrong, still a newb waiting for my July batch for my first miner.
Newb question. The 500Mh/s that it mines litecoins, does it mine with 500MH/s other scrypt coins too or the hashrate is different?

The hashrate is the same - doesnt matter what SCRYPT coin you mininig.
Almost every altcoin needs to be changed for Bitcoin and that changed to USD or EUR or whatever - you have to choose coin what has a good liquidity to BTC. It doesnt apply to LTC cos you can sell it for FIAT at Bitstamp and some other exchanges directly.
Many very new arent at many exchanges so the liquidity is low if any.

Have anyone found a LTC block with Antminer L3+? I'm starting to doubt that it is able to find it... A4 Dominator is able, I know (I have 270 MH one), but I haven't seen a block by L3+...

Yep found one on Litecoinpool.org Some time ago when i mined LTC. But i have mined lTC for only a few days this year.

Which coins do you mine with L3+ instead of LTC? Can u please share...

GameCredits for example

Corsair 1050HX + Visiontec 400W AUX PSU.

When the L3+ arrived I realized the 1050 didn't have enough cables, so I grabbed an old auxiliary power supply I used on GPU rigs.
Bitmain says you can use more then one so I figured it didn't void the warranty, I had no other choice on hand.

Yes you should use 1 supply, but it will work and has for a few months now on an L3+ the same as it worked on video cards.

*I don't sleep there and I have automatic redundant fire suppression in place.

You can use PCIE splitter like this:

That is asking for a fire to me.. Never again!

How would You like to burn something using 1050w PSU with 850W unit? You can burn miner, but using 2 PSUs.

Are you trying to say that using a 1050W psu to feed a 850W machine will burn it somehow? Really? Did you just say that??

Opposite, macsheadroom worry about burn, if use spitter to PCI-E wire.

Hey guys, the Bitmain APW3++ PSU with 9 pairs of PCI-E connectors or 18 total connectors specifically designed to power two L3+, are any of those connectors removable? Or are they welded on? I have decided I will just use one PSU with one miner. When I get it I want to able to remove half of those cables to maximize cable management.

I would even sell for 6k and buy LTC with that money haha. That's 133 LTC worth. Would it ever mine that much?

It probably will mine that much, but the question is WHEN... 6-7 months ROI? if you pay that much for a miner, why not choose cloud mining over it? No effort, no risk, same price, same mh/s. I have no idea what people are trying to achieve buying miners at these crazy prices. Not like they would be able to sell the hardware after some time as well... it will be worthless. And what if a board burns in the meantime? Money = trash...

Be clever people! Buy your miners at regular prices at most and wait for them till the shipping date. Otherwise is not wise.

it's simple, either buy securely on bitmain.com , but you will get it at your doorstep first week of October , price 40 LTC

Or pay over 6000$us for one from the July -August batch

Or pay 10k$+ for a used May batch , and you get it in 10 days up running.

This.

10k? I might sell it for that price. +shipping

You can also buy individual MHs on the hashnest website. Sure it is not as good as having the miner in your hand, but from the math I was doing you could get ~500 MHs of L3 power on the hashnest marketplace for around 45 LTC.

I used to mine on hashnest and never had an issue Roll Eyes

True the first and second batch on hash nest was great value but the last batch already pushed the limit and right now its sold out :/

I'd tell you those prices are crazy, but i've mined 12 LTC blocks and over 2 dozen Doge blocks in the past 2 months with two units.
Waiting for those numbers to fall off the cliff. Just hasn't budged too much. Maybe 50% difficulty increase from when I plugged in.

Go to https://shop.bitmain.com 40LTC

how much is additional price [like taxes etc]?

Well that depends on the country you live in Roll Eyes

Go and google import tax calculator for your country. That way you will see what computer hardware is going to cost you for import etc. Shipping costs are on the site of bit main.

Are there another option where I can buy Antminer L3+?
