but if you need heat and have free electricity this rig is good.

also it can have enormous collector value after few years if bitcoin still be live.

imagine the collector value of the monarch cards they are very rare!

I understand its ineffectiveness in power unless the price goes back up thru the roof but yes its winter downunder in Australia so I have a great heater that makes bitcoin in my lounge room..

& 120gh is hard to shut down no matter how ineffective it is.

The old ASICMiner Blades are hideously inefficient and certainly can't cover the cost of electricity anymore unless it's free. 8-9w per GHs compared to the current gen at less than 1w/GHs.

On a side not for anyone with these boards if the on board fuse blows u can just solder a 10amp fuse around the old fuse & it will work like new.
Ive blown 2 fuses on 2 different cards and they just keep on pumping along.

yes they are power hungry beasts.
you can use chieftec 950W or similar to have good efficiency (below 85%load)

How many watts & volts per blade are needed if i wanna run all ten in the card it sits in??

Old i know but its still 110gh on the networking making me bitcoin??

I wanna run them on the smallest power supply i can, As i have 2 s1's & 1 s3 on the way!

Would i be right in saying they require 75 to 85 watts each to power thus requiring at least an 900 watt power supply??

Many thanks in Advance!
