I guess buying an antminer S5+ could be a better option and plus as other users have already explained ,you cant even fell it if you buy just 1 miner ??
you make very less Roi's on single miners ..and so if you buy many miners ,those less profits gets multiplied ..so simple.

Problem is it is sold out on Bitmain's site.  No one really knows if they will do another batch or if that was to get rid of last of chips.

This leaves dealing with ebay/forum or the worst resellers.   Some of the prices on resellers are crazy.  But if you can get for a decent price it is a very nice unit.  Just make sure you have the electricity for it.

most of you guys suggested me to run something big in order to see results and profit as well.
But for now I don't have some enough money, how do you think if i buy two s5 antiminer instead of one will it make profit at the beginning.. Smiley)))))

Who suggested big?   I am seeing small ones mostly.

And yes a S5 at .05 cents is pretty good.   No one can guarantee ROI but it is a nice start.

The Antminer S5 consumes 525w in a 325 Hz configuration and produces 1060 Gh/s, it is a great ratio  Wink

i think that start to mining with one gear only is a bit pointless, in this industry you should go big if you want soemthign, otherwise you're earning pennies

i mea we are talking about 0.011, this same amount can be rewached with signature campiagn with few post a day without wasting any electricity

guys how much time does it take you to run the system?? how ofter i should take care of my rig??

i am asking this question because, most of the time i am at the office and i have free time only on weekends. How much time do you spend with your bitcoin miner??  Huh Huh Huh Huh

If you have only 1 miner you have plenty of free time to take care of it.

If a small problem arises, it shouldn't take more than an hour to fix it.

650W should be fine. Although I would prefer 750W just to be safe. Most people I know run 2 S5s on 1300W.


how do you think is it a good psu or not?? http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Modular-Bronze-ATX12V-EPS12V/dp/B00ALYOPSS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1439749105&sr=8-2&keywords=psu+corsair

The S5 does not use 750W as such, it is good to have a PSU which can provide more than what the S5 needs, but you should count on around 590 - 600 watts if you run it on default (350).


can you show me the right PSU for antiminer s5...

if you want to start mining as hobby you can do it and earn a small amount a month
in my opinion better to buy directly bitcoin than to buy machine for mining

you cant profit from just 1 miner ..if you are really into mining then you should build a farm and try to invest as much as possible ..or else you cannot get big amounts of BTC.


i am a newbie in bitcoin mining that's why i want to start with only one miner.... can i get any kind of profit from it??
