Wow thank you all for the answer I think I will just sell it and get some GPU's and begin mining. What do you guys think about this guide (http://www.cryptobadger.com/build-your-own-litecoin-mining-rig/) I want to follow to mine other currencies by joining a pool that switches to the most profitable coin of the day? Is this worth my time and effort?

Thank you all for your very quick responses.

Dam it I was really hoping this would go through, but thank you for your fast response. Other than selling it is there anything at all  mining related I could do with it? If no mining at all is possible there has to be some other application for alternative currency related I can use this hardware for to get some money from.
Short answer? Just sell it and don't even bother.

Long answer? You have a few options:

1) Find some altcoin that can only be mined by CPU. Primecoin comes to mine, but you won't make hardly any money from it.

2) You COULD buy a pair of GPUs, some riser cables, a second PSU, and run some GPU Scrypt action.

3) Use it as a controller for a bunch of USB ASICs for BTC mining.

Almost all 3 options have better alternatives if you were to sell it, and buy newer hardware that would do a better job.

great post but even better gif man had to complement the bruins gif  Grin

Best analogy is that you have a warehouse full of old-model pickups and want to compete in Formula One.

Those Dells have some grunt, but are power-hungry CPU only.

A Dell PowerEdge 1800 with a 2.4GHz CPU? You can't really mine anything on that. You're best bet is to sell it on ebay, and buy some dedicated hashing hardware: either a GPU for Litecoin or an ASIC for Bitcoin.

there 10,000 in the room and the room was intense to say the least.


How big is this room? I doubt 10,000, though it's quite possible as we still barely know what we're dealing with.
Pics very soon by tomorrow since I am off work very sorry once again for the waste of time

rofl his name is hankhill69 and u think he is being serious... facepalm

Hi Everyone,

I work in finance not a computer whiz at all but I got a buddy who has 240 gh/s dell server, what can we do this if anything at all?

Thanks everyone,
Hank Hill

My money's on 240gh/s actually being 2.4GHz.

you can probably play Duke Nukem on it. Bitcoin mining, not so much.

Sorry for the vague details both my partner and I are finance guys and we are going to take a look tomorrow at it  and will post back with details. Sorry for the vagueness I am still learning computer science this stuff is intense, but changing it changing finance I got to be in the forefront of this.

thank you all
Post a photo or two of the rig and I'm sure you'll have all the major components, hash rate specifics, etc. spit out by a fine member of the community within hours I suspect Smiley

*Assuming this isn't a misunderstanding of some sort. Find it kinda strange for finance guy to be looking into purchasing a mining rig...unless your getting a sweet deal on it. Anyway, good luck.
Its literally free I just have to go pick it up, from work
