Probably not, that's why I gave up in the end.

I should see what our energy smart meter reckons the computer uses on full load...probably not worth it in the end.

I'm getting 0.04 bitcoins/day

which was £19 a day 2 days ago

but with bitcoin prices dropping it's down to about £12 a day now


looks like the price will drop right back down tbh :-(

Prices have already started to rise again. No one really knows what will happen.

I'll carry on mining and if the value goes up again then I'll have made some money, and if not, well at least my games play smoother

there's a limited number of them, so as long as people don;t start to decide they're worthless made up crap then the price should keep rising...

but if you look at the price over the last 4 years/year/3 months you have to assume the recent high prices aren't going to stick

I'll keep mining them anyway... but not going to spend any money on mining them faster etc...


there's been a spike in trade volume today, which normally results in a price increase... I'll be looking for the prices to peek in the next few days to sell... but tbh I'll probably be at work when it happens and miss it :-)

This is working out quite well thus far, 13.8% of a Bitcoin in 4 days and Bitcoin value back upto $700~.

have you sold any before ?  know a decent place ?

got £56 in 4 days so not bad... might as well leave it going :-)

What graphics card are you using?

7990 :-)


my old card was iffy, so I went to upgrade, wasn't going to get a 7990 but couldn;t find a decent card in stock with a matching waterblock in stock... so ended up with this :-)

Ahh that explains it then, you'll soon have your money back

I'm guessing a GeForce 650 tti isn't up to scratch for this...

it'll use more £ in power than it makes you

I bought a usb 3 card for my microserver on saturday and i should have a Bi Fury ASIC arriving today. total spend so far just under 400 quid.
the microserver needed using, and im the sort of person who regrets missing the boat with stuff. so if it stops me moaning in a few years time its well worth a little spend.

i do now need an energy meter, so that i can work out how much its going to cost me to mine a coin. can you still get them for free off your energy provider?

I think they might give them out to oops now.  If you're with British gas you could always see if they will upgrade you to a smart meter if you want to go down that route?
