    Also the h110 tubes were too short and didnt reach the CPU socket from the PSU chamber..... so I replace the tubing with this not so slick but BLUEish tubes.... IMO I nail it with the color.

    pGuerrerox reacted to RuecanOnRails in I decided to go back in to Bitcoin Mining   
    True, but you need to compare it against a direct investment into Bitcoin or other Crypto-Currencies. Take the total you spent on the hardware and see how many Bitcoins you could have purchased on that day. Now add up the total amount you've mined and compare that to today's value of the Bitcoins. Remember the investment in the those ASIC's is on a constant downward slide, trending 30% less earnings every 2 weeks. They will not become more efficient, instead they will overtime become vapourware. This will result in pushing your break even day back beyond the point where it will cost more money to run in electrical costs than you earn in mining.
     
    Comparing ROI to keeping cash hidden under your mattress will always see some form of return as cash does nothing but inflate over time. You need to compare the choices you were faced which were most likely buy an ASIC or other mining hardware, buy Bitcoins directly, or do nothing and sit on the cash.

    pGuerrerox got a reaction from KamiKatze in worth it to start mining now?   
    my take is that you have to look at mining as another invesment.... what i did was build my PC, something around 3200Khs, I mine for 4 month getting around 10 LTC (cuz the power in my country is not stable and sometimes the miners shutdown and last a couple of days off) week directly from mining.... I invested around 1500 USD in equipment (estimated)... and invested in electricity to like ~500 more,
     
    what i did was sell all my equipment for almost the same price,, I recover 1355 USD exactly (because high end PC parts are expensive in my country, so I could sell for same price I order or sometimes even a better price),, them I hold those LTC,, gamble a bit, trade a bit, end up with a total of 430LTC.... sold what i needed to recover all my invesment and still have some hold.
     
    My point is if you can finance your gear and absorb the electricity just for the sake of getting LTC as a future invesment mining is not a bad idea, it is just a mean to an end.

    pGuerrerox reacted to AK0490 in worth it to start mining now?   
    How is it not worth it? Now is a great time to be mining. Why do people  somehow always instantly just wants to put mining down?
     
    Here is a story for you. Once upon a time AK0490 decided to start mining. He gradually worked his way up, but in the end he had around 4700Kh/s of mining power with around $1800 invested. The markets are  unpredictable they said, you'll  never make anything they said! Fast forward a few months, the mining rigs plow along with only a few hiccups here and there, then one day AK0490 wakes up and looks at his computer. What's this he exclaimed, Ltc prices are through the roof! 
     
    Final tally $1800 spend on top of a small amount of existing equipment. Litecoin mined 540. Litecoin saved 330. Price of Litecoin on BTC-e, over $9.00 almost all day today. Could sell for $3100 today. If I had saved everything, over $5000. 
     
    Summary:  Don't listen to the haters, try things out for yourself.

    I think Bitcoin is not a fad, it was launch in 2008, so its been out there for 5 year already, the coin had some ups and downs but it has found its way up again, at the moment of this opinion its valued at ~120 USD per coin.

    As many members already said, Bitcoin is a Crytocurrency.
     
    What backs the coins?  It gets its value from different factors, the physical ones are electrical power and hardware, them comes the especulation, availability and demand, and many other factors that affect the market of Bitcoin.
     
    What regulates the coins? It is not regulated by any government or institution, how fast/slow and how many bitcoins are produce is regulated only by the Bitcoin network itself, nobody can regulated bitcoin, they can only regulate the transactions (maybe).
     
    Why do you have to mine them? In reality all the bitcoins are in the blockchain, and nobody really have any bitcoins, what people really have is a key to access their bitcoin in the blockchain. So you have to mine them to find keys to access the coins in the blockchain...
     
    Is part of your mining going to something productive? Well it depends what you call productive or productive to whom.... because if you get bitcoins i guess its something productive for you. So i think  mining does something productive. 
     
    How can bitcoins be worth a few dollars one month, and thousands of dollars the next month? Well it all starts with speculation, demand, offer and many other things also depends on other crytocurrencies, so its like any other good in a trade it can go high or down.
     
     
    Basically, it's used for buying illegal goods (silk road), money laundering, and VPNs. So in the end it can do the same things that any other currency (ex. dolar, euro, pesos, etc.) 
     
     
    can you tell me what is behind the USD apart from the trust of the users? (and apart from a big dept to china)?
     
    also ASIC's are not GPU, ASIC's are processors programmed to do only one thing, in this case "mine Bitcoins"

    pGuerrerox reacted to RuecanOnRails in won't bitcoins stop Working?   
    First bitcoins will not "run out" their market cap is 21 million "coins" That date will happen in the year 2140. Even after that day, every transaction has a small fee which goes directly to the miners that will allow mining to still occurl.
     
    You can read through the wiki's to understand it better but here's a quick break down.
     
    Bitcoins half in output every 4 years (started at 50 per block now it's 25) It also follows a very strict target amount of coins to be released in a time period. Every block has a target time of 10 minutes to solve. Every 2016 solved blocks the difficulty is adjusted to ensure that the target is being met.
     
    As hash power is increased the network is able to solve blocks faster than the target of 10 minutes. Bitcoin then corrects itself by increasing the difficulty to bring the total time back to 10 minutes. In addition it also adds a little more to over correct for the extra coins that were solved to bring the 2140 target back as well.
    The same goes the other way, if all of the sudden a lot of mining power disappears and the blocks take longer than 10 minutes to solve, the difficulty will be adjusted downward.
     
     
    There is no issue of coins running out, or it becoming to hard to mine. The network adapts to changes to keep everything on track to continue meeting target times. The main issue to date are the ASICS which are currently causing slightly more centralization due to their scarcity and only a handful of people having access to them. This is only an issue until ASICS are more widespread and easy to get. Currently the only way to get an ASIC is to be put on a several month waiting list.
     
     
    Now the issue of transactions getting too big, that issue is likely related directly to the size of the blockchain itself. More transactions per block will increase the size of the blockchain which is currently 10GB for 4 years of data. By the time we run into storage issues, storage should be cheap and abundant enough where even a 1TB blockchain won't be much of a problem.
     
     
    If I missed what you're saying entirely please rephrase and I will clarify or answer further.
     
    You can give this a read if you like, might explain a few things you previously didn't know or understand.
