Post back when you break even.
Include energy cost and your time also.

10.5 months (not including time, but including energy cost)
based on the value of Ethereum @ $300/coin

so I won't post back when I break even, doing this in a way that would make it difficult to track that.
unless I wanted to, which I don't.

??

I'm not building a miner, I was just curious how much a setup like that costs.

I aint got time/monies for a miner.

it doesn't take too long to configure everything. always room to optimize, but that depends on how much time you want to put into it

Shouldn't be hard to track.
Just let us know when you have enough mined to cover initial costs and averages for power going forward.
I know others mining and I'm curious to how this pans out vs other currencies I've been tracking.
You can't say X time cause well you may not find nearly as much as you think, as well as the market being fluid.

Electricity will be paid monthly from already mined coins.
I understand that I can't say x time; however, I did use $300 (currency went sideways for like 2ishweeks and it's $340ish now, so I would call that a bottom). Also feel that stop losses would occur around 310-315 so it shouldnt dip below that. Again, all theoretical, but with some decent backing thrown in - stop losses would account for DAG file size/difficulty increases should they remain consistent.

Once it hits what I think is a high, I'll sell off all but 1-2 eth to cover electricity expenses in the case that the coin becomes too difficult to mine. Then I do etc or zcash, maybe monero.


Also, difficult to do this cause I'm going to be making 1-2 more rigs next month

i suppose I should have said, currently it's getting 159 mh/s @ 970w. I haven't undervolted yet though, which is something I still need to do. Should be able to get it down to 900 watts I hope, while maintaining the same hashrate, or at least 155
