Re: bitcoin miner

A few weeks ago you wanted to set up your own homenetwork, then you wanted to refurbish several computers, then you wanted to get intimate with Arch, I also remember there was something with programming and security, now you want to set up a mining rig with Windows. Aren't those a bit too much projects you 'advertise' or ask for in short postings? *rolleyes*

There are hundreds of links out there: weusecoins.com, bitcoin.it/wiki, startbitcoin.com, bitcoinmining.com, .. I'd strongly suggest some initiative on your own. Beside that, mining Bitcoins on your hardware at home is not profitable anymore for a long time now. Dogecoin or Litecoin is the way to go for that.

Re: bitcoin miner

Man, how much is your bitcoin mining rigs budget? To tell you frankly, GPU mining is not profitable anymore due to increase in hash rate. If then you really want to mine, join pool mining or upgrade to a better mining hardware like ASIC.
