Anyone here ever look into those Butterfly Labs boxes? They seem to extraordinarily good. The new launch of the Bitforce SC is supposed to get 1,500 GH/s (but it costs $30k). Seems kinda fishy on that number seeing as that would be like... 500 some coins a day, but some people with the Mini rig are claiming 50GH/s which is still a very hefty amount of coins. (15k for the rig though)

weird shady shit bro, but if they do work, people will need to buy them to compete

150$ for 4.5GH/s
I might actually buy that.
I cant get more than CPU 20kh/s GPU 40kh/s
-----
and the gpu one is a total killer.
at the current rates is not worth it.

It smells like a scam that's for sure. Like the 1,500 GH/s one. It's s pretty damn significant jump in GH/s.. I wonder what the power consumption is for the higher end ones.

I never got that bitcoin thing.
You basically create currency out of fucking nothing?
They give you some algorithms to solve and you gain those coins at a static rate?
What the fuck man.

I believe it is a cloud clustering network and you get paid for helping the cluster. otherwise yeah, it doesn't make sense.

Butterfly Labs have my vouch. They've been producing the the mainstream Bitcoin mining tech almost since Bitcoin began, and nearly every top miner depends on it. They wouldn't suddenly scam everyone through preorders when they've already basically monopolized this market.
Nice job Brolock, glad to see someone else here also sees potential in LTC.

Nice job Brolock, glad to see someone else here also sees potential in LTC. | I'm just saying it's a pretty big jump from 60GH/s to 1,500 GH/s. But if they can pull it off, good on them.

with my rig I get 4LTC a day which is around 0.2$ a day
its not worth it at all.
50Khz/s * 3200 *(LTC/Khz ratio) = 4
basically you get
Your speed in Khz * 0.0015 LTC / h
and lets see..
with a 150$ investment for a rig that can do 4.5GHz
4.5Ghz = 4500000KHz
4500000 * 0.0015 = 6750LTC/h
which at this ratio 1LTC == 0.05$
337.5$/h
it is way too good to be true...

worksize 128

threads_per_gpu 2

lookup_gap 2

long_polling yes
I have a 6870, and then ts overclocked like the pic shows, coreclock between 900-1000 depending on how hot it gets (900 during day and 1000 at night mostly) and then memory clock all the way down since it doesn't use it and that makes the card really hot.
Im mining bitcoins too (im just trying different shit out) at 300Mhashs/s with my 6870 with pheonix miner with a patched kernel set to "-k phatk platform=0 device=0 VECTORS2 BFI_INT AGGRESSION=12 worksize=128"
I try to make sure it doesnt go over 70C, right now in the morning when its really cool the coreclock is at 950 and its only 66C. I have my sidepanel open and an extra fan on it, I like the noise so it doesnt bother me
im using msi afterburner for all the overclocking shit, its really good, I had some problems at the start but that was fixed by changing it to 'unofficial mode' or whatever which you can just google to find out.
heres pics of bitcoin mining, since my op was litecoins
@gogo, its an investment right now, ltc can go up. anyways , most people mining ltc just do it because they already have btc mining rigs. maybe you should try joining a pool though, might go faster.

I updated my calculations.
I was minning in a pool. http://litecoinpool.org
for 150$ you get 337.5$/h running that jalapeņo
It looks too good to be true man.
I might order one just to try (It might look too good to be true but because of the low price I'm starting to consider it a doable risk)

difficulty will increase once they are released, remember that bitcoins are to adjust for the more people/power mining.
