Infiltrator Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 $500? Maybe... I love the Antec 900 XD, ram is great.. However your hard drive is sad, water cooling is nice but its a dual core... idk $600? Umm, hard drive is a WD Raptor 10.000RPM, the CPU its an Intel Q6600 Quad core, not dual core.

MasterRaider Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Hmmm you might want to consider a Bitcoin Miner option, located somewhere you don't pay electricity(not your parent house), I know you will won't recieve a lot of bitcoins but, some is better than none and if they worth over $30 a bitcoin someday then you can make a bit of profit.

bobbyb1980 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Depends on where you live bud, that computer in the States would probably cost 6 or 7 hundred usd second hand, europe is a little more expensive and south America/Asia it'd easily be 12 or 1300 usd.

Infiltrator Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) Depends on where you live bud, that computer in the States would probably cost 6 or 7 hundred usd second hand, europe is a little more expensive and south America/Asia it'd easily be 12 or 1300 usd. I live in Australia and I've spent around $5000.00 dollars to build it, in addition to upgrades parts I bought over the years I had it. Furthermore, I would be very lucky if I get $1000.00 dollars for it. Anyway, thanks for your input.

MasterRaider Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 1000 dollars??? Wow that seems a bit high. Maybe because the parts/computers are more expensive in oz than America but you wouldn't be so fortunate in the states. Unless he sells the PC to a complete noob, I sold my old severely USED gaming PC for 1,300 and I built it with $800, just fresh install the OS and remove the non-essentials, and the noobs will never know the different. Remember it been report that people love $20 wine when they are told it cost $150, google it. But I suggest that you consider the bitcoin miner option.

Infiltrator Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 I've heard of Bitcoin miner before, but not sure how to use it. Will need to do some reading to understand it better, thanks everyone for the replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiltrator Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Hey let me know if you find a really good in-depth tutorial/how-to on bitcoin mining. I have been reading into it recently but still want to know more about it, and whether or not it will be profitable. Could be interesting. Yeah, I'm yet to find a good tutorial, until then I'm still looking for one. Edited December 30, 2011 by Infiltrator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niels Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Actually I have been doing a lot of reading up on it recently and am thinking of writing a how-to for it from my understanding so far. I'm also interested in the HowTo looking forward to see something appear on the forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
