10 GH/s would be too slow now days for bitcoin, if that item can't be programed to work on scrypt based mining with Litecoin or Dogecoin then you are out of luck.

I didn't say it was going to be epic. I'm just testing it out of curiosity's sake.

At the current difficulty and not including power usage it would take 202 days to break even. With power cost and the difficulty increasing, I don't think you would ever break even.

That really depends on the power cost. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5EofwRzit0 This too.

It has arrived. Time to do some testing. Ok, by default setup I wasn't quite getting the 1 cleared. So I'll reconfigure and try again.

where are you reading the 800 MH/s from? pool stats are never accurate, should be reading from the client itself.

ok... Yea the configuration is definately not set right (Thats what the HW:1 means, its should always stay at HW:0) I don't know the hardware those little cubes have so I won't be able to help with that....

I had a brick... new one is running at 12 GHS. Easyminer says I will make $80 a month or 0.09 btc.
_Nite_ Maybe this isn't so bad an idea as before?

Can it be setup to mine other coins? Just wondering.

ASIC = Application-Specific Integrated Circuit; it won't do anything except hash on SHA-256. That doesn't mean you have to only mine Bitcoin. There are other SHA-256 coins out there.

$80 a month for 12 GH/s is terrible, I'm making $400 - $450 a month with scrypt based mining at only 1.2 MH/s You would need at least 5 of those bitcoin cubes running to make what I do and at $350 each that would be $1750 up front you have to spend, $1750 could buy you 8 x R9 270 cards for 3.6 MH/s and get you around $1200 a month.

It's still not horrid. This isn't a bad learning point. From what people were saying I wasn't going to break even in a year of trying this. At my power costs I see myself breaking even in 5 months. But my expense is NOT lost to everybody else here. If I remember you said that 10 GH/S was terrible. Well... it's proving to not be a giant sinkhole, just a slower return. This is still the zero luck factor return. If/when I hit that point then I'll need to update here. Until then I'm still on day 1. Not even full 24 hours yet. So far 4 hours in that's what it says. I'll update if it changes. Fully up and running well. Already earned 0.001 BTC.
