June 11, 201115 yr Author thanks RKASA! that is it, just 512mb cache instead of 1gb. i will look over that site for other components.
June 11, 201115 yr I think they have outlets most everywhere as well - should have them down there too.
June 11, 201115 yr You do realise that the network automatically scales difficulty as more capacity is brought online, right? If this is actually a money-making exercise *buying* hardware might not be such a good idea. There are alternatives, like contributing your existing capacity to a collective.
June 11, 201115 yr Author Yeah, it is set up to increase difficulty to keep the production of coins fairly constant. I think it changes every two weeks? And no, it's not a money-making exercise as much as a learning exercise. I have always liked to build my own machines, and I am interested in learning more about cryptopgraphy as well as building my first pc with linux and no hard drive or optical drive. There is a client that runs on a thumb drive called "linuxcoin" that a bitcoin forum member is developing. If I make money, cool, and if not I will learn a lot in the process about Linux and digital currency and encryption. And I had planned to mine with a pool from the start. As of right now I have no machine here that is suitable. You do realise that the network automatically scales difficulty as more capacity is brought online, right?
