What kind of ASIC miner are you using? – Nate Eldredge – 2015-05-25T17:56:13.143

I'm not. I'm just using my GeForce GTX 750 TI to mine. I'm very new to all if this. I figured I would give the bitcoin solo lottery a shot. I was in slush pool but I was only pulling .00000050 per block. Estimated time of my payout was 18 months. – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-25T17:59:52.560

1Any kind of mining without specialized hardware is definitely not worth your time or electricity cost. Buying actual lottery tickets has a rate of return that's about 100 times better. So you might want to consider that before deciding to sink more time into this. – Nate Eldredge – 2015-05-25T18:12:37.843

An r-box. Sounds good to me. Will I need an additional power supply? Will this possibly remove the error that I am seeing now? Thanks for the replays guys. – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-25T18:23:52.113

Ordered 1 r-box. Hopefully this will be a good start. Thanks guys for the help. – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-25T18:30:24.950

You're likely to never ever get the cost back for frying your card. Simply an impossible feat to mine with a graphics card. Invest in a new r -box. You can find them on ebay for about $60-100. You'll earn roughly 0.001 btc per day, which is roughly 30 cents per day.

You will need power supply.Be sure to get one with appropriate connections to connect to r-box.R-box uses a measley 100 watts,which is nothing but youll mine not much as well.If your looking to get some return on your box i would suggest rent it out on Mining Rig Rentals.There you might regain some cost.I hate to break the blunt truth to you as well but unless you run a 100 Terrahash Farm youll never solomine a bitcoin.

Thanks. I ordered one from Amazon. It comes with a power supply. Is it possible to mine with like 4 of then at the same time to increase my hash rate? – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-26T18:57:50.847

I figured that I would need a lot of power. If I can get a payout from slush pool that does not take 19 months I will be happy. This is just a start for me. I feel I will be trying to build a nice rig. It will just take time and money. – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-26T19:00:08.577

1You can adjust your payouts on slushs pool to lower amounts.I think the ,minimal is 0.001 BTC payout.That will take you roughly a day with a 100 ghs R-Box,depending on pools luck as well!!.Lately slushs pool hasnt had all that much luck.If you want a gaurantee payout in a day go for a PPS(pay per share) pool. – Dale Jeffery Hefferton – 2015-05-26T19:45:12.380

Thank you. I will check into that when my R-box arrives. – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-26T19:47:01.960

1Personally id mine at www.BTCMP.com.It is pay per share but you can see your progress right in front of you.They do have a minimal payout of 0.001BTC as well . – Dale Jeffery Hefferton – 2015-05-26T19:49:52.030

1Good piece of advice splurge on a 500$ Bitmain Antminer s5.They produce 1 TH/S and burn only 650 watts .Youll like make about 20-25$ per week with it.Not including your cost for electricity. – Dale Jeffery Hefferton – 2015-05-26T19:53:33.380

Excellent. I will make an account today. Thank you for the info. – Sgtpowder – 2015-05-26T19:53:49.717
