      I know this is a bubble. But i have been doing some serious thinking…

      I can drop another 1800 dollars and get my hashrate up to 8mhash. My mine would then be 6 7950s, a 5850, 3 7970s, and 3 280x. given current trends and a lack of FPGAs on scrypt would you think this is a good move? currently i would pay off my investment in 2-3 months but will that hold? I also have free electricity where i am at.

      I guess what i want to hear is either im a moron and shouldnt do it or im a moron because im hesitant.

        That’s a tough one. I suppose you have to remember that if feathercoin was worth zero tomorrow you would t least still have a large stack of computer hardware which you could sell to try and recoup a little bit of the money. I would not invest anything you’d not willing to loose and I wouldn’t put yourself in any debt.
        Just my opinion in the end its your choice and its you who will get the reward or not?

          I would advice you, first to check if you still have enough power to add a new rig.

          It seems you are running 4 rigs.
          With a standard installation, you are close to the limit.
          Ensure you can use at least 1.5kW more before investing.

            yea i bit the bullet and ordered the parts last night. This will put me at 3 rigs total plus a 5850 (unless i shove it into on of the 3). i have the power with 1500 watt power supplies. Thanks for the support and I think at worst i will break even.
