Dupra Durpa,
I want to make my own bit coin mining rig. Electricity is not a problem. I am looking for the cheapest way to build a computer with a bunch of graphics cards. Any suggestions for cheap but powerful equipment? Any success stories?
I was going to purchase a 5 GH/s machine (jalapeño) from butterfly labs, but i don't think i will receive it for months.

Okay, about the Cash4Gold letter, it's amazing. It basically says, "we see you trollin'" in a concise and 'fuck you' sort of way.
Now onto your Bitcoin question. Why a GPU rig? Do you need the discretion for the electricity not to be a problem? This is the only logical reason to go with GPU over ASIC.

Yeah electricity is not a problem, but i probably should go with an ASIC rig. What equipment can I buy costly and where?

ASICs are simple, when electricity is a problem you go with USB erupters in a air conditioned space, but when electricity is not a problem you go with best GH/price ratio (fan cooled of course).
