Title: this is strange and odd. please help. Post by: mlouca on June 14, 2011, 04:55:21 PM This might be odd but im mining at 600mhashes and the card said on the solo mining 5k blocks. do i need to go to 130k block before it can actually find a bitcoin? If it finds a bitcoin will it say on the bottom how many coins i have found/mined? or is there a different option to view what bitcoins you have found/mined.

Just join a pool and get a steady stream from there.

Post by: mlouca on June 15, 2011, 03:04:55 AM that point is that i can easily have 2ghases per second i just need to get an additional motherboard for my 3 6970s. i was asking if anyone can request a motherboard that can actually fit 3 6970s and a psu that can support it. or worst case scenario i get two psus
