Title: single slot Radeon HD 6850 Post by: rainyn on June 21, 2011, 08:45:06 PM What do you all think about this single-slot video card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1681413143 ? I believe it might be the most powerful single-slot card on the market. It would make it easier to cram 3-4 of them onto a motherboard and still retain some semblance of cooling. Here's the manufacturer's website product overview: http://www.powercolor.com/Global/products_features.asp?id=342#Specification and http://preview.tinyurl.com/3g23bty
By the way, I'm new around here. Hello everyone! -Rainyn Title: Re: single slot Radeon HD 6850 Post by: bogeyman on June 21, 2011, 09:03:16 PM Oh, no,
I just got a HD 5570, because I had only a single slot left. Ok, its cheaper than the 6850, also really slower :-\ Maybe we should add a column to the wiki, for one slots? Just be careful with the cooling, Rainyn, and welcome too.

Yeah you're right. I guess I got caught up in the cool factor of being single-slot. No need paying for aesthetics when you're basically creating a machine sweat shop. Title: Re: single slot Radeon HD 6850 Post by: HideousBeastManGuy on June 21, 2011, 09:20:25 PM It is definitely no the most powerful on the market, and from what I've found, it isn't close to the top of the leaderboard for MH/sec per $.

I know about http://bitminer.info/Is that where you're getting your leaderboard? I would really like to see such a chart.

? Title: Re: single slot Radeon HD 6850 Post by: Bitslizer on June 22, 2011, 02:44:59 AM Mh/J is how many Mega Hash per Joule of electricity.... basically how energy efficient the GPU is, you can have ultra fast GPU, but crazy power hungry electricty wise, some people who live in area with high electricity need to take that cost into account to see if its profitable.
