Simply building a pyramid out of them won't work.

Basically, if the poster had been serious, it'd mean he bought cards capable of around 140Mh/s that use 244W of power to do it and cost $500 each while he could buy Radeon HD 6870 cards that can do 300Mh/s with 170W for around $200 each. - Joel Title: Re: Went all out and just maxed out my CC on new video cards (over $30K) Post by: Cluster2k on June 26, 2011, 02:04:04 PM Nice joke, well played.
