It cooked the original PSU so now I use what I got. 400w for the motherboard, 350w for the 5770, and a new 850w for the 2 5830s ;D

simple / solid Title: Re: delete Post by: mrb on September 12, 2011, 11:20:05 AM This was my first "high powered rig", circa August 2010 Where did you get the OpenCL-miner on August 2010? :) I work for Apple in Cupertino and that's how I originally got involved with Bitcoin. A friend of mine, An Apple OS Engineer is one of the earlier adopters and got me involved. I used his version until the better ones came along. Contrary to what ArtForz claims he was not the first GPU miner nor did he ever control 25% of the network. I know personally of a three 4850 rig in May 2010. In May 2010, the hashrate of the global Bitcoin network varied from 70 to 150 Mhash/s: http://bitcoin.sipa.be/speed-ever.png 3 x HD 4850 are capable of 225 Mhash/s with the most optimized miners as of today: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison So, assuming that this person he knows wrote a poorly optimized miner running at only ~2/3rd this speed, and was online only half the time throughout May 2010, he was contributing ~70 Mhash/s, which could explain the jump from 70 to 150 Mhash/s. BitcoinEXpress's claims sound plausible. |
