Title: Radeon 5830 BTC rate
Post by: PwrLeveld on May 08, 2011, 10:05:43 PM
Hi,
I just purchased a Radeon 5830 off tigerdirect.com for a cool $100 with 2 games.
So, as I was getting a nice upgrade from my Radeon 5670 I was wondering what my mining rate would be. I know about the minining comparaion chart but I would like to know actuall BTC rates if posible in hour rates as I can't run my computer 24/7.
Thanks in advance.

Well apparently a 5830 can get up to 280 Mh/s... so you are looking at around 20 days to generate 1 block of 50 BTC at the current difficulty. (Will be 30 days in a few more hours...)

So that's about 2.5 BTC per 24 hours or about 0.1 BTC per hour.

Where do you think the mining rates come from on the mining comparison chart, if not from people using them to mine?

As for BTC rates, put your hash rate into http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php (http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php)
