I don't know the exact numbers though because I'm not sure what is considered a reasonable speed to get out of a 5870. I'm getting around 440MH/s out of mine. I can't remember where I saw it, but there was a chart comparing MH/s, cost, and power consumption and the 5870 is THE card to get for MH/s vs. Power used.

these things keep on selling out like hotcakes =) Title: Re: 5870s in stock at Newegg 189.99 Post by: mike678 on July 06, 2011, 07:56:31 PM I'm getting around 440MH/s out of mine. I can't remember where I saw it, but there was a chart comparing MH/s, cost, and power consumption and the 5870 is THE card to get for MH/s vs. Power used. If you add up the costs for a server (bare minimum)cpu- $30 ram- $10 psu- $150 mobo- $140 (if you know cheeper then this with 4 pci express then let me know) hd- $15 PCIe x16 Extender Cable $12*4 5870 $190x4 = $1,153 (440x4)/1153=1.53 megahash per dollar(full server cost) with 5830 5830 $110x4 = $833 (330x4)/833=1.58 So as long as you go the absolute cheapest route 5830 rig at 110 is better but not much so. If you add a case or more to the cost at all the 5870 at 190 will probably overcome the 5830.

If you add a case or more to the cost at all the 5870 at 190 will probably overcome the 5830. The last price the 5830s was available at was $130, not $110. Using that figure the ratio comes out to 1.445 for the 5830 rig, so the 5870 rig is actually more economical. Not that I would dream of buying new rigs right now! Title: Re: [OOS] 5870s in stock at Newegg 189.99 Post by: Mousepotato on July 06, 2011, 08:30:44 PM ^^ Yeah that sounds about right. But when you throw in power draw into the mix, then the 5870 edges out the 5830 setup.
5830 = 310MH/s @ 175w 5870 = 440MH/s @ 188w 40+% bump in MH/s rate for only a 7% bump in power consumption. Just going by memory since I can't find the chart someone posted a while back, so my numbers may be off.

Just going by memory since I can't find the chart someone posted a while back, so my numbers may be off. The 5870 doesn't get even near 440mh/s at stock speeds. You would have to overclock it *a lot* putting the power consumption to roughly 250-300 watts. A 5830 doesn't get 310-320 at stock either. That's the absolute maximum with the voltage and core frequency sky high (past 1ghz).

That's the absolute maximum with the voltage and core frequency sky high (past 1ghz). Yeah, like I said my numbers may be off, but the ratios should still be applicable. I was just going by what I have my 5830 and 5870 running at.

Using that figure the ratio comes out to 1.445 for the 5830 rig, so the 5870 rig is actually more economical. I went with the best possible conditions to show the cheapest scenario. Also just because its not in stock now doesn't mean its gone forever at 110 I mean I just bought a 5830 last week at 110 on newegg.Not that I would dream of buying new rigs right now!

Do me a favor, PLEASE link me to the $140 motherboard for sale with the 4 PCI x slots...

Its out of stock now I posted this about a week ago but here is the link. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138193 Title: Re: [OOS] 5870s in stock at Newegg 189.99 Post by: mvoss on July 14, 2011, 04:48:35 AM Out of stock at NEWEGG, but Google shopping stores have 'em. Not for $140, but $161 ain't highway robbery
