If you're building a new rig this makes a lot of sense. Use one of these in addition to your dedicated GPU arsenal for an extra 70mh/s or whatever (per rig). The question is why wouldn't you?

GUIMiner will ignore crossfire settings (at least that has been my experience). Regardless if crossfire is enabled or not GUIMiner always displays the GPUs independently.

Upgrade to 11.6 driver (delete all previous installs first). Bring memory clock back to stock and see if that stops crashing (then you can start lowering it incrementally). Also use modified phatk kernel here: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=25860.0 phatk is optimized for 5870 and the 5970 is two 5870 gpus. flags: -k phatk VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=11 At 835oc (which is very reasonable) you should see around 380mh/s. Even at stock clock it will blow away whatever mh/s you got with poclbm

Yep didn't realize they were so ridiculously expensive. Seems pointless to create something nobody will buy because your price-point is so absurd.

Quote from: newguy05 on July 09, 2011, 12:53:22 AM It seems you can easily get 400mhash per gpu with 6990 stable, but with 5970 i am only able to get 325mhash OCed to 800mhz. 850mhz gets you 350mhash, you need 900mhz (which is very difficult) to get 400mhash. Also 6990 will resell much better down the road to gamers vs 5970.

Going solo. Would rather wake up to '0' than 'Connecting...'

If you have onboard graphics enable and use for primary display. Run GPUs in background and you should see minimal drop (if any). If not, and you have older vid card laying around, install and use as primary.

If you have a DVI>VGA adapter try using that before buying resistors. Have 2 rigs running 5970s with 1 adapter in each and no resistors.

Has anyone compiled a list of minimal services needed to run a dedicated (remote) miner on Windows 7 64-bit? TIA!

Other than possible downtime, is there any benefit to either setup? (One or both will be dedicated.)
