Um how do you plan to fit more then 4 cards on that mobo? There's only 4 pcie slots. 

I'm using windows at night now because it drops below 60 degrees here. I haven't given what you said much thought yet but opening two windows in different locations tends to move air around quite a bit. Unless its pouring buckets I doubt rain would get in. As the temp drops though you can probably get away with the windows being open an inch or two which will prevent snow and other stuff from coming in.

Got this item from CanaryInTheMine's raffle (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=38000.0) As you can see the grill has been clipped. It was just so the card could fit into a case. It doesn't effect the performance of the card what so ever.

I don't have space for it in my current rig set up so I need to sell it. I'm willing to sell it for $130 in bitcoins and this includes shipping (CONUS). Thanks

You might be able to fit another 6870 on there but I wouldn't personally try to put another 5970 in your machine. What mobo do you have? It might not even be able to support more then 4 cards.

I didn't think it was too bad. It does run a little louder then gpu fans but that should be expected when it pulls that much air through it.

The 3/1 ratio seems pretty accurate. I have 5830's running at 1030/350 and 5850's running at 940/325. If I push the mem any higher it doesn't seem to effect the megahash you get.

That isn't true. I'm running 5 cards with out powered extenders right now and have been for awhile.

It runs at 5200 rpm and moves 241 cubic feet per minute! I used this for about a week and decided to go for an skeleton case set up instaid. It reduced my temps by about 10c and does what it promises.

I'm asking for $25 with shipping included or the btc equivalent to any where in the continental US. At the moment I only want bitcoins. I might be open to lower offers if the price is right.

He did it was in the hardware section, the mining section, this section, the selling goods section. He literally posted this every where and bumped it constantly. I don't understand why people didn't buy tickets.

This is less of a factor for some us now. The temps where I live are starting to drop. Right now its 65 degrees so I've been able to use a window for the majority of the day and I'm running 3 ghash which is a lot of heat.

www.bitegg.net its been around for ever.

I looked up what I was talking about earlier. Its called the pci latency timer. You need more then 64 if you want more then 4 cards on that board.

Newegg is oos now though.

Guess they are almost gone then. People on the fence should make a decision soon before its too late

I say do it I guarantee you'll have fun building your next rig

Is this the only location that's left that has 5970's?

It arrived today CanaryInTheMine is good for his word.

The problem with the trixx one is it doesn't work for 4+ gpu rigs. It doesn't show every gpu. It also is super tiny. I assume the gadget one is some what similar.

I don't know if its the best but I like using afterburner for monitoring my gpu temps. It shows the top temp as well as a recent past history in a graph.

If you still own the 890fxa-gd70 try what I recommended.

I have a family member who works for fedex. I can confirm it does cost less to ship to a commercial address.
