$2850 isn't shit for a bitcoin tattoo on your pussy
even if btc grows to $1000 per this woman is still gonna be a whore

And then they wonder why people are racist. Because of life forms that exists such as the one above.

You guys in the USA have pretty low rated installations. Here in the UK all household sockets are rated at 13Amps = 3100W so plenty of power for the rigs.

For example my flat has 3x 30Amps circuits for the power sockets and 2x 5Amps for the lightning.

I got the same idea, but still it is an inconvenience which I'm not happy to tolerate. And that doesn't solve the problem with the heat in the corridor, which will most probably be unbearable.

Btw I have a big business centre building nearby with AC offices to let and I was thinking of getting one only if I can get free electricity which will be awesome. Might have a hard time convincing them the rigs won't use a lot  Grin

I got a question: Why did you choose this specific place of your body for the tatoo?

The setup in the signature = 0.800kWh = 19.2kWh a day x 0.10306p = ~£2

So 1BTC costs £2 ($3.18) to produce

Uh, the ROI is negative in every case, so why would anyone buy a service from you?

You have to be extremely stupid to fall for this  Shocked

I bought an Energy Meter to see how much electricity my rig uses, so:

4x XFX 5870 @ 960Mhz Core & 300Mhz Memory
Gigabyte GA-770T-D3L
AMD Athlon II X2 250
2GB 1333MHz DDR3
USB Flash Drive
3x CM Sickleflow @ 2000rpm
===================================
800-815W from the Socket depending on the time of the day
830W Peak

So the components use around 730W when the efficiency of the PSU is taken into account.

On 5830 + SDK 2.1, it's slightly slower than the previous version. Guess I'll revert it back.

Same here. With the previous version my average was 1758 and now it is 1756.

This is for 4x 5870 @ 960Mhz Core & 300Mhz Memory
SDK 2.1
Ubuntu 32bit

Thanks for your replies.

It looks like I won't be building these as I don't have a place to put them apart from my flat, which will be very inconvenient Sad
1551  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Noise and Heat Levels with multiple systems on: July 11, 2011, 03:47:51 AM
So currently I have a dedicated mining rig sitting in the corridor of my flat and being just 3.6m away from where I lay my head to sleep with one door in between.

1 - I'm curious what will be the subjective noise level increase if I add one more machine emitting the same level of noise? Will there be any difference at all?
2 - What about with 3 rigs in total? Will I notice a significant increase in noise levels compared to just 1 rig?

The weather in the UK is pretty good for mining even in the summer with daily temperatures being in the 20C region at the moment
3 - Would 3 rigs create much more heat compared to one? If there is some air flow created by opened windows at 2 ends and the air temps in the premises are 25C is it reasonable to expect 30+ with 3 rigs?

Thank you.

Or should I buy this?
http://www.arctic.ac/en/p/cooling/vga/20/accelero-xtreme-5870.html?c=2182
 I'm using the sapphire 5870 now, I really don't like the noise if their fans blow over 50%. Sad

Or is it ok as long as I keep my temps below 90°? My target was 80° but I read that below 90° shouldn't be a problem for the 5870's.

I wouldn't recommend you keep your cards at constant 90°, not even 85°. Try to be below 80°.

1554  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Need help making or finding a list of megahash speeds on: July 11, 2011, 01:24:29 AM
Diamond 5870 1GB reference
  • Core 990MHz
  • Memory 355MHz
  • Phoenix 1.50
  • VECTORS BFI_INT WORKSIZE=256 AGGRESSION=11 FASTLOOPS=false -k phatk
  • 438MH/s

HIS 5870 1GB non-reference
  • Core 1020MHz
  • Memory 355MHz
  • Phoenix 1.50
  • VECTORS BFI_INT WORKSIZE=256 AGGRESSION=11 FASTLOOPS=false -k phatk
  • 450MH/s

Speeds at normal clock:  Unknown

I get 440Mhash/s at 960Mhz Core, so you might want to try and tweak it further.
1555  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: If I were to setup a mining rig right now, what would be the best setup? on: July 11, 2011, 01:18:17 AM
It all depends on your local market GPU prices, but in general: 5850, 5870, 5970 and 6990 are good, but then again it depends how much you can buy them for.
1556  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Does underclocking reduce power concumption? on: July 11, 2011, 01:11:09 AM
Yes, I got mine @ 300Mhz, but have no data for the power consumption decrease. Probably not much to have a profound effect on the power bill.
1557  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: 475+ Mhash/s 5870 - Voltage mod and overclock on: July 11, 2011, 01:09:45 AM
Ok, you will satisfy your curiosity and find what is the maximum stable clock for mining, but is it worth it apart from that? Probably not.

A quick comparison: mine are @ 960Mhz Core = 440Mhash/s, so you get 35Mhash/s more = 0.6BTC more a month than me for the much higher chance that your card will die much sooner than mine. What about electricity?
1558  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Will this Rosewill LIGHTNING-1000 PSU be enough for 4x 5850?? on: July 11, 2011, 01:00:58 AM
I got 4x XFX 5870 @ 960Mhz Core & 300Mhz Memory + cheap mobo and cpu + flash drive to boot Ubuntu from all powered from Corsair HX850 Wink

So 1000W is more than enough for 4x 5850.
1559  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Does underclocking reduce power concumption? on: July 10, 2011, 11:33:05 PM
Power consumption is less, but not a significant difference.

Have you installed screen? - sudo apt-get install screen

And always use sudo to make sure everything runs with elevated privileges.
