I've been actively trying to burnout my 5850... lol it's old and my wife says I can only have 2 GPUs so this is how I must get a new 7950
It's been running 24/7 at 90-95 degrees for a little over a month.
That damn thing gets SICK and DEAD, but a restart revives it.
It's never gonna die.
wow dude really, your wife determines how many GPUs you can have LOL. I might accept it as a cost factor, but its doesn't sound like the case. Im sorry man, but thanks for being an example of how I will never let a woman control me.
Well she doesn't really determine how many GPUs I can have... my mother board does. And she is all practical and shit and says "wait until that one burns out until you get a new one" so meh.
Eventually I will get a new mobo that has more PCI-E slots, but then I have to get a new processor, ram, etc.
As for everyone who is pissing and moaning about GPUs will never have an ROI, you are wrong. I spent $80 on my 5850 and it has paid itself off already.
Word to the wise: If you are mining LTC or BTC, then you are doing it wrong!
