bitcoinmonitor.com is showing a flurry of trading activity but no real transactions. I assume that's an error rather than the market getting into a speculative frenzy with nothing backing it up.
Or deepbit's fake block chain and false transactions

We need a bitcoin facebook app! Maybe they can integrate it into Farmville... Haha

I have enough parts/rigs arriving later today to start a pool on my own. Will finally take pics of my rigs and upload. I have some rigs offsite though, won't be able to pic those until later. Look forward to finally showing the forum what I'm packing.

Also, if you look at the pie chart, btcguild has significantly decreased and other has increased dramatically Damned pool hoppers

No, you'll spend more in electricity.

Yea, sorry, I'll turn my FPGA cluster off

I was under the assumption Windows 7 (x86/64) could only address 8 GPU Cores, Same with Ubuntu. Solaris I heard was some astronomical amount.
>mfw Solaris + GPU

Six 5830s you say? I would! 6 5830 but you can't throw them all on 1 PC 4 5830's > 6990 In sheer Mh/s Correct, but even with 4 I am having trouble getting my rig to run properly with windows. GUI will only accept 3, when there's a 4th card it wont even boot up. ANy suggestions? Use Linux.

Two separate rigs would probably have better temperatures per card making them last slightly longer? Negligible difference there.
You'd save on costs 'usually' by building a single rig, but given supply of boards/power supplies it might break even either direction.

This isn't the stock market. The Bitcoin market, and its investors, are extremely fragile. It won't take much to topple the house of cards.

This PSU can handle 2x6950 & 2x5850, assuming you don't have insane overclocks, or other hardware in this machine that is very power hungry. The PSU claims to support 80A on the combined 12V rails, whereas the GPUs need only 59A @ 12V, leaving 21A (252W) for the rest of the system.
dohoho I think there's something wrong with your calculations, but you're still probably right.

is there a space before or after the wallet address on btcguild?
No space on both sides. I implied that might be the case in my post that just followed yours. The pool operator seems to really know his PHP code though and while I am not a web developer, I have dabbled a bit in PHP for fun and know that there are library functions to fix a lot of common issues like that [trim white space, special characters and encode strings for the post and later display such that they don't cause invalid HTML. Since leading and trailing white space [and newline and/or return special characters] are often embedded in a given field, trimming both ends of the string of these common issues is pretty much a given for a web developer with any experience which clearly this guy has if he wrote the initial site in about a week [and makes changes by request quickly and easily]. The simplest solution is always easiest to try first.

So, I'm kind of dying to know Tycho, what magnitude of Bitcoins have you made from your pool? three figures, four figures, five figures?

It seems a lot of posters are misunderstanding the question. While 1x slots with extenders are fine for mining, you cannot make a number of 1x slots from one 16x slot.
Are you sure? Because I though this thing http://www.logicsupply.com/images/photos/adapters/DualPCI-BM_big.jpg will allow me to do it. Or only one slot on this raiser will work? That's a regular PCI slot...

don't be a wussy just overclock the crap out of them

Yeah, they'll do that. I hate that, but if it's not picked up till late in the day it doesn't get off the truck Friday night until after 5 PM which is 'outside of business hours'. So I'm assuming that means they don't start their business day clock till Monday @ 8 AM. I assume since you said Nashville you ordered from Newegg, that $2.99 "Rush Fee" sucks but it's worth it if you're in a rush, they'll get it out asap when you check little box.
I've checked it before and it didn't help me. From now on I'm ordering with 2 day shipping, and if they don't get it to me in 2 days, I'm pitching a fit.

"Shipped on the 3rd" could mean it was dropped off/picked up at the end of the day on the third which means it's likely sitting in a warehouse until Monday.
You should be able to see exactly where it is if you have the tracking number and track it through UPS' site.
Yeah, it's been sitting in Nashville for 2 days.

When was it shipped? Order date doesn't matter. If it was shipped on Friday, you should get it by 7th or 8th depending on where you live and what warehouse it was shipped from. Mine usually get to my house a day before the UPS estimation if it's shipped from the east coast.
It was shipped on the 3rd, but still the 8th would be an extra day. Also, from the 2nd to the 8th is 7 days. 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th See, there's 7 dates there.
