They won't, retail GPU is about 10% of their revenue (90% is from OEM, majority of people buy their PC from big brand PC makers like HP/Dell).
Out of the 10% retail GPU, maybe 20-30% is bought by bitcoin miners.

eptiv's form is really confusing. I like btcrow better

there are a variety of other charting sites, you don't need to use the TH charts.

Just of note, for mining those cards are terrible MHash/$. If you are getting them for gaming though, more power to ya.
can you explain why? just currious... the 6850 is $80 more expensive than a normal double slot one. the 6990 is $170 more expensive than a normal one. (though it is a watercooled unit, which is worth something). |

you share part of the blame though, for using same password everywhere. Stop doing it.

In the long run, mining difficulty will approach the average cost of electricity. People who have "paid off" mining rigs will continue to mine regardless of the difficulty, as long as they can profit after electricity cost.

I bought some btc, am hoping to sell for a higher price; I guess that makes me a speculator. If the price stays stable for a long period I will use my btc to buy something. Maybe a book, isn't somebody here taking btc for amazon GCs?
Why trade for gift card when you can just trade your BTC for cash. amazon GC mostly sell for same amount in cash on ebay, heck I even sold a $25 amazon GC for $25.20 in one ebay auction, and the guy paid me, go figure. |

Their Tokyo office is a VIRTUAL OFFICE, you would find no one. No one knows where they really are.

I don't know where you guys are getting this info from that the 5000 series give better hash rates as they don't. The equivalent 6000 series cards gives a couple of more Mh/s.
In terms of efficiency they are, 6970 is larger and uses more power than a 5870 and still the 5870 can outperform it, show me a 6970 pulling 445MH/s at 1ghz core like the 5870 does. My stock sapphire 6970 get 420 MH/s, I haven't OCed them since they are call crammed together, I'm still waiting on riser cables from HongKong. |

I have 3M+ shares mined on btcguild, yet Blocks Found: 0
So if it were not for pools, my 4 GH/s would have produced nothing for me so far if I mined solo.

namecoin will never be worldwide accepted or popular, it'll be just an obscure experiment that almost no one cares about and no one supports, like OpenNIC (which is almost free and has been operating for 10 years)
The entire world is not going to abandon ICANN regulation just to be able to open a .bit address. As long as ICANN doesn't support alternative DNS, it'll never be popular

I dont see the draw for these... 2 5870's will give you the same/similar Mh for about 450 bucks
I'm thinking 6870's are the best buy at the moment. You can score them for $189 on sale and get ~300 Mhash/sec. or just get 5830s which are widely available at around $160(no rebate/sale needed) and can also easily do 300 MH/s, or wait for newegg to get some in stock at $109 |

chill dude, could be a hosting provider outage, just be patient.
An outage at a competent hosting provider is incredibly rare. Possible, but much more likely is a problem with the site itself. Site operator took it down, or a DDOS. competent hosting provider IS rare, and usually they charge an arm and a leg. For the rest of us, we go for cheap hosting with acceptable amount of outage. |

The weight of the package can be anything the seller puts on the label, doesn't prove anything.
The clearcoin way I think is currently the most superior method for escrow, I think I'd even prefer it over the paypal "seller protection". Because the more I think about it, the more I like it (even though I'm almost always the seller). There's almost no possibility of fraud for any buyer and seller.
* as a seller, you have to ship the real product in a satisfactory manner to the buyer, or else the buyer won't release the coins
* as a buyer, you have zero incentive to screw over the seller because you are not getting your money back either way, and the seller has your name and address, you wouldn't really want to piss the seller off especially if it's a big-ticket item.
* if there's a dispute over the product description/quality, then both the buyer and the seller has an incentive to resolve it fairly, because the buyer want a good/working product, the seller want to get their money, there's no incentive for either party to screw over the other party.

7xxx will perform similar to 58xx and 6xxx in terms of hashing, it'll be terrible for mining due to its "newness" and price will be pretty high. 58xx is still the best deal if you could find any at a good price point.

why bother with hyper-v, just run an un-activated win7, completely legal and fully functional for mining purpose.
