In motherboard terms, 6 months to a year is an eternity.  There's plenty of boards that'll take 4 double slot PCI-E cards, but that's the limit to a normal ATX board.  My P8B-WS will take 4 double slot cards, and it's marketed as a workstation/server board.  By the Haswell-E might have come along, with enough PCI-E lanes to cope.

Beyond that, you're in to EATX which aren't cheap.  Then you're looking at 4U cases at least, and probably 2KW PSU.  It's all going to be big money, and by then probably pointless due to difficulty (unless BTC goes up to $200 or more).

Besides, my understanding was that the Monarchs were still run off a USB, and the cards were only the PCI-E form factor for ease of mounting.  Am I wrong?  If that's the case, then any case with lots of slots and a miniITX (or even NUC) motherboard would be more than sufficient.

11 BE sticks and a few GPUs.  About 8GH.  Small time stuff.  I mostly mine on P2Pool, but BitMinter is my backup pool.

Why are you using 0.6.2?  Everyone else is using 0.8.3.  

Back up your wallet.dat, wipe the old 0.6.2 install (including the stuff in your user folder), install 0.8.3.  Copy the wallet.dat in, and it'll sync up for you.

Yes, of course it will.  As the client syncs, transactions will come in the order they were transmitted to the network.

Any 0.x release of any software is generally a beta.  As the poster above says, not only is the Bitcoin client in beta, the whole Bitcoin system is beta.

Yeah, £44 FFS.    Hope they work better than the £22 TekNet heap of junk.

Glad to see the miners are dispatched, can't wait. 

Lots of Cloudflare 522 errors. 

What was the fuss anyway?  Why does it matter where the node is?

Same here.  Though my TekNet 10-port is a bit dodgy, so I've ordered an Anker.  The TekNet looked like it was soldered by a 4 year old chinese kid in a sweatshop, using a lump of metal heated in a fire, during an earthquake.  Horrible soldering, I'm amazed it worked at all.

It's actually less efficient when the sun is blazing directly on it, than it is on a bright and cloudy day. 

With direct sunlight the panels heat up too much and lose efficiency. 

Today there's a light covering of white cloud, and the panels on both sides of the house are producing quite a bit of power (close to 4kW).  It's this brightness without direct sunlight that makes it possible to have the panels on the north side of the house as well as the south side.

You still haven't figured out how to search, then?  Hint: I posted the solution to this, so maybe searching for posts made by me would be a good idea?

No, seriously, what the f*** are you talking about?   Z77?  Mineral oil?    

You're making no sense at all.

It's not really, it's only 20 panels.  £10k investment, ROI thanks to government payback in less than 4 years.  

Kinda looks similar to this, but I have the same on the other side of the roof (pic from the installer's web site).  Plus my house doesn't look anywhere near as shitty.

I intended helping with the beta, but I never got my Hackintosh working properly. 

But, good news is I just ordered a MacBook Pro, which should be here tomorrow.  I'll certainly be trying out Asteroid with some Block Erupters as soon as I can.

Any updates?  Need miners! 

eve, is that you? 

Cool, that's me one slot nearer getting my 7GH miner shipped.   

What are you talking about? 

YADSR.
