stuff
Please rant in the correct thread, not this one. Also, no matter how much you hate someone, STOP FOLLOWING THEM AROUND THE FORUM, because all that does is fuck up everyone else's threads. Thank you. Who said i'm following him around? I replied to Kano who seems to disagree with scammer tag. Thats a rant? Thanks for stating the obvious, which is off topic. Sure as hell Kano knows this. The fact that you quote my post as a rant is laughable. Feel so good huh?

Well - completely off topic - but since it seems to have come up all over the forum ... If all the ranting that's been going on in the forum about it is correct, he's not a scammer. I don't know who came up with that tag for him, but they really need to go read a dictionary. Of course I agree that he should return the BTC, but sorry, English is just that, English. And not returning money someone gave you buy THEIR own fault is not a scam. He may be a liar if he said he would return it, but changed his mind. His actions may be reprehensible to most people, yes, but a scam? No. The element that would classify it as a scam would be to not put the advertising he said he would in his sig. However, that's the forum mods who have turned it into a scam, not him. I will add, anyone who says otherwise, please point out where I'm wrong or have misunderstood the situation. There is a very small line between scamming and what he does. I do believe given an opportunity, he will just be one easily. To me, they're all the same shiet, different pile. Such shameless POS should rot in hell.

I don't see why that idea would be expensive though. It seems like something that could be done for $20, and perform as well or better than a large plate exchanger. The biggest downside is the floor space and low SAF.
Copper loops, finding a hot water heater in decent shape, rigging up some water tight seals. I mean remember this isn't a science experiment. It is the water my family drinks. It doesn't seem worth it. Like I said it would provide marginally more recovered energy but hacking around with drinking water isn't my idea of a good ROI%. I also don't think you are going to find all the parts, supplies, connectors, and tools for $20 but even if it is was $0.00 I don't think messing around with drinking water is a good idea. I think you are missing the point on the amount of water. 2 ft, 20ft, 20,000ft it doesn't really matter how much energy is in the loop. We aren't storing it for on demand use. That energy will be dumped out of the loop at the same rate regardless of how big the loop is. Your points are valid, it would be significantly more work to ensure it was built well and safe. As for the amount of water, to efficiently transfer the heat you need a large amount of surface area. To have a large surface area without excessive restriction, you'd need a large volume. That requires more water with more stored energy. I'd actually be very interested in your calculations for the plate heat exchanger you looked at, and what the stats are for your system in terms of flow rate and head pressure, temperatures and such. With 6kW, you have a lot of leeway for heating water, but looking at my own supply even in the summer the incoming cold supply is around 10C. Getting it to 30C requires a lot of power. Its not about getting it to 30c. But it's sure as hell higher than 10c. Not much energy saved but free is better. Beside, i'm doing it to help with the heat being dumped in the house during hot summer days. Now, i'm not sure how well it work. I hoped high untill i saw ciuciu's pic. LOL Any responsible human being wouldnt waste water like that. Clean water isnt cheap. Its infact more expensive than gasoline where i am.

Come on, we all know ATMEL is not the FPGA chip that does the hashings but just a side ASIC used for USB or something ...
Just Shut the fck up and get out of this forum. Loser

Is it still possible to order them? I can do a bulk order as well, PM me

I guess what I'm saying is that we are seeing people spend tens of thousands of dollars on FPGA mining setups. What I contend is that if you were to buy 7300 BTC for about $37,000 today, you will be able to sell 10 BTC per day for the next two years and make more money than if you were to buy $37,000 worth of FPGA-based mining equipment and sell whatever you mine every day over the course of the same two years.
I think this point highlights the main issue in this thread. There is not a BTC or mining shortage...there is a USD shortage. Simple economics would infer that bitcoins are thus cheap against USD. Shortage only comes in if there is a demand for it. Price is all about supply and demand.

Yes, flash video hard sets the clock rate at some bizarre value. Flash is one of the few technologies with even more fail than AMD drivers.
I cant agree more. Adobe is trying hard to build their empire.

Good now we're on the same page. Now you understand why its wrong to say " negative and positive pressure" on either side of the waterblock.
The poster i originally responded to already clarified his loop has non full reservoir. As for "complex equation" you can bet i dont need it.
Ah ok. I thought the debate was about negative pressure in the whole system o.o It was, i assumed the system without reservoir. However, mr degree flasher came in with a silly talk. If you want to create a negative sealed system, you have to heat up the liquid (say 50c) prior sealing. The inline pump inside the loop cant pressurize the loop itself.

Hi, I have a similar setup, with 12 cards (9 5970 and 4 5870) working flowlessly for about 1 year. The diferrence is that I ran them in series. I'm using a Koolance heat exchanger connected to the cold water line. Will soon add 5 more cards.
Just to clarify Ciuciu, is your exchanger right b4 the water heater? (preheating) or you just use cold line to cool the loop?

Amazing temp ! Now i'm tempted to do mine. With multiple exchangers, i cant wait to see how it works out. I use no radiator. Gotcha. What do you use for the radiator? The cards are in series. I have only one heat exchanger. http://koolance.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=54_119&product_id=944Hi, I have a similar setup, with 12 cards (9 5970 and 4 5870) working flowlessly for about 1 year.

Running those plate exchangers in series? or the GPU block? Because the former would ABSOLUTELY kill the pressure. I dont think thats good for the water heater at all. I'm cheap so i will try to make those exchanger myselft.. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) yeah i know. Its the same parallel channels design. But i'm thinking of having at least 5 of them in parallel loops.
