Darklore is in your neck on the woods (Seattle area). See if he can help you out.

What interesting colors and fonts. I've never seen a website like that before  |

I'm not trying to be a dick, Dalkore, but a friend oversee an operation in the Midwest while you live in Seattle doesn't make any sense. Location: Seattle, Washington USA I'm sure there's a myriad of buildings available on the cheap where you're located. Having someone dependable is key. If you set up your infrastructure right with the right people, it could be anywhere. The midwest location was an idea and I am still acquiring the property. Cheap maybe different for us, this is a sweetheart deal. So, it's safe to assume you're picking up the property regardless? I'm in Sandwich, IL, and not asking exactly where the building is located, but approximately how far do you think it's away from my location? Which direction is not important either. Only asking cause I'm curious and wanted to increase my post count before I hit the hay and dream about (insert farm animal(s) here). I don't think you should be dreaming about inserting things into farm animals.  |

Now they damn better start shipping within couple of months  Heck yeah! If BFL begins delivery in a couple months it'll be an even year from order date to delivery for some of those early investors. Now that's pro crastination. |

Website down again. Shows 0 hash and no connection on all miners for over 30 minutes. I can handle it for a day or 2 but after receiving over 400 idle miner notifications in last 24 hours I don't know...

I've got a 0 fee 0/confirmation transaction stuck atm.. didn't even mean to send it for zero fee, but it tried to charge me 0.02 to send about 1BTC which I thought was ridiculous so I went to manually set it lower and accidently sent for zero. I tried importing the key to a new wallet and putting a small tx fee to fix it, but it's still stuck  My problem is that it's an address with a lot of small inputs, so it's about a 2kb transaction to send it which is what caused the 0.02 fee in the first place. Really fucking stupid.. I'm not paying a 2% fee to send something, if I wanted to do that, I'd use paypal. Well it comes down to sustaining an economy. Of course most miners currently care about the subsidy but the future bitcoin growth will only occur through fees.m. If you want to avoid your problem, make 2 wallets. Use an online wallet to collect the little crap (so there's little risk if you lose it) and keep your big transactions on your own system. |

Are we to the point yet where a small enough percentage of owed BTC is enough to pay off the lawyers/investigators? If not, when will that be? $1000/BTC?
Well my paltry 42BTC is over $4k. I think $100k to $200k should get a respectable legal firm to get the ball rolling on this matter. As I said above I'll chip in up to 25% of my loss ahead of time into a fund (that would be $1k just from me). If the bigger "losers" chip in we'll easily have enough to make sure the King goes down. |

It would be pointless listing the 7950s that can be undervolted for 2 reasons:
1) Pretty much only the original versions of most 7950s can be undervolted. I have 4 MSI 7950s with the 8/6 connectors instead of the newer 6/6 pin. The newer ones are locked. Same with Gigabyte and XFX and Sapphire. I assume Diamond, Powercolor, and any other brand would be the same. The part numbers are usually the same between older and newer ones.
2) The only decent place to find older ones would be eBay (or here) and by the time you get them in your hands difficulty will have gone up 50%.
The days of GPU mining are nearing an end. If you have cards then mine away. It makes no point buying new or even used cards for mining now unless you need them for gaming also.

So let me get this straight... it's impossible to have a closed case with 4 gpu's without watercooling ?
Nobody has been able to do this even with those fancy cases ?
Hmmm. Since an open, noisy case is simply not an option for me ( I can't have one at home or at my friends office ... ) I guess I'll have to look into watercooling.
You're going to be pulling about 800 Watts at the wall even with an undervolt. That's like running an 800W space heater - you think you can run 800W with computer components with just air cooling inside a case? You need to go watercooling if you want it quiet. Now if your purpose is to hash and be quiet then a couple of FPGA would to the same work quietly and you don't need to invest in expensive water blocks. |

And the plot thickens..
Where is Luke right now? Australia. Haha, oh man that made me laugh real good. Thanks for that humor!! |

No thank you. With 350BTC I'd rather invest in real estate.

Newegg has 7970's listed right now for $369 with a $30 rebate...
I'll give you $300!
So annoying. In the UK our 7970s cost £300, and our elec the same as you but in £.... I hear ya - we are getting screwed in all directions. Uh, the Diamond 7970 is $420 USD on Newegg. I live like 5 miles from Newegg. It would cost me $458 dollars after CA Nazi tax, which coincidentally is just a tad more than £300. Plus my electricity in CA is more than yours I assure you  And my sales tax will be going up again in 3 months! |

Dude come on, flipping Avalons? Just so everybody knows he offered me a killer deal on that Batch 1 he just bought - only 750 BTC. 20k/90 = 222 BTC. Flipping in 2 days for 750? I would have bought it but I only have 749.93 BTC  Yifu would be so proud |

Yeah way too many GPU Miners on here to sell. Sold them on Anandtech and HardForums - 17 games in 6 hours  |

I'm a moron, but I'll ask this anyway:
What is the purpose of you mining? Are you doing it to learn about how cryptocurrencies are mined and get firsthand experience? Are you doing it to make money?
If it is because of the first reason then continue on with your quest. If it is to make a profit then by the time you get your eq and figure out how to keep it stable then BTC mining will not be profitable. LTC may be if everybody doesn't switch over to it but just looking at the 5x difficulty increase since last month I doubt it.

Pure fake. Say bye-bye to your btc if you did actually fall for this.....
Here. Is a video they posted testing my machine.... http://youtu.be/aPeen7AJA-oEver eat crow? Ill buy u a fork!! So that box with the fans is cooking crow inside? Suggestion - lay off the amphetamines and try using a tripod. I'm sacred to think what the video would have looked like with image stabilization off. |

Well I bought a 1500gh/s rig and a 60gh/s rig from them.... No risk no reward man.... And I bought a PrimeAsic 80gh/s machine and 2 Avalon ASICs 85gh/s The big announcement is they are testing and tho they hash at the proper hash rate the power consumption is higher than they state which I believe they are fixing. You guys should be a little more patience as I'm sure they mentioned almost posting a video of the test and said they will this weekend. This is a tough market to be in and it's gonna work. Just don't be the last to buy and be left on an island talking to a volleyball once they prove to work. Hey, everyone doubted Abalon ASIC from the start. Had you not and bought 30 of them for 1200 you would be dancing around naked. But hey they cost $8k now.. Get ready, the crow is cooking and almost ready to eat. 1.810TH/S of Mining soon... What shall I buy? Hmmmmmmm maybe a unicorn to go next to the table with my machines?  I've talked to patients on the psych ward with 5150s who made more sense. I'm going to guess paint chips as a kid  |

For the next 6 months electricity costs will be more or less irrelevant. I have free power too but note this:
1) The video cards will lose more in resale value than they will be able to mine per day
2) People with high energy use Avalon rigs don't even bother looking at the power use since they have BTC coming in like crazy. People with ASIC units will therefor not want to relocate their precious machines at the expense of unit downtime.
3) In 6 months when 66GH delivers 1BTC or less per day it may be reasonable to find cheaper power.
I still have about 40 cards left (had almost 200) and will be listing the 6870/6950s before they become near impossible to sell. Selling a 6870 for $80 and buying 0.8 BTC is a lot easier than having it mine for 7 months (this will be the case after Avalon Batch 2 and ASICMiner wave 2).

Best software - while not everybody will agree CGminer is probably the most commonly used software. Guiminer is good if you don't have a clue how to get to DOS Prompt or work linux.
Best pool - again very subjective or everybody would be on only 1 of 3 pools. Look at the Mining Pools subforum, the stick at the top lists the pools. BTCGuild is the biggest and is pretty easy to use. Other guilds have less fees and other nice features but may not be as reliable.
