My first thought was immediately PSU related. Then you say you already tried another PSU. Have you tried resetting BIOS back to full factory defaults?

I bought a motherboard that supports using the built in Sandy Bridge GPU in parallel with added PCI-E GPU's....just in case I would ever want to use that extra GPU + monitor output. Well, if someone can get it mining, let me know! Even 25MH/s is a cool little boost.

GLBSE is indeed becoming a major player in the Bitcoin world.
Yes, even I have started to stray away from playing forex style on Bitcoinica, Gox and look at GLBSE and MPOE as investing options. In fact, I just purchased 7 Bitbond shares  In the beginning GLBSE looked like a fun toy to me, now it has some history behind it and I've done enough research I think I'll play too. |

Fractional reserve banking allows the market to change the money supply, allowing supply to meet demand. Surely that's a good thing.
Sure, unless everyone demands their money at the same time. Then the supply side kinda falls flat on its face.  Exactly. But if you want to take out a loan for a $20,000 car, magically they can make that happen without a problem. Or say you want to buy a $750,000 home - hey no problem, here you go! They just make fake money appear in the system. The videos that show how that work made my jaw drop. |

Not in my experience. Same exact performance as Windows 7.

bronan, I can confirm your memory speed theories. My 7970 is unstable if I set the memory slower than stock. My rig crashed 5 times a day until I experimented with putting the memory at the stock speed. The rule of -150MHz from core clock doesn't apply to this card. Wish it was like my 5830's where I can set the memclocks at 300.

I made a delivery of barn wood the end of last week to Indiana and purchased wood to bring back to Illinois. The client I sold to, cut me a check for $5K drawn from BoA. I had ample cash on me to complete my intended purchase, but opt to cash the check at BoA, opposed to bringing it back to Illinois and depositing it into my account (different bank). I was not able to cash the full amount. I received $2,500 in cash and a cashiers check for the other half. I asked the manager why, and her reply shocked me. First, I didn't have an account with BoA. Understandable. Second, and you're not going to believe this, she told me they didn't have enough funds on hand to cash such a large check. In fact, she said that if I did have an account at BoA, I would have had to call in a couple days prior to inform them that I was bringing in such a big check so that they would have the funds readily available (paraphrased!). This was on a Friday when people normally get their paychecks and cash them and I was at the bank well before noon. I've thought about that incident the whole trip back home, with the intention of relaying that event to this community. I recon this thread is as good as any.

Reminds me of all the videos I have watched that opened my eyes to the reality of fractional reserve banking, and the ultimate conclusion that debt creates "money". The videos go over how banks are just there to create debt, which in turn just adds virtual zeros to the total (virtual) money supply. I know this isn't news to you, but man it's just a hilarious joke they are playing on us, isn't it? It almost doesn't surprise me that you asked a bank for money, and they literally didn't have any. |

Subscribed. Looks like a great idea.

I always miss the big dips and rallys by a day. I get tired of the sideways action, so I pull out of a moderately sized position (for me) and wait to make another move. Then of course, like clockwork, the market makes a big move. I've recently decided to try and day trade the 1.5% "noise" that happens all day. You know, how the bots seem to trade back and forth tiny amounts, just enough to cover the Gox fee for a buy and sell. Drives me crazy, but if you can't beat em, join em.

Oh you gotta be shitting me. I just reversed my position..in the other direction. Well, since it's wire deposits only, lets hope the guys who do big wire deposits aren't going to eff the price up too much.

The volume was more impressive to me than the price change. When the volume is a couple hundred BTC per hour and then all of a sudden a massive 15k dump happens, it's news.

15K BTC sold from ~$5.14 to ~$4.99.
As I'm posting, the spread is so big that it actually bounced back up to $5.14 afterwards.

Bookmarked this thread when it was just two pages. Now it's nine... Anyone care to summarize what happened?
Confirmed troll? Did he an hero? Cyber police?
Cliffs: Atlas posts a faux suicide note for attention Some people laugh, some people take it serious and call police Police contact Atlas and/or family members and they say he is OK Atlas claims alias "Jon" was hacked Atlas successfully avoids emergency services bills People can now continue to make fun of Atlas' social problems, which I love to see because he is one sick kid ... Profit! |

Silly me. Here I am looking at CCP to take BTC directly for subscriptions, when you guys are already privately selling PLEX for BTC. It would still be cool if CCP was the first game company to do this.

From what I was able to gather while loosely following what's going on ingame it's actually not that rosy right now with prices of minerals skyrocketing. It's true I don't know what the reason behind it is and it could very well be the market pricing in changes in the upcoming expansion but it might also be due to ISK inflation due to changes from the last expansion. Regardless I'm convinced the players would be much better off if they were able to deal in a limited and scarce currency instead.
Who cares if the price of minerals skyrocket. If that's the natural direction of the market, then that's the natural direction. People may be pissing and moaning, but that doesn't mean the market is broken. People piss and moan when the BTC market falls 5% too. |

The police called to notify me that they made contact with the subject. He claims that his account was hacked. Case closed.
Good excuse not to pay the bill for emergency services. |
