It's not the first time we've had articles about Bitcoin, but this seems to be a step up in terms of length and quality. The overall tone seems to be positive but only mildly so - an unenthusiastic acknowledgement that the thing has potential in spite of the rough start.
Would you be so kind as to provide some kind of better-than-google translation for us English speakers? |

Of course I did.  I'm wondering if I should set up a mini-pool and hope for a freshly minted 50 BTC block or two to keep as collectibles, or just line Pirate's pockets. Hmmmm. If you are going to setup a pool for yourself, talk with Graet from ozco.in about ecoinpool. Yeah, I have been wanting to set up my own ecoinpool for a while now. Now I have an excuse to play with it. |

In the past I would have asked whether we can point them at our own bithopper, but even that is unlikely to be worth much more than using GPUMAX these days. Assuming GPUMAX starts public work soon. |

Yeah but he's talking about 50W per card. Do the stock fans really consume that much power? I have a full size box fan that doesn't even use that much. It isn't the fans, it's because of the GPU die leakage at high temperature. The phenomenon is much more pronounced in smaller architectures such as 28nm. |

Hmm.. interesting. Kinda hard to believe tho.
Would you mind doing some testing, by shutting down the fans on your radiator and allow the water temp to go up, and see if there is indeed a tangible impact on power consumption?
I think its more likely you accidentally changed something else, say, something that lowered CPU usage, but it would be worth checking.
Lucky for you I have an even better solution. I have an in-line valve on my water-cooling loop to stop the inbound flow on my reservoir so I can drain the loop. The power usage jumps more than 100W between 55C and 90C when I close that valve. A tiny bit is due to the pumps drawing more power, but the majority of it is definitely the graphics cards. What would be cool is if you could slow down the fans instead, which would allow a somewhat gradual rise in temperature. While doing that, monitor the temp and power consumption, and see if you can find a point at which the efficiency falls off a cliff, or whether it is linear. It would be nice to know that at (say) 82 degrees, the efficiency suddenly tanks, so we can tell people to always remain under 80, or something like that. |

yes,
we are both Bruce Willis
Mark you are hereby ignored, it is to bad you have to resort to smear tactics but I provided that service to you and I have plenty of satisfied customers for all the physical items, bitcoins, and other services I offer.
Why don't both of you gain a little legitimacy by not using a built-in forum default avatar? I wish they weren't even available. Why don't you gain a little legitimacy by not using a built-in forum default avatar? I'm not using a built in avatar, fool. It is a design that I created myself. |

No idea what FYPFY means. "Fuck you pussy, fuck you"?
Quoted for comedy gold. It means Fixed Your Post For You. |

The plural form of "say" is "say"?
Correct. "A and B say hi" is the plural form, and "A says hi" is the singular form. Additionally, "I say hi" is the correct singular form when using "I", and "We say hi" is the plural form when using "we". It gets a bit confusing sometimes. |

Theres NOTHING in existance that allowes me to easily transfer Visa to BTC?
NOTHING?
I can't believe it
Believe it, son. The --only-- exception is BitcoinNordic, which only works in like 3 countries, none of which is the USA. In case you weren't aware, credit cards are trivially easy to charge back, causing massive fraud issues for anyone that dares to accept cards for bitcoins. |

You'll want to make sure to grab an i7 with at least 32GB of ram
And make sure the RAM is ECC; that's essential. Not only that, but you need a linear power supply for stability, and dual hex cores for speed. |

What is that?
+1, I wanna ask them about their PSU. |

I currently only have a paypal account to buy bitch botcins.
if anyone interest.
I can transfer half,
after I received the half,
we can finish the entire business.
Sorry for the inconvenience
but i really need bitcoins.
Thanks
Regards
We can start at smaller amounts for trust issues. I need 150 btc in total.
I have no problem trading with different venders
cheers
The answer is no. Sorry.  |

At first, I was going to say obvious troll thread is obvious, but then I see that the company is actually listed on GLBSE. Now all I have to say is lol.

Let's talk interface. What's needed, what's considered redundant, and what's missing?
For me, miner.php actually does most of what's needed quite well, aside from saving the configuration and some of the more advanced features in other projects (like email notifications). I don't even use the command line interface once it's started, unless troubleshooting - even then, dumping to a log is easier. So is the text interface even necessary anymore? Well yeah, if you don't want to run a php interpreter, a web server, and a browser... |

Kano doesn't speak for this project. I'm open to suggestions. To be honest I was hoping by now one of the API front ends that people had coded could have replaced this ageing text based interface, but they're all not quite as comprehensive, and tend to need other software to work and so on, so I'm not going to include any of them (yet).

A lot of these were added initially simply because no one had ever offered so much information or features before, and as I added things to cgminer, I added the information to the display. Largely, the way people mine and the issues have changed. However, I don't want cgminer to only be suitable to miners with heaps of hardware. I still want it accessible to the miner with only one GPU that is mining. Yes, the above is more suited to a debug output, IMHO. If I were to put it on a diet, I would start by deleting the Block: display. Additionally, the block numbers at the bottom could be eliminated. |

I thought the limit in the PCI spec was 19 cm due to latency issues  How long is the total setup and is the card performing worse in terms of MHash/s ? Thanks ! It probably is longer than spec, but that doesn't apply to the low bandwidth needs of bitcoin mining. It is overclocked and going just as fast as the other 5 cards in the same rig. |

Bitcoins are real money. If you don't think so, then buzz off and troll some other forum. |
