Either keep mom's vacuum cleaner off your circuit and you should be good.
XD Okay, well how do I know which room is part of which circuit? And how much can each circuit take? I'm guessing around 2000w because that's what my computers were drawing. Your average 15Amp 120 volt receptacle will spit out 1,800 watts maximum. It is only recommended to operate at 80% continuous load however, or 1,440. I hope you are paying your parents at least $50/month for using so much electricity! |

1.2Ghash/s from a dual 6990 system is low. You should have no problem getting 1.5Ghash/s from it using the latest drivers and SDK.  But how many watts would it be pulling then? Probably a lot more. |

Darn! I just bought a 100 trillion bill for $3 through ebay :S
It should look great in my bitcoin office!

You have a 5850 in your laptop?
That should be capabale of 350mhash+ if you tune it correctly.
I doubt you have a 5850 in a laptop however.

Whatever you do... do not just install a larger breaker without upgrading the wiring. The breaker protects wires from overloading/heat buildup from that and causing possible fires. larger breakers require larger wiring.
This... is the first thing I thought of when I ran into electrical bottlenecks. I quickly realized that this was not possible/safe/recommended by anybody. |

You need to use RBE (which is a windows only program) to edit the video card GPU's BIOS files.
I suppose you could run RBE through wine and then flash your cards using atiflash (a DOS application which can be run off of a USB stick).
Good luck.

You guys need to stop worrying about the difficulty lest you go crazy!!!

Congratulations, and yes I had noticed a void of intellectualism on the forums recently

I'd rather not support Ron Paul. While I agree with a few of his ideas, he is mostly a nutcase.
+1,000,000 All you ron paul fanatics in this forum really make me think bitcoin is doomed to fail. Ron Paul is an Americunt's "green party" as we have here in Canada. They are used to remove anybody that doesn't fit nicely into "republican" or "democrat" molds from the polls. They will never win, and anybody who votes for them is wasting a vote. |

99.9% of Bitcoin statistics are made up
Good +1  |

So really... you are trying to give YOURSELF 0.005 BTC?
The person who signs up has to sign up more people to get paid...
Talk about a fucking ponzi scheme.
Hai OP, GTFO!!!

Contact Gavin Andresen ASAP.
He has already done numerous talks and is willing to help you with the finer points iirc.

People unhappy about the default client settings are free Whoever mandated the .01 transaction fee on a complete whim is a complete and utter moron. We need the fee lowered IMMEDIATELY.
Omg, run for the github repository, make a pull request, if you can't code, pay someone to do it, if you don't feel like it don't use this client. Either way the people who code the client don't owe you shit. It's not in my interest entirely! Not at all! If they care about this project, they would certainly act in its best-interest and lower the fee! It's a matter of survival for the whole paradigm at large! One of the main benefits of Bitcoin is absolutely bastardized by this absurd fee: an adjustable fee subject to market forces from independent nodes. Not all of these nodes are ran by specialized coders. Do you have any goddamned clue why that fee exists? It's because we are still susceptible for a DDoS attack involving billions of 0.00000001 transactions in a single block. Don't bash the coders. If it wasn't for them, you wouldn't even be here. Or in other words... respect your elders you 17 year old kid. |

I have never seen a boom and bust that wasn't perpetuated by government involvement. Bitcoin is immune from such things.
 I would triple it if OP had finished high school yet... |

You do realize that we already past the 500 most powerfull computers on earth COMBINED
I don't care. This is today. My hypothesis is for 2040. If you don't understand this, i can't help you. There's a reason to mine. You profit from transaction fees and new block generation reward. IF YOU DO NOT KEEP INCREASING HASH THE NETWORK IS PRONE TO ATTACK. That's a fact. To claim inflation of bitcoins hurts the network is stupidity. It creates a reason to mine. Mining secures the network. If you remove that reason to mine, the network will be compromised. THE ONLY REASON BITCOINS ARE WORTH ANYTHING IS BECAUSE OF SECURITY. If hash does not keep rising, the network will be compromised. It's not a maybe. It's a definite. Yea, probably by the aliens from space  Listen dude. It's pretty simple. If you remove an incentive (money) to mine, you'll decrease hash. That's a fact. If you decrease hash the network is less secure. That's a fact. Why do you want less people mining? Mining should be rewarded because it secures the network. If we're decreasing the average time a block is rewarded, then mining is less profitable. We don't want that. It's stupid. There are already transaction fees in upwards of 2-3 BTC per block. By 2040... if bitcoins are still around then... I expect each bitcoin to be worth about a few million USD in today's equivalent. Sure you will be mining fewer "bitcoins", but you will be receiving greater "value" for each one you do receive until the end of time. |

Bitcoin network is pretty safe for any small and medium size potential attacker. Even largest botnets are likely no match. But if anybody thinks that the power of 12,000 high-end GPUs is completely invincible is rather delusional. Well, for started, AMD can easily match it. Somebody joked that AMD should test their cards on mining in factories.
The comparison to supercomputers is not valid (it's a nice marketing gimmick, though). Supercomputers are optimized for parallel computation and fast links while Bitcoin is a distributed network. It's much easier to create a distributed network than a single supercomputer.
Moreover, Bitcoin network must work constantly. An attacker can rent the computation time for short bursts. It is definitely cheaper than buying 12,000 GPUs. Bitcoin network is likely out of reach for anybody except governments and large companies but is still vulnerable.
Good point. Now I'm scared again  |
