I wouldn't be surprised if it were so. In my country (Poland) power company workers also get some free electricity (AFAIK they still have to pay but they get it super-cheap).

You can always edit / flash a different BIOS with RBE.

Only if you are monitoring the voltage and using another tool which does the same (GPU-Z, Everest).

AFAIK it only applies to HD5000's VRMs

I have some steam cd-keys for sale, so far for these games:
 
Modern Warfare 3 - 6.5 BTC
Civilization V
Dead Island - 4.5 BTC
Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings - 4.8 BTC
Minecraft - 2.7 BTC
Humble Frozen Bundle (steam key) - 0.8 BTC
Deus Ex: Human Revolution

They are all region free.

However I also have cd-keys for MW3 and Dead Island destined for the Russian market - if you are interested and are familiar on how to activate them PM me - MW3 3.5 BTC and Dead Island 3 BTC.

Sending immediately after 1 confirmation, prices at current mtgox rates.
If I consider you a trustworthy member from this forum (lots of trades, etc.) I can send the key first before receiving payment.

So far did business on this forum with Goat, shakaru, Trini8ed and LeFBI.

PM me if you are interested and I'll give you a BTC address to send to, you can also ask any questions you have in this thread.

MORE GAMES TO COME

What 750 watt PSU is it?

What else do you run on it (3 HD5970s will be too much)?

May I ask why it is imperative for the cadidate to be UK-based?

Apart from that - I would be fit for the job (ok, I'm also an amateur developer:P).

You sure?
Don't remember it myself.

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Address :

So there's no way to make use of all GPUs simulatenously?
Or maybe I could be running 3 instances of oclvanitygen each for each GPU to increase the probability of finding an address and it's priv key? Would that be the same?

Hi,

I haven't updated my drivers since may - I have ATi 11.5 drivers and v2.3 ATi Stream SDK, there's the CPU bug and I need to use dummy plugs because I run my miners on Win7_64 Pro.

From which driver version there's no more need for dummy plugs?

Which versions don't have the CPU bug?

Which version is the fastest and most stable (=what also matters is not necessarily the total hashing power but the number of shares - sometimes O/C (even if the GPU doesn't hang or render stales) may even decrease the number of submitted shares despite the increase of total hashing power)?

Hello everyone, I have a few (noob) questions

- Anyone know how to use all GPUs for oclvanitygen?
And why if I select GPU #2,for ex.:

oclvanitygen -r -d=2 123

Only my primary GPU (GPU #0) will be used? In my case this is a slower GPU.

- Why with -r only the CPU can be used (vanitygen prints "WARNING: Using CPU pattern matcher")?

- Are there any better/faster address generators out there?

- Why I can only generate addresses starting with "1"? Aren't there anymore addresses left starting with "3"?

- Why am I getting higher speeds without "-r" on CPU?
Without: ~350kkeys/sec
With: ~75kkeys/sec
Isn't it supposed to be the other way around (expression can be placed anywhere in the address instead just at the beginning)? Or am I getting something wrong?

- I have a Q9300 undervolted to 0.975V and underclocked to 2GHz to save power (stock 2.5GHz and sth like 1.1 or 1.2Vcore), before mining this used to be primarily a gaming rig, and I had this CPU running @ 3.5GHz and 1.32Vcore, what speed can I expect if I decide to O/C it back to 3.5GHz? I think it'll increase linearly but not sure and will probably do it unless I find a way to generate addresses with the "-r" option.

- Any way to generate shorter addresses (shortest as possible, 25 base58 chars?)

Thanks.

P-l-e-a-s-e BE careful with them as they haven't been entirely honest with everyone so as not to get scammed again.

Personally I would wait till at least a few other forum members report everything is fine, but even then - standard 6 month warranty doesn't sound too good.

P.S. sent you an e-mail.

I have a few Deus Ex: HR's, sent you a PM.

I don't know where else to post either.

I don't know why you are getting scammed so often, a lot of it via PayPal, and yet you continue to use it.

I don't know if what you are saying is true or not - because you do not sound convincing.

I hope what you are saying is truth, because I am really counting on getting my $200 back (waiting since October), if you're a scammer this will be harder (if possible at all).

If this is true then all I can do is wish you good luck - and remember that the quicker you get over it and start acting the better it will be for you.

I also had and have problems of my own (even tried suicide in the past but failed to succeed (not recommended)), but I never write about them on public forums - it won't help.

Hoping to get my money back,
Good luck,
Malevolent

1. Better state your price in USD or EUR (better EUR 'cause I'm also from EU) b/c BTC is too volatile now. If you mean 200 BTC @ 3.9 USD (mtgox rate at time of writing this post), then I'm not interested.
2. Ofc pictures with your nickname and date handwritten pls.
3. Have you got warranty on them? When and where were they bought?

You could sell your 6970 and get a 5970+5850 (or 5830 at least)

You could also underclock and undervolt your CPU to 1 GHz or less... unless you ain't only mining with it

Stay away from Codegen, you risk frying some or even all of you components, also avoid PSUs from this list (it is not complete):

Akyga, Altis, Aspire, Aton, Bestec, Coba, Codegen, ColorSit, COMPAQ, Computer, Deer, Eurocase, Everpower, Feel, Fever, Four Star, Gembird, Gigabajt, Hawk, Hec, Impet, i-box, Incore, Levicom, Linkword, L&C, Logic, LOGISYS, Megabajt, Mercury, Metropilis, Mustang, Newton Power, Platin Power, Power Color, Powercomp, Power Man, Procomp, Octigen, QTECHNOLOGY, Q-tec, RAIDMAX, Rubikon, Ropla, Sansun, SilenX, Sun Pro, Suntek, Take Me, Task, TE, Tracer, Tronje, Ultra Media, V Power, Win, Xilence, XION, X-Power, 2N

also from this list:
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/299096-10-blacklist

if you are unsure, google for reviews, jonnyguru.com is a good resource of extensive PSU reviews/tests

these are examples of good PSU brands:

Amacrox, Antec, Astec, be quiet, Chieftec, CoolerMaster, Corsair, Delta, Enermax, Enlight, OCZ, PCPower&Cooling, Pentagram, Seasonic, Silver Power, Tacens, Tagan, Topower, Yesico, Zalman

but there are worse lines from time to time so always do some google search

Dont want to go on too much details about the differences between cheap and expensive ones but the chinese crap increases your chances of frying one or more components (inadequate or no protection against overcurrent for example), not to mention increased power bills because cheap PSUs will be very inefficient (only look out for PSUs that are at least >80% efficient)

For those 3 GPUs I'd recommend +650W PSU

I am sorry to say this, but now it is you who sounds like a 14-year old... with an inferiority complex.


True
Can you predict btc prices too?
Nope.
6870 is 10% faster than 5850 (in games, as you started talking about games, for sha256 5850 ofc wins)
5770=6770 (same chip)
5770 slightly slower than/same as 4870
5770 is 40% slower than 6870

Let's wait and see. The price will be most important if reduced wattage is to be the main change over 5xxx

Yeah, you should?
But we would really need someone more competent to comment on this.

Depends on the country.
For example in Poland I have to pay 2% tax upon registering a second hand car (2% of the price paid for that second hand car, but if the price is considered too low by the Revenue Service they will ask for 2% of the car's market value, same goes for real estate, etc. but that's off topic). Most companies, however, are exempt from this tax.

I think that only the BTC exchanges should be paying taxes from profits they make from exchange fees.
As for BTC buyers - tax paid from capital gains?


In all probability the VAT tax is already included in those .99 cents.
