OK. Now that the product seems to be genuine I have some questions for you all :
-what do you think will happen with the rest of the network ? Will all GPU miners cease to be profitable like the CPU miners ? What about free elec people ?
-has all the FPGA competition been wiped out with this weapon ?
-what will an ASIC do to the bitcoin network ?
-could this still be a long con and how can we see the warning signs in that case ?
Discuss !
Point 1: The network may see a little hash rate. Sure, it'll enable some people to start up mining again who originally quit because they were on the wrong side of the break-even point. But a 5970 can do 550 MH/s @ 97W (over system idle anyway), so another 300 MH/s at 17W less isn't going to be a huge game-changer. It's not like when everybody else was chugging along with 20 KH/s and then GPUs came along putting down a few GH/s on a single rig.

Ok, I think it might work then since my tummy is the only place that really has any excess fat.

I'm interested in the size zero pill. Will it burn off fat around my tummy?

Gosh, if only there were some kind of digital currency that you could buy that wouldn't be subjected to all those conversion fees, and that could be transferred to someone in Europe nearly instantly. That would be neat.

I don't get it. Why would a BFL unit have $0 resale value?

Ok important stuff 1st: max OC @stock volts so far w/ cgminer: -I 5 -w 256 950/1010/1.1 volts 110 MHash/s at 90 watts (90-55)=35 watts for 110/35= 3.14 Mhash/w (U=1.62/m) That's still 2.5X MH/w less than a 5970 using the same metrics (5.67 MH/w). But for gross power consumption, that 7750 appears very fuel efficient, so to speak.

[04:12:10] <@PooL-X> The expected generation output, at 200 KHps, given current difficulty of 1.5926655, is 126.31 LTC per day, 5.26 LTC per hour, Estimated time to find a block is 9 hours 30 minutes 3 seconds That's the amount of kh/s mtrlt was saying, or at least an average: that's $1.20 a day. Now, with my 6870 I get 300mh/s on bitcoin...which earns me an avg of 0.2BTC a day, which is around $1/day So really they're about equal, if bitcoin price rises any more, it's more worthwhile to mine bitcoins on a GPU. I believe that quoted 200 KH/s is from a single 6990. So 126.31 LTC per day from a 6990 equals roughly 0.2808 BTC per day. You could just as well mine BTC to the tune of around .60XX BTC per day with the same card. Unless I mis-read where that 200 KH/s came from, you'd really have to squeeze 400 KH/s+ out of a single 6990 before it even begins to become equal to net daily output from mining BTC.

What's up with all the invalid blocks? Seven so far today! That's like 350 BTC that Tycho is out of pocket Its hard to read up two posts... I tell you HARD. lol I had started my post before DeepBit explained it, but I walked away to go to something and came back and finished it. Who knew?

Can the attempted FUD slinging get any more lame or blatant by the Coinhunter sockies?
~BCX~
Maybe I was a little harsh... I mean anyone that's a Seal Cub Clubbing Memeber can't be that bad ! No worries I'm just frustrated, that's all. I bought a few thousand at .0027XX and thought I got a good deal (I actually still do), but then the BTC took a downturn over the weekend and instead of LTCs increasing in value to compensate, they stayed in parity with BTC. But SC seemed to have increased in value as a response to the drop. Normally I wouldn't even care but now I have skin in the game, so to speak (or however that chicken & pig analogy goes anyway), I'm paying more attention to the fluctuations. Maybe that's my problem to begin with. I think I should just not look at the charts for a few weeks

This is frustrating. I'm dumping all my available resources into mining and buying LTC and when BTC drops the LTC/BTC exchange rate stats exactly the same. On the other hand the SC/BTC rate seems to increase commensurate with the drop in BTC. At this rate it feels like I'd be better off just accumulating SC as a hedge against BTC fluctuations. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

Why is the 5850 on there twice? I'm curious to see where the 5970 would place.

Day: 610MHz / 200MHz / 887mv / 64C Night: 825MHz / 200MHz / 1050mv / 78C

Did you hear the other teams...
So 27-seconds ago.

so basically there's just an illusion of community involvment? Electoral college anyone?
