You can only use 4 GPUs in windows and 8 in linux, and just FYI, with good cooling the 5850 can push over 400MHash each without much of a problem..

I'd got for a 1200W, just for good measure and some room for further expansion..

*yey* I won 0.01 BTC on the first try, I'm rich :3

Though, is there any limit to the bid?

All new accounts should pass verifications checks (~2-3 days). Until verification all payments on hold.

About that, I've been mining for a few hours while keeping an eye on the statistics page and at least 20 blocks have passed. Shouldn't the 'unconfirmed bounty' rise or is it that I can't earn anything before my account is verified?

Not until the pool solves a block (that is what they pay you with).

One would think that 3-4 hours would've been plenty. But he really need to fix the statistics page..

Though will it show up before or after the block is confirmed?

This is quite nice, my 5850 Toxic is running at 1050 core/1200 memory and 1.25V while pushing a stable 399.57 MHash/s.
Temps at 68% locked fan speed is a stable 69C.

I'm quite pleased :3

That is a nice o/c, but it's inefficient compared to a 5870. You are pumping more voltage while getting less hashrate/s than a 5870.

I get electricity included in my rent so I don't mind :3

The bad part is that my 7 year old 400W PSU couldn't keep up and smelled like it was burning.. So I had to lower the clocks to 1000/1200/1.20V and pushing 381 Mhash. I still think it's good for a 120$ card (or 180$ when I bought it)..

Why do you use AMD drivers for your Nvidia card?
988  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: bitcoin mining quad xfire 5850 - need help picking mobo, case, psu on: May 04, 2011, 10:41:37 PM
I got my Sapphire 5850 Toxic 1GB clocked 950/300 and that's pushing 363MHash/s and never goes above 60C (60% fan).

Even though it said that it couldn't adjust voltages I pushed it up slightly to 1.15 so the card became stable above 925 core.

I will however get two 5850 Extreme and see what I can do with it :3
989  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: PCIe x1 capable of transmitting video or only mining? on: May 03, 2011, 01:18:05 AM
the problem with pci is that you will run out of bandwidth very fast... its 133mb/s shared on all pci slots... so if you have 2 pci->pci-e adapters, max teorical bandwidth for each card is 66mb/s

As far as I know PCI is faster then PCIe x1. But never the less, since when is bandwidth a huge factor in GPGPU work?

I think I'll get one the next time I buy hardware, just for testing if nothing else :3

Cool.  URLs?  I love to be wrong on things like this. :-)

PCI - PCIe x16;
Homepage - Not exactly the same but the same speccs and datasheets..
Ebay

PCI - PCIe x1;
Homepage Flexible
Homepage Low profile

I think he was talking about using PCIe video cards not PCI video cards...just with a PCI -> PCIe adapter. I looked at this also and while I don't doubt that bandwidth will be sufficient I am still wondering how it gets its 12V power over that adapter. The adapters I have seen don't appear to have any external power connection.
There aren't PCI cards that allow you to plug in a PCI-E adapter.  All of the PCI-PCI-E converters go the other way––allowing you to plug PCI cards (usually two) into a PCI-Ex1 slot.

Porting to windows would be much more difficult though.

I'm sure that someone can do that for you when you release the source to a stable version :3

The service is praying for your request, that i will do; but making things actually happen is beyond the scope of the offer.

Oh, we need some competition here.

I'll pray/hope for whatever you want at a low price of 10BTC a day. :3

Those thinking on going with him instead of me, considering his approach, do you think he will really perform the service?

Approach and approach, we get the same work done so I see no argument why someone would pay you 1 BTC a min for doing nothing when they can pay me 0.3 BTC a min or even deadlizard at 0.16 BTC per min for doing nothing :3

Same work for less money, lower your prices to compete? =P

PS. I wonder if there really room on the market for false hope..

On my 5850 clocked 950/300 I get this in phoenix using aggression=13, BFI_INT, VECTORS *;

Workload = 64;
340 MHash/s

Workload = 1024;
363-364 MHash/s

On a Win XP x86 professional using CCC 11.2 and SDK 2.1.
Using a Sapphire 5850 1Gb Toxic, just FYI :3
