Current prices: $120 = 1 BTC = 1000 mBTC 100 mBTC = $12 one 7 buck tee = 58 mBTC = 0.058 BTC "I'd like a t-shirt for point zero five eight bitcoins please" OR "I'd like a t-shirt for fifty-eight milliBitcoins" Take your pick. Neither sounds great to me because milliBitcoins is a mouthful. Let's start another "how can we make mBTC into a single syllable" thread, find a great shortname for mBTC, and then switch to mBTC (until its time to drop down another 10^3 in a year ).

About a year ago from my friends. Didn't think it was anything but a fad for that whole last year. Recently my friends all bought 7970s and started mining. Don't know why but this caught my attention and I stopped thinking of bitcoin as a passing thing. Now I'm hooked... And I know that Bitcoin is here to stay.

I have the exact same problem. My workaround: disable the screensaver and disable monitor auto power off. That keeps my hashrates at the normal level.

I have the z77 extreme6 also and am running 2x7970s. It run just fine, though one card runs quite hot (91 on factory clock) because the card sandwiched between the CPU and other GPU doesn't have a lot of space to breath on this board. You may need to underclock it to get to safe temps, though the 7950s probably won't generate quite as much heat.

Read and learn. Ask noob questions.

Hi all! Finally jumped on board and started mining Bitcoins. Thanks for the helpful posts.

Quote from: DRKMSTR on May 25, 2013, 04:35:48 PM Interesting, I wondered why my hashrates were low as well, I always thought the pool sites were wrong, how did you record it? Does diablominer record the stats? Perhaps we'll both get a little more mining done DiabloMiner gives 5 pieces of info while running: instantaneous hashrate average hashrate accepted rejected hw error I just record the average hashrate myself before I quit out with ctrl-c.

Quote from: esenminer on May 25, 2013, 03:54:08 PM Do you have any power saving features enabled which kick in when the computer is idle for a while? Hard drives turn off after 20 mins, monitors after 45. I'll try disabling monitor auto-off and see if that works.

I am running 2x 7970, one with overclocked gpu, one with underclocked mem: GPU 1: 1100gpu/1375mem at 72 C : ~650 Mh/s GPU 2: 1000gpu/1100mem at 87 C : ~600 Mh/s DiabloMiner The card that runs hot (underclocked mem) will drop in rate to ~400 and to ~78 C when I'm not using the computer. When I come back to the computer, the rate immediately goes up again. Any ideas what might be causing the drop? TIA.
