Whoever gets the reward for that cycle gets the fees.

Umm. A lot of banks have withdrawal limits (for the general public, not businesses, etc.) in the US. Especially at ATMS/etc.

To close out an account and receive all of the money (if it is a large amount), you generally have to talk to a bank manager.

They can be assigned by the pool operator, but I think that'd show up as a normal bit sent to you...

I'm in slush's pool and deepbit, but both of them usually send to an address and I have a bunch of received transactions from them - never had this before.

It may have been some transaction fees.

Disable crossfire and try again.

Of the 'larger' pools, you have DeepBit & Slush. There are a few smaller (50Ghash/s or so) linked below:

It's just the hash rate that's displayed, no errors or confirmations. Is this how it's meant to go?

What are you using? GUIMiner?

As for running in a pool, it allows you to stabilize your income. Instead of waiting 1/3 of a month (on average ! can be longer or shorter...) you see results much sooner.

I can't say that I advise running $600-1000 of equipment caseless. You're already spending so much, you can afford a $50-100 case...

So I got my 5870 yesterday and I've had it going in Deepbit for a day (Previously had a 560Ti, just wasn't cutting it).

After reading the anti-Deepbit threads I've decided to try it alone for a month. I've just ordered another 5870 to double my hashing power and at current difficulty levels, calculators tell me it'll take 10 days on average to generate my first block.

How do I know that I've not done something wrong? Poclbm is happily mining away with a speed of 370mhash/s so I assume it's doing something. With Deepbit I knew it was working because I could see the results by the hour, but how do I know this is working?

If you're seeing numbers (eg. 370mhash/s), then it's working.

It should show you if there are any invalid blocks that would cause you issues.

So I've started doing bitcoin mining with my gaming PC when I'm not playing games. Using GPU mining with a 5770, I'm averaging 184.0 Mhashes/sec, and contributing 0.02% to the pool.

Is that good? What's the average percent contributed?

For that GPU, that's normal.

I'm getting a bit over 200 with a 6850. You could get closer to 300 with a 5850... (different architectures and lack of optimized code for all of them).
