The calculator is 100% accurate.
The results are at odds with other calculators I found. However, this debate can easily be decided. Please show your calculation to everybody here. With the changing difficulty rate, it is likely a simple geometric sum. You arent very smart.
I do not appreciate this ad hominem attack. Instead of attacking me or my intellectual abilities, I suggest that you attack my arguments, and provide here your full calculations. Or, just keep your Jalepeno. |

Is there a site that keeps track of CHN coin's difficulty and also shows the expected date of the next retarget?

http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculatorI probably will end up keeping it and mining many more than 35 BTC in its lifetime. But if I could get some BTC now I could invest them into other things. Just trying to make my 25 BTC purchase sting a little less. BTC will sit in escrow until the item is actually delivered. No hot potato or scam here. This calculator is overly optimistic, and it does not account for increasing difficulty. If you spent 25 BTC on this, then hey, according to your calculations, you should get ROI within less than 3 months, right? So, can you not wait that much? |

i really really doubt that someone is offering u 35 BTC for 5GH .. thats insane
ROI in a year is not insane. Your calculation of ROI in a year assumes that the difficulty of bitcoin is not going to change. We all know that this assumption is simply wrong. You are incorrect. If difficulty didnt change 35 BTC would ROI in ~ 4 months. Let's do some calculations. At current difficulty, 5 GH/s gives about 0.22 BTC/day, correct? So, that is 6.6 BTC per month, and so ROI is about 5.45 months. The question is what is the rate of decay of the rewards. An even bigger question, which you have not explained yet, is why do you want to sell it if it is such a good deal? It looks like you are trying to pass on a hot potato. Let me be clear: we are not talking about an item that is in your possession, but rather an item that G-d knows when will be delivered. |

Even with some severe difficulty increases a ROI of 1 year seems like a good investment to me.
There is going to be a premium involved in buying your way to the front of a very long pre order line as well.
I paid 25 BTC for this pre order (Yes, you can point and laugh, but that was the price back then), if there are no better offers I will simply mine the coins myself as I originally intended.
If mining with it is such a good deal, then why do you not keep itself to yourself? Your calculations seem to be completely missing the (what appears now as) exponentially increasing difficulty. My offer of 0.75 BTC stands. It is a good offer. :-) |

I offer 0.75 BTC for the item.

what price are you looking for?
Im looking for offers. Buy it now for 79 BTC. Jalepeno is the 5GHs one correct? Yes A bit high for me, but watching with interest. Thanks. It was intentionally high. I am looking for offers. 79 BTC is over $8,000. Can you give me any economic reason for want to buy it for that price? Did you make a calculation how long it will take until the new owner generates that much money using the miner baring in mind the current prices/difficulty? Am I missing something? |

I don't think it will actually take anything less than 1000 for memory, it reverts back to 1500 every time for me.
Did you look into altering the bios? |

4 gigabyte 7970 GHz editions, OC to 1150 and 1150 mem. All average out about 700MH/s.
Why do you not lower the memory to 600 Mhz? |
|
|
|
No checksum and stuff, just force the flash.
(I also have one edited for 1.09V and 300Mhz, just in case)
Thanks! |

How did you lower the voltage to 1.09V? It it this line? 000b1f0: 0000 0000 b603 0000 0000 4204 0000 0000 I was also wondering if you needed to do something with the checksum? |

Where did you get the frame that the parts are attached to? |

Is a generic AMD bios I modified (with a hexeditor) for all my 7970 cards, using them for months.
Would you please elaborate on how you modified it using hexeditor, and in particular, what offsets control voltage, etc.? Many thanks in advance! |

How are you able to keep the temperatures so low? |

Been running now for about 30 days with absolutely no down time. Settings are as follows:
Diamond HD7970 (7970PE53G)
Stock core voltage (seems to crash when voltage is lowered for me)
Core Clock 1150
Mem Clock 685
GPU 1 Fan - 75%
GPU 2 Fan - 75%
GPU 3 Fan - 75%
GPU 1 Temp - 57
GPU 3 Temp - 63
GPU 2 Temp - 59
Running the most up to date catalyst v13.4 with best results so far
My average is between 2000-2100MH/s total, pretty impressed so far.
This is very impressive. Were you able to lower the memory clock so much in Linux, or is it working only in Windows (MSI AB)? |

I just read the beginning of the court filing... is that really the case that they signed away all of their north america business in exchange for for royalty fees? and no up front payments from coinlab?
You are probably reading pleadings (i.e., wishlist of the plaintiff), not the evidence. :-) Probably no statement of defense was filed yet either. Wait and see. |

Yeah, everyone wants their piece of the action. The bigger BTC gets, the more lawsuits you'll see.
Yes, but also the more money people dealing with BTC will have to spend on expensive lawyers, just like any other business does. |

I came across the phrase "direct mining access" on the website of several pools, such as this one: http://fhc.ub3rl33t.com/indexDo you know what this term means? |
