Yes, $146 now at MtGox. We will see $200 by the end of the year

Let's try this again ... May I suggest a donation mining option for cgminer?
Because..., it was such a huge success the last time it was tried? |

Windows 7 and Linux Mint. They just work without dramas, and get out of the way.

For both fun and profit. I discovered bitcoin when I was looking into upgrading my graphics card (for gaming). I was leaning towards NVidia back then I ended up buying a 7870 XT that was decent for SHA256 but terrible for scrypt. Lucky  I since bought a used 6950 for 80€ that already paid for itself. |

This reminds me of the day when I was *this* close to pre-order a Japaleno

How can one be sure to withdraw the 3 BTC after uploading the scans? They can come up with more BS.

What leads me to HW errors are certain combinations of intensity and thread-concurrency. So I suppose, I=20 is fine for some and not for others

Thermaltake 850w, no powered riser on this one, there is only one more 7950 currenty in the mobo so power should be sufficent.
Thermaltake is a terrible, terrible brand. |

My advice is to not run these cards above 1000 mV
This is a damn fine advice. I'm running my cards at 950 |

You must connect 2 pci-e power cables to your card and make sure the PSU can handle the load, i.e. enough amps on the 12V line.

6Gh/s for $200 isn't terrible when compared with some deals I see being made, not even talking about pre-orders. You'll break even in a few months.

You mean, the last option of a failover setup?
I have the impression that if you use cgminer and load-balance with a pool (use a small quota), that actually helps your solo mining, being helped by a connection via stratum. cgminer gets vital information and learns quickly when a new block was detected.

It's probably because from the serie 5 onwards, Nvidia "focused on gaming", or in other words abandoned some instructions that are important for mining, or crippled the card. This benchmark also shows a serie 5 card much faster than the 6:  |

Yes, try another pool, or even another coin. Go to https://www.multipool.us and experiment with LTC, CGB, WDC or FTC coins. Pick the EU or US server according to your location Then check https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison and see what hash rate you should be getting with your card(s). Make sure you're using the "scrypt" parameter on your config file, also look at "thread-concurrency" and intensity (see good parameters on the previous link for your card), otherwise the gpu may be generating garbage. |

Nice tweaking there, Rhovac  I just downloaded that .bin and I'm also getting a few more Kh/s! |

I was an experienced data miner a few years ago. I used the SAS system to do such.
