Got it working. Instead of choosing to turn the display off I set a blank screensaver.  I don't know why you guys are having an issue, I used to turn off my monitors just fine and it still works.

Thanks for feedback everyone, I've listed the cards in other places now. Lowering price to $170 each for LOCAL PICKUP ONLY. Everyone else expect that price + shipping costs.

Not like I put any "miles" on them lol. Look brand new, never abused, original packaging and parts. What's the difference when you wanna mine?

Miners will always be around and the mh you get for the value of the card is still a bargain. Don't believe me? do the math on 6990s and you'll see that 5850's are by far the best value. They're in high demand STILL and there aren't many for sale. $200 is fine, don't listen to any other lowballer stuff. If they think they can get it cheaper within reasonable time - let them try lol.
Difficulty increase has no effect on the price of the card, its not like those ati guys are cranking out new cards just for you miners because they are aware you need more of them to keep up with bitcoin mining difficulty ROFL.

I see what you mean. This case has horrible airflow and no side intake. I just removed the side and its already 17 degrees cooler! Was at 85 or so now 68.
Wow I guess that answers it! The other case has perfect airflow, 2 front intakes, 1 side intake, no obstructions whatsoever, removed all lower bays. 2 upper fans blowing out and one in the rear and it runs at a constant 65ish degrees.
I can't believe I paid so much for that case back in the day!

I've got 2 pcs, one is running fairly cool and I believe it will sustain during the hot summer as well. The other system is using an older case and is constantly running 10-15 degrees higher and I'm really worried about it getting overheated in the summer as I don't always run my AC.
Is it better to have it out without a case sitting somewhere? Or should I try to get another one that's same as my first one?
How do people go about setting up their rigs?
Thanks!

This sounds like a good idea and a logical step forward to bringing new payment methods to existing merchants without having to educate them on how it works exactly. I can see this working but I'm not sure if this is viable right now. The exchange rates are too volatile and even if you used gox api to position a merchant 50/50 coin / USD it could prove difficult to sell the coins. It only takes a small group of people trying to sell all their coins at x fixed price to drive the entire market down and leave you unable to crash out.
This is a good concept and I'd love to see it turn into a reality, bumping this up.
