AFAIK it is not yet possible to mine without fglrx (until someone works on this bounty).

Edit: sold. 10 x Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 6990 for sale. All brand new. 80 BTC each. (I cannot lower the price due to extreme volatility. Sorry...)

Yep you are missing something.
hdminer's target market is not you the home user, but cluster owners who operate 20+ GPUs and are power or cooling constrained (eg. power circuits at 80% utilization per the US National Electric Code), yet need that +6.3% perf improvement without increasing power consumption or cooling needs.

Add the one I wrote: - hdminer: The fastest HD 69xx miner.

Heh, this reminds me I have 1920s German stamps bearing hyperinflated Mark values. I think the highest one is 2 billion Marks. This 10000-stamp collection was given to me by my grandmother.

No, a 13 amp breaker/surge protector may trip, but it cannot explain a poor Mhash/s of your GPUs.

Jan 2011 AMD reported sales of 5xxx and 6xxx GPUs had sold more than 35 million units. Do you really think that 20000 more 6870s makes any difference at all? (20,000 / 35,000,000 = .06%)
The majority of AMD's GPU sales, those that are in the millions, are low-end GPUs. Think the 6400, 6500, 6600, and 6700 series. The high-end series 6800 and 6900 account for only a few 100 thousand GPUs. The 6990 is only manufactured in the quantity of a few tens of thousands of units, worldwide.

I keep hearing about the massive buying power of the bitcoin community...
later: Well this thread put up about 500 but they managed to sell out in a day. Impressive.
I trust you are convinced about the purchasing power of the community now...

I received the 5970. Thanks. Are you GarrettB on IRC (for your rating)?

Yes, I too applaud Jeff's effort to distance Bitcoin from some dubious users (Silk Road), and to emphasize its openness and the importance for the community to comply with financial regulations.

This PSU can handle 2x6950 & 2x5850, assuming you don't have insane overclocks, or other hardware in this machine that is very power hungry. The PSU claims to support 80A on the combined 12V rails, whereas the GPUs need only 59A @ 12V, leaving 21A (252W) for the rest of the system.

Yeah he is at 55 Gh/s today.

Vladimir: So, are you below or above 38 Ghash/s now? (Last time you said you were below ArtForz's 38 Gh/s) In the same spirit, I racked these little guys today:

Link to the detailed specs of your exact model of PSU. There are multiple Kingwin 1kW.

The 4-GPU Windows limit applies to AMD GPUs, not Nvidia. You will find plenty of examples of people running 8 Nvidia GPUs on Windows (such as your link), but never AMD. I myself tried 4 x HD 5970 in Windows 7 64-bit with Catalyst 10.12, but I could never get any CAL app to use all 8 GPUs.

Garrett and I finalized the transaction. I sent him 70 BTC.
I would appreciate if you rated me on #bitcoin-otc. My username is "mrb_".

That "cookie stuffing", I see.
Well it does not change my point. It won't work to execute js code. When you are cookie stuffing, the browser is just interpreting the HTTP headers and will accept the stuffed cookie. It still won't interpret HTML or execute js code referenced by the <img> tag.
If you want to see for yourself, well try it here on SMF.

No, this cannot work. If the forum software translates [img]http://YOURDOMAIN.com/YOURPICTURE.jpeg[/img] to a regular image tag <img src="..."/> then no matter what reply YOURDOMAIN.com sends back, the browser will only interpret this as an image.
This technique can be used to steal cookies (what you call "stuff cookies"), but it cannot be used to run arbitrary js code on the client (victim) side.

jgarzik: I would gladly get out of this auction. (I found a supply of 6990s.) I won't outbid you or whoever bids 71 BTC.
However, if I were to win this auction, I will of course oblige and pay Garrett Burgwardt.

This is like trying to sell a bible to a forum of atheists...
