Actually -could- be legit. luke from eligius pool (he owns the pool) threw up a picture of the fpga miner. It was in a temp directory on his site so I copied it to my dropbox before it got taken down.

OP You're just paranoid. Just be happy you got free coins. And no, nobody can just take coins from you unless YOU send them on PURPOSE. It's your wallet, not a bank. Nobody can take coins from you without your authorization (unless someone steals your wallet)

n4l3hp looks like you have cpu bug too. your processors clearly have a load on them while mining.

Delta is like server quality. server fans run at 100% 24/7/365 and they don't have problems. fwiw I have this http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/de12tfexhisp.html

Only 465 mhz core? Thats really really slow, stock speeds are like 725.

300mh is pretty decent for a 5830, if you want considerable more the clocks has to be in the 1000s

Nice necro brah

I can do 820mh on a single 5970.
no proof you just have to believe me.  Cheesy

cant printscreen and save jpg on tinypic or something? Tongue

Current exchange rates are garbage. If you already have the hardware though, then at current exchange rates and difficulty, you get about $0.25 per 100 mhash per day.

If you don't have the hardware, then, say, a 1 ghash rig will probably set you back I'm guessing $500? At the above rates, it'll take 200 days to make your money back and break even.

you need what's called a single slot card one like this should fit nicely

Too big. He needs a "Low profile" card. The best you can get with that is a 5570 or 6570.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121441 6570 with dual slot active cooling

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102874 5570 with single slot active cooling

6570 will have the upper hand since it has 480 shaders vs the 5570's 400 shaders. They have the same core clock though.
1910  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Intel GPUs in their CPUs on: October 15, 2011, 03:42:04 AM
Intel is quite new to this whole GPU thing. For them, right now, it's good enough if somebody can see the Windows desktop, watch YouTube and play Farmville. And honestly that's good enough for the majority of people buying these systems. Maybe in the future their offerings will improve.

Intel has been selling GPU for 20 years.  Intel is the market "leader" in terms of volume.  They sell more GPU than AMD and NVidia combined.  If 20 years of experience hasn't caused them to be innovative I wouldn't start holding your breath now.

wat?

1915  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Can't shake the 100% cpu bug. 3 formats. Please help on: October 11, 2011, 01:59:49 AM
This worked for me

I picked up a 5770 cheap yesterday to run along with a 5830.  Noticed 100% cpu usage once I started mining. I had  0% usage when running one card.  Seems to be a common problem caused by the openCL drivers.  Here's what I did to fix it.  Running WIN7 64 bit / Phenom II dual core cpu.

I have one monitor installed to both cards (HDMI / VGA port)
Boot with both cards plugged in.  Go to screen resolution display settings and on the drop down menu for multiple displays select " Show desktop only on 1" (for 1st installed card)
start up your miner for that card.  Go back to display settings and select "show desktop only on 2" (for 2nd card) Now start up another miner for that card.  
I am now getting 0% cpu usage.  I'm assuming this will work for Windows XP also.  You may have to select extend display or detect first for Windows to recognize both cards before doing the above.

Does it have to be a real monitor and/or the same monitor? I tried with 1 real monitor and the other with a dummy plug, 1 attached to each card, and I still get cpu bug. 11.9 release drivers with the sdk that comes with it, guiminr, phoenix 1.6.2, phatk 2.2, -a 250 -k phatk2 VECTORS WORKSIZE=128 FASTLOOP=true AGGRESSION=4 (dont need to specify bfi_int anymore)

I'm using two real monitors.

Edit: I switch both displays on to set the clocks.  Then I close off a display and start a miner, then close the other display and start the other miner.

Oh, you're using 2 seperate monitors. I was about to say "I followed this to the letter, still doesnt work", but now I have to hook up TWO monitors... I was using 1 monitor that had both vga and dvi on the back and I just switch it on the monitor... BRB

Edit: Hooked up my dell 30" via dvi to my main gpu 5830, hooked up a 22 inch hanns G on VGA on my 5870 that normally is used just for mining and usually has no monitor on it. Booted computer with both monitors on and had extend displays as it was turned on. I went to screen resolution and picked "show on 1" and started the miner thats respective for the monitor that is currently showing stuff (the other one automatically switches to standby at this point). That miner is always 100% cpu bug on 1 core. While it is mining, I do "show desktop on 2", the main monitor goes on standby, other moni9tor turns on, and I turn on the miner respective to that gpu. It's still 100% cpu bug. I already force both instances to 1 core so it's still using up 1 core.

What drivers are you using? what sdk? What miners? You're using the same os as me so it cant be that, and i dont thin kthe card difference should do anything since you're using 2 diffrent cards as am i.. this is so frustrating. It's not an option to use 2.1 sdk either because for some reason guiminer as well as phatk 2.0/2.1/2.2 won't run with sdk 2.1

1917  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: [BRAG] Highest Stable Card Clocks, Show Proof on: October 11, 2011, 01:15:46 AM
uh.
and how much power does an overvolted 5870 use?


better get a kill-a-watt.

Have one. Don't want to turn off my PC as well as disassemble it to get baseline numbers.

TDP of 5870 is 188 watts. Stock frequency is 850 MHz. Stock volts seem to be 1.163. OC'd frequency = 1080. OC'd voltage = 1.238

188 watts*(1080/850)*((1.238/1.163)^2)= 270.67 watts.

This is best guess. There is no way to get solid numbers without pulling apart my computer as well as getting PSU efficiency since wall socket power won't be the same power draw as inside the computer.

24/7 stable over 500 mhash. plummeting btc prices have forced a more conservative and efficient overclock since i pay for electricity (1010 @ stock volts)

Did they deliver the ones bought at the low prices?

He hasn't cancelled my order yet but hasn't shipped either.


"He"? As in 1 person? Sounds like you, and everyone else that bought, got scammed.
