Updated OP.  Just need to buy a PSU now.  Shoot me offers on what you have.  

Updated OP again.  Back in the market for a PSU, GPUs, and mobo combos.

Purchased 4x5870s, 2x6870, 1xMSI GD65, and 1xTX950 PSU.  Coins sent.  Will update when received.  Thanks!



Damn you. :/

Sorry   Embarrassed

Thanks guys.  Working perfectly running through the switch.  All PCs are now utilizing PC2's wireless adapter.

I bridged the connections,
..
If I ran PC 1, 3, & 4 to the switch, and then a cable from the switch to PC 2, is there anyway all 4 PCs could use PC 2's wireless adapter?
Not sure how you bridged the connections,
but Internet Connection Sharing (ICS, activated on PC2) should do the trick.

I started out using ICS, but I started having trouble with unidentified network issues and PC1 wouldn't connect to the "network" of PC2.  So I was playing around, and just figured out if I highlighted both the wireless and the lan adapters I could bridge them, and they both worked that way.

You could use a wireless switch,not a router,that wirelessly connects to the router,then the PC's connect via ethernet to the switch.If you can find one,I looked & found nothing...........

Or,wireless cards for each PC.Probably cheaper than a wireless switch,if one exists............

Cards go for about $15-25 each,maybe less if you find them on sale  Wink

I have a switch, but it isn't wireless.  Currently I'm only running two of these PCs.  The setup I'm using for these two, is a crossover cable from PC1 to PC2, and PC2 has the wireless adapter in it.  I bridged the connections, and can get both on the internet that way.  But since PC 2 only has 1 ethernet port, I can only do that once.  I can't run PC3 to it for example.

I'm trying to be stubbornly efficient and not buy anymore hardware lol 

Good idea,try it & let us know if it works.Bandwidth may suffer,but you could have a connection at least  Cheesy

I have never had such a need nor any of my customers either,so holler back!!!!!!!!! Wink

And I would just use standard ethernet cables to make those connections correct?  No need for crossover cables since I am using the switch?

Like it has previously been stated in this thread, I can't get my 7970 to run in Reaper with thread concurrencies of 20992, 21712, or 24000 and lookup gap set to 2.  Reaper just crashes immediately.  Thoughts?

Upstairs:  Windows 8 x64 PC connected via ethernet cable to Linksys 54G WRT which is connected to cable modem.

Downstairs: 4 PCs all together side by side.  I have one wireless adapter.  All 4 of these PCs run Windows 7.  2 are 32 bit & 2 are 64 bit.  All 4 PCs have a single built in ethernet port on the motherboard. 

What do I need to get all 4 PCs downstairs to connect wirelessly to the internet through the Linksys 54G WRT upstairs?

I have tons of routers, switches, hubs, crossover cables, and ethernet cables.  What I am short on are wireless adapters and PCI ethernet cards.  I would prefer to set it up based on the hardware I have.  What would be the proper setup?

is it ok for me to use a work computer to cpu mine in the background? and I can't find flags for xeon e5... anyone know? Thanks

Since this was asked in the legal section, I'll jump in and offer an answer.  The answer is no, not without the consent of the appropriate authority at the business. 

It is not your hardware and it is not your electricity.  You would be stealing electricity for personal gain, and damaging the business's property.  You could face criminal charges for theft (possibly vandalism if the hardware was damaged, depending on how the statute in your state is worded), as well as be liable for civil damages for the torts of conversion and trespass to property.

You would also likely get fired. 

Not a good risk / reward ratio.

Well, BQC is using scrypt which is FPGA and ASIC resistant atleast for the foreseeable future. So incase some company really delivers massive amounts of ASIC miners to people, and Bitcoin's difficulty skyrockets you can still mine these new, less popular chains with your old GPU's and even with CPU.

I still don't understand, even after looking at through the website. Why is it called BBQ? Is it because there is so much heat generated by the inefficient use of CPU resources that you can cook meat on it?


I'm pretty sure it was originally called that as a joke.  Nothing more.  Nothing less.  No real reason behind it.

I have a 950W Corsair and tearing down 3 rigs this weekend but I don't LTC hash rates on them. What cards are you looking for?

Whatever I can get the best $ / kh/s ratio for.  Mostly the 5 or 6 series of cards. 

1153  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTB] PSU & GPUs on: March 08, 2013, 07:06:03 PM
Hmm....Market appears to be pretty dry at the moment. 
1154  Economy / Computer hardware / [WTB] GPUs, PSUs, and MBs on: March 08, 2013, 04:19:02 AM
Putting together another rig.  I'm short a PSU and 2 GPUs.  I don't need a super strong PSU, as this motherboard can only support 3 cards.  GPUs can be anything that gets 300+kh/s with Litecoin.  

I'm also open minded about building an additional rig, at which point I would need everything.  So feel free to make me offers on what you have.  I'm in the US as far as shipping goes.  


UPDATE:  Bought the cards I needed.  Now all I am looking for is a PSU.

Second Update:  I'm now back in the market for a PSU, GPUs, and mobo combos.  
 Shoot me a pm and tell me what you've got.  Make me an offer.

Sounds like something your RL friends might help you with - especially if it's foolproof!
What is  RL?

RL = "Real Life", as in, offline friends.

Nash equilibrium (very loose use of the term, I know) for this is for everyone to send .5 BTC. There must be at least three players for the round to have a winner, so the best possible chance to double one's money is 1/3.
1/3 chance of 2x input is so obviously -EV that the game is unenticing.

I should have locked this thread.... was letting it die.
