This might be odd but im mining at 600mhashes and the card said on the solo mining 5k blocks. do i need to go to 130k block before it can actually find a bitcoin? If it finds a bitcoin will it say on the bottom how many coins i have found/mined? or is there a different option to view what bitcoins you have found/mined.

wait until you download all blocks then start mining solo

Also, 600 Mhash/sec will probably never find a block.  But if you get lucky, it will show up as a generation transaction in the main panel.

does it make more sense to just jump in a pool getting a tenth of a coin ever hour

Yup...

Sorry man but at that speed you will never find a block. Just join a pool and get a steady stream from there.

that point is that i can easily have 2ghases per second i just need to get an additional motherboard for my 3 6970s. i was asking if anyone can request a motherboard that can actually fit 3 6970s and a psu that can support it. or worst case scenario i get two psus

That obviously ups your chances but I suggest you review the Wiki where it helps explain how to calculate how long it may take to generate a block on average, etc. 2Gh/s is decent however it will still take some time to find your first block.
