http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_prefix

1000 mega (anything) = 1 Giga (anything)*

* Yes binary is different but doesn't apply here and should properly use a different prefix.

Should either be 1000MH = 1 GH or 1024 MH = 1GH. I think it's the first one probably.

Wow see how no one bitched at the guy for asking such a retardely simple question, that's exactly how it should be.

Stop being gay bitches on the internet people.

Technically, since about 1998, 1 giga = 1000 mega of anything and 1 gibi = 1024 mebi of anything although some people still use mega and giga when they should be using mebi and gibi...

See NIST definition:  http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/binary.html

So 1 gigahash/second = 1000 megahashes/second and 1 gibihash/second = 1024 mebihashes/second

Also note that 1 mebihash/second = 1,048,576 hashes/second and 1 megahash/second = 1,000,000 hashes/second.

Our family was terrorized by Homeland Security.  Read all about it here:  http://www.jmwagner.com/ and http://www.burtw.com/  Any donations to help us recover from the $300,000 in legal fees and forced donations to the Federal Asset Forfeiture slush fund are greatly appreciated!

I don't remember people bitching at you when you asked *similar* questions either. This is the newbies' forum.

I don't remember people bitching at you when you asked solar questions either. This is the newbies' forum.

WTF are you talking about, people keep bitching around here, it's literally the noob forums and people keep bitching.

I'm in the newbie forum for a reason, sometimes hearing opinions from miners is less confusing that's all.
