Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

You do not want SDK 2.6 or newer. Some people say 2.1 was better for 5xxx cards, but others say 2.5 was better. Since you've got 6xxx cards, I'd say it's a pretty easy choice of SDK 2.5.

I've never mined on 6xxx cards, but if you need any help tweaking the 5xxx cards under SDK 2.5, I can give you a few pointers.

Thanks for that and 2.5 it is.My main goal is to make it an LTC rig and I guess the only thing left now are settings and perhaps software recommendations.
