Hi guys,
I'm getting my Quad 5870 miner home today
But I have some questions:
1) Will it still pay off???
I pay my own electricity, I paid 1150 EUR for the rig
2) How do I set up linux for quad mining ( and hashkill? )
I'm new to these 2 ( i'm a windows Pro, but a Ubuntu newb)
3) How do I overclock my cards in linux?
What is de max voltage for a 5870?
What speeds should I be expecting?
4) Max temps for a 24/7 miner?
I'm going to run them in a antec onehundred.
Side panel off and a big CM megaflow 200mm fan blowing onto the cards
5) These specs are fine, right?
Sempron 140
790FX-GD70
2 GB ram
Silverstone strider Gold 1200W ( gold PSU , should save me some on a long term run)
Kingstone 8 GB SSD ( uses less power and produces less heat , the cheapest mechanical costs just a much.
Antec 100
CM megaflow 200mm
USB stick for the linux install.
I can order 4 more of these rigs , should I? ( really , 8000 Mh wont cause difficulty increase
)
Answers would be greatly appriciated.
Grtz

Each ram stick individually
No Ram
Bleed cap
