Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

It uses max. 525 watts of power, costs more than a 6990 and is essentially as fast as a 6990 in OC mode.

Don't really see how it's going to be useful for mining unless you get one for free. It even requires 3 power connectors.

I think its running a lucid hydra chip for communication between GPU's. Still not sure how much better if at all it will be.

So as fast as a 6990 in OC mode... or not quite as fast as 2 6970's in crossfire.... Really, unless you have a space issue... Or too much money... 2 6970's are still better then this card... The lucid chip, in a bitmining context does absolutely nothing for you... Considering you can just launch extra miners, the lucid chip is only useful for making the two cards appear as one to games, and other big monolithic apps...

Save your money and get 6970s... Wink unless you're really hard up for space... but i think you could almost build a small box and 2 6970s for less then this behemoth... Wink

If you perhaps know any of those people with too much money, you can have them get in touch with me.  I am in fact the world's foremost expert in ensuring that I do not have too much money.  I can successfully apply these principals to your life too!!!  Grin
