Just started and I was curious if anyone had experience comparing the 5xxx line to the 6xxx line in terms of Mh/s.

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.

6950 is the best miner. I use a pair of them unlocked to 6970 shaders and OC'd 920 core w/ +20% power and get ~750mh/s total. Not bad seeing as I built this as a gaming rig and just recently found BTC.

having mined on 6990s 6950s 5870s, i got to give it to thee 5870s hands down, if u can get a hold of them they are cheaper, stay cooler, use less heat, and mine push 390-400megahash with some OC(default voltage) straight out of the box.

Is it the best though ? What was the cost for this?

2 x 5850's get just over 700HM/sec as well... at maybe 1/2 the cost!

5830 is the best from Mhash/s for $$$ perspective. 300Mhash/s for under $100 (if you find used one...)

5830 is my choice as well, given its overclocking potentials.

Yea same 6870 here @ 280-300.  Used on Clist runs good looking for a used 5870 now as I think it outperforms and is cheaper

This account was a fraudulent account.

So I found a 6950 & 5850 @ the same price.

Which is better?

This account was a fraudulent account created by a girl in Melbourne, Australia. There is no point messaging this account, continue with reversing all paypal transactions.
