I'd love a BFL box... even just the 5GHs one. I did read up some more about flags on the GUIminer and now I'm up to 56MHs  Smiley

Is there much to be made in other coin types, I find it hard enough to get bitcoin into GBP, surely other currencies require quite a bit of work to move them around to whatever you need?

Right now I have 2 rigs:

Rig 1:
3x Sapphire 7950s

Rig 2:
4x Gigabyte 7950s

I want to add another Sapphire 7950 to rig 1. Right now though, I get 4.6 MH/s. Smiley

Just got together a 3x Sapphire 7950 rig, mined only a small time, PSU is having issues. Just
ordered another one, will be back at it on Tuesday, I hope. Tongue

Out of the box it was getting 1800kH/s easily. Some tweaking will take it closer to 2000kH/s assuming
the new PSU works correctly this time.

4x7950 @2500kh/s - all dedicated
2x7970 @1400kh/s - only one is dedicated

My name was simply a play on "Blue Engineer" from Team Fortress. I am not affiliated with Microsoft or the Azure project.

I tried mining with my daughter's computer for a while as mine is elsewhere, unfortunately it doesn't do very well and gets so hot that it blue screens.  Nvidia cards don't seem to do so well at this and I doubt that it's covered the price of the electricity, and this one's card blows the heat out inside the case so it just makes everything overheat.  Maybe I need a truckload of ASIC machines instead....

Core2Quad Extreme QX9650
GTX580
4GB DDR3-1600
Fire probably coming out of it if I keep trying, not worth it.

This account has recently been hacked and taken over, I haven't posted anything for about two years.  Whoever has been using it and pretending to be me is a scammer.

Rig 1: ~1.4 ghash/s
1 - 5970
1 - 5850
1 - 5830

Rig 2: ~1.3 ghash/s
2 - Gigabyte 7970

All the cards except the 5970 are powered off of some server power supply I paid $15 for.

Even if the ROI turns out to be 0, I'm still looking forward to ASICminer's USB Block Eruptor... Smiley

I have a similar setup, couldn't get mining to work in Ubuntu, so using Windows 7. Only got interested in crypto currencies a week or so ago, but already thinking of upgrading my card to a 78xx or something.

At first I had an nVidia GT 450 which was getting about 42Mh/s.  Then I bought a 7870 and now get 425 Mhs.  Power usage is about 260 Watts on my system.  I used to keep two computers running all the time, now I turned off one which was using 180 Watts and now I use less electricity on a net basis.  I started with LTC, but now for me BTC is more profitable.  Every now and then MNC, FTC and TRC are better the mine, for short periods of time.  Seems like that is only a few hours though.

My Rig includes:
2 7950's mining away as we speak.

So far, I've been only mining Litecoins.

We'll see how it goes.

4 x 7970

One is not cooperating at 670-690khash, Other three are underclocked 10mhz on engine for stability.
