Greetings and Salutations Miners! I am in the newb section. And... that being said... and i hope you are sitting down.... as you may find this surprising..... and a little unusual in this place... because i have some newb questions. I know ur shocked.
Q1a.
I did not know this, but my m2n-e mobo does not support multiple GPUs. I knew it was not SLI, but what i did not know was that if i connected the pcix1 to x16 lane adapter it would still not work. i did not plan on using another GPU for gaming just mining. That being said, is there a mobo out there, and it is more than fine that it would me more that a few years old, that supports ddr2 and an IDE hard drive that you would recommend (other than the m2n-e sli)? That way i can swap out the mobo without making a huge investment.
Q1b.
if i connect a (or many) x1 (or x4) to x16 pci- adapters to an SLI or crossfire mobo, are there any circumstances where it would *not* work? I mean will it use all the GPUs?
Q2a.
Regarding Butterfly labs.... i made the decision in february to buy a 30 GHs model... it has been more than three months now so I cannot dispute it as fraud on my credit card (they have an 89 day limit). Every day that passes by i feel like more and more of a chump. Should i request a refund? Should I bother? Have i dun fucked up?
Q2b.
Is there a link that discloses how many of their (by this i mean BFL) miners they are building? Thinking a massive supply will just create a plummet in BTC value.
Q3
Kind of unrelated, but how come no one plays bombermine any more?
http://bombermine.com/ used to have thousands, now only a few play. Did I miss something? did something better come out that i wasn't aware of?
