I Heartily Endorse This Event Or Product

But seriously, wow, thanks! Shocked Though I'm partial to Sapphire cards, I guess I really shouldn't complain at all. These things cost 700+ dollars in .au where I am so I still wouldn't dream of buying one for myself.

I already bought the xfx, but if the donations come in quick enough, I did put one of these in my cart.  I think newegg takes it out of avail if you have it in your cart. but I dont know for how long.

edit:  I was wrong, my cart was empty the next morning. sorry ck it will be the xfx unless more saphires come in.

Definitely stick with Sapphire if possible.  I know they're all reference boards, but many of the other brands are just becoming "cheap" (not to be confused with "inexpensive").  Sapphire is doing a damn good job right now and actually includes some accessories with the product (the XFX card came with almost nothing).  I'm trying to stick to Sapphire and MSI right now for the most part (unless I get a smokin' deal on something else).

Holy shitballs, why is shipping so expensive? 75 dollars? Sure you don't mean pesos or something?

Same country as what?

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

yes, which means I will probably eat the rounded amount since I rounded up.


Isn't there anyone else that want to be able to use cgminer with the 7970, and see it optimized (sorry ck if I am raising the expectations too much Wink )

we are halfway there...  I have the card now.  Well, UPS said they delivered it.

Don't you think many of us offered that. 

Don't you think he deserves at least this much. 

Can you imagine the number of hours he has put into the program that allows us to have hands free mining....??

You've apparently never done kernel debugging before.  Wink

True I guess when trying to debug a graphics card, crashes are gonna happen and doing that remotely would suck.

Indeed when I was working remotely on that 5970 card I literally had someone who would push the reset button for me 10,000 km away whenever he saw the screen go haywire telling him it had crashed, yet that wasn't entirely reliable either and I'd have to email him regularly... and all I was doing was adjusting fan control on it. We were in different timezones too so he really didn't appreciate me spinning the fans up and down while he was trying to sleep  Tongue
