Good way to make him feel unsatisfied.
Slush pool works fine there might be betters but alas.
Hey I get 360MH/s simply by unlocking it, no overclocks at all. I then gain another 40 by overclocking the core by a mere 90Mhz. 330 for a 6950 is kinda silly when even just overclocking without increasing the voltage should yield way more.
I can't get it higher than 840MHz with Overdrive, and I have no previous experience with overclocking so I daren't touch the other fancy OC tools like RivaTuner. But here: [url]https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison[/url] they managed to get 350MH/s with a 820HZ clockrate, what else affects it?
Some dutch guy trying out bitmining, Like you can see it didn't quite work out as he wanted.

BTW How much USD can you expect a month (Saying you have 400MH/s)
there are a lot more factors that go into how much you'd make off of your speed
it really depends on the pool, how many miners, and the mining difficulty

Oh wasn't that just helpful and funny.
Thanks man!
it was honest

Depends on exchange rate, difficulty and other shit too. roughly speaking though if you use a calculator you can work it out in a rough sense, assuming the value of a BTC stays the same.

-$76 electricity

A grand total of .88c a month if the price stays stable (lol) [sp]it won't[/sp]

That's a bit high electricity price. I only pay about 1/4 of what I make in bitcoins in electricity bill.

Not everyone pays for electricity.
Even if you don't pay electricity 76/month is shit all for hours and hour of work ontop of the damage to you gpu
yeah except running a GPU at 100% isn't that damaging and even if it was most of them have 3 year warrenties anyway.
[QUOTE=Dppdy;31858514]Even if you don't pay electricity 76/month is shit all for hours and hour of work ontop of the damage to you gpu[/QUOTE]
It's only damaging if you run the thing at like 100 degrees.
Running an overclocked gpu at 100% at 70 degrees 24/7 is extremely bad for it. your stupid if you can't see how that would be damaging.
As I said, it doesn't matter, GPU burns out after 1-2 years, so what? Return it under warranty and get a new one.

well hey if you take it as an insult thats not my problem
Atleast you guys aren't retarded enough to discuss your latest plans for the free market :smile:
70 degrees is quite cool for a GPU

Why don't you go play Runescape, This is a thread about bitcoins and all you're doing is shitting all over the place. Fuck off.
Overclocked my 6950 to 900 MHz, only running at 350MH/s :(
What else can I do to get a higher Mhash/s? What flags should I use? Currently using -v -w128 -f0
I can run my 6750 at 860mhz clock speed using AMD's own program specifically for upping the clock values. My GPU runs at a constant 71 degrees Celcius and it has a two year warranty. I'm fine.
[editline]21st August 2011[/editline]
I run my GPU at 860mhz, but it can go up to 870 (from the 700mhz default clock)
Does you warranty cover purposely trying to burn it out?
Did anyone here actually buy a pc for mining?
No, but the fact that AMD produces cards with a built in overclocker means they assume you will use it.
You cant "burn out cards"
they have a thermal shutoff if it gets too hot
i've had my 8800GS heavily overclocked for years and it still works like a dream.
You can only burn something out if you stuff too many volts in it like 9.99 on a CPU
You don't have control over the GPU voltage.

70 degrees is quite low. You're stupid if you think that numbers makes something damaging.
Now if you have some comparisons between the MTBF of an OCed and hot card vs a stock and cold card to show us instead of pulling various large sized arguments out of your butthole, it would be sweet.
Because, you know, A lot of people have been running our GPUs OCed for years, doing things like folding or bitcoin mining. I don't think I've seen many people claim that their graphics card suddenly died, if any.
