Okay, pulled my miner out of its case and put it on a rack, significant temp improvement, next stuck a 200mm fan over the two gpu's moderate temp improvement. it's now running at 98% of stock clock speed at 60% fan (must better on the ears) consistently drawing ~370w which is a bit less than i...

Okay I have a mining rig setup now, running windows 8 90 day eval just to see how I go, lots of heat problems, these aren't particularly hot cards but the small space between GPU's on the motherboard is a huge issue (bottom gpu 10% OC 50% fan top GPU -50% oc 70% fan) I'm thinking an open no case...

ah so what you can't see is I also made a PSU requirement table, 3 or 4slots isn't always a good idea... Also most cards seem to be double width now days and none of the motherboards seemed to have 4 double width slots only 3. Ifigured you probably didn't want to cheap out too much on the PSU...

Okay finished my spreadsheet, Made two systems, a low cost to entry system and an optimal system cost G-B B75M-D3V 62 Intel G1610 44 7970 409 7970 409 GS800 127 memory 16 hdd use a spare total cost 1067 MH/s 1300 power usage 750 $ per MH/s 1.2183692596 G-B B75M-D3V 62 Intel G1610 44...

linux drivers are very underdeveloped for video cards, okay just put a mild overclock on my 7770 for 200Mh/s @ 65 degrees and about 80 watts let me experiment further...

Looks good, I should fix a spreadsheet tonight to figure out what the most cost effective hashing gear is atm. I imagine the best way to do this would to be to create a bunch of boot via network linux machines but, I'm guessing linux video card drivers wouldn't be as good, possibly leading to...

My thinking about investing in metal is more that the AUD wont retain it's "Hard As" status for ever and when it falls I'll hopefully preserve some wealth. Also it diversifies my savings...

This little butterfly labs miners are cute, i'm tempted to pick one up for novelty purposes.

Maybe I saw the wrong things, I was looking at these guys http://launch.avalon-asics.com/ reading a bit more i'm thinking their unit ships with a 600 or 700w PSU and they are using chips that dissipate about 150w each, and there will be two in the base unit with the option of adding a third...

I highly doubt that. the ones I saw were more like 600w an ASIC is just a custom designed processor , you have to actually design, create a mask and start manufacturing this thing in a chip fab (which is NOT cheap) I imagine they are just a normal intel CPU with a special daughter card and...

They're a little bit faster than that: http://www.top500.org/lists/2012/11/ and they can do alot more than just simple hashing but your point is essentially correct. Any thoughts on the new ASIC miners or FPGA miners, looks like they will push people using graphics cards out of the market?

I was going to recommend TPG as well, don't use them if you expect to need to call up for service though, apart from that they provide outstanding value (probably because they have their own international cable) disclaimer, I have a couple of shares...

I'm not convinced the government should own either of those companies

That and there was only 1 Telstra to sell...

Just FYI, traffic cameras in Vic do not record footage, can't vouch for anything on a toll road or another state though, perhaps someone else can add more information? So that whole look at the traffic cam thing you see on NCIS, etc doesn't work here. (I'm not sure if it even works there...)

Nope tax free threshold has tripled under gillard http://www.ato.gov.au/individuals/content.aspx?doc=/content/00322113.htm apart from that it's the same gradiated scheme...

Are you saying there is a humanist conspiracy to take over the world?

wanna bet they'll be stored in Darwin soon?

I'm trying to figure out the ideology of the initial "master mind" behind this. Like golden egg said about quarter of these just seem to make the whole country easy pickings to predatory foreign powers. Another quarter seem to just make problems... (seriously you want unregulated spectrum? you...

That is not what was said, it was claimed that excessive regulation caused the GFC, That's just trolling. If it looks and smells like a troll I'll call it one. We're not talking about just regulation anymore, now you're saying that current law is the issue...
