ou're going to have a fun time trying to adjust voltage and clocks for all those different cards. In my experience, I'm only able to adjust the top card(and the ones that match it). All the others stay at stock. Mixing and matching on the same board is and interesting experience. I had mine in this order at one point:
7950

Fckk you're right. I was thinking about downvolting in the PCIe lanes but then again, those aren't even fckking needed. Blah...

I guess I'm going to just be downvolting the hottest/largest card.

EDT: This is going to be fun.

Should I buy all Noctua fans for my mining case with a Lamptron controller?

Use your CGminer config to set clocks and voltage. Take all overclocking software out of the equation if at all possible.

Its for my bedroom HTPC/SteamBox. I don't want it running all the time. That would annoy the GF and myself.

That makes sense.

I need to stop using GUIMiner and start using CGMiner.

When I got home last night we ended up running laps around out backyard ... came inside and forgot all about computer shtt. Will convert everything to CGMiner this afternoon hopefully.

Running 24/7 will stress anything.

I want my gaming hardware to be ready to handle OCs when I game. Just remember when I used to fold, everything would be shot after. The CPUs and cards wouldn't handle stock clocks sometimes.

Then again, if it actually starts making decent money I may consider running them. Until then, no, this is really not to make money but the fun of buying and putting hardware configs together. Im thinking about it in this way, "folding at home fun for free".






at current rates and profitability I'll be making almost as much as I did at my full time job(after taxes). I want to break $500 a week. That would currently take around 6M/h

And once you're up to 6MH, it will require 12.

Odd?

No it isn't odd dude. Lol ask any folder.

Edt: lol what am I looking at LSU?

Sorry for my mispekling, I'm terrible typing on a phone, even if this Nexus 5 has improved it some.

Sure, heat and voltage are the causes of degradation. I thought you were putting a block on it. Your pump and fans will exhaust their MTBF before that.

I have seen degradation with CPUs more so, since folding was more an overclocking competition that included voltage increases. Not recommended when mining.

The net hash rate increases daily, and so does the difficulty in order to maintain a consistent block time. Notice how AMD cards go out of stock so often. If we managed to double our hashrate, many many more people will have managed to do the same.
