Coinwarz was it. Yea I noticed lots of coins bouncing around, but leaf seemed to be staying up there

Edit: and how does 2 6950s (unlockable to 6970, if that makes a difference) for $220 sound for mining? I've seen around that they can get around 350-450kh/s

That's a good deal. You can still pick them up on Ebay for around 120-130. The only thing that has kept me from doing it is that I know that 90% of them have been mining for years. If you're just buying them from someone you know, it's an awesome deal.

All my PC parts have shipped!!!

The only thing I am missing is a decent HDMI monitor and a mouse/keyboard combo. Are there any overstock places where I could get either of the above at really deep discounted prices?

Did anyone play the "G-Nome" as a kid?




The game just released on steam for early access called "Hawken", reminds me of the 96/97 PC game.

<--Mechwarrior, I do remember G-nome though. Hawken looks an awful lot like both of them

I don't remember that one. Must have been when I was fully distracted by N64.

Yeah same here, but I only had a PC at my Grandparents house. So my summer days when I wasn't old enough to stay home I would play PC games.

Backyard Baseball, GNome and some bass fishing game ruled 95-97 for me.

I remember that game, just never played it. Was that around 2000?

Remember 3 of so titles coming out in the series.

What's a decent, yet cheat, mobo/cpu combo for mining? I assume something like a pentium, but I have no idea. I'm going to throw it in my closet so I won't have to worry as much about the heat. I'll be running two 6950s and a 290x. I'll probably grab some 7870s/270x in the near future.

I'm going to be putting this inside my source 530 (full tower) because I'm getting the white windowed r4 (r4 will get the 270x/7870s when I get them).

My MtGox account got hacked into last night. Imagine the hackers disappointment when after finally cracking my password there is only .00255000 Bitcoins in that account because I don't trust MtGox. He didn't even move it to his wallet or anything though. I got my account back this morning.
