Hi,I’m from Belgium and mining Feathercoin for about 2 weeks now.
Hope we can keep it viable

Welcome to the Feathercoin.com forums Armandoke, I hope you stay with us for the long run and keep on mining. :) -
Yes yes, thank you
I’m awaiting my new board with 4 PCI-E slots and then I can setup my second miner :-)
Currently hashing at 600Kh and trying to get to +2Mhash ASAP

[/quote]Which GPUs will you be using and what sort of budget do you have for this second build? ~
If you don’t want to say (the budget side of things) then that’s perfectly fair. xD -
I’m hoping a friend of mine can take some cards from china
He himself got 2 GTX690’s for 400 Euro instead of the Belgian market prices of 2000 Euro for 2
I’ve inquired about the 7950/7970 and 7990.
If prices are good i’m willing to invest up to 1K extra in the project.
-
Sounds very good, although those GTX690s won’t be of much use to you for mining. Not nearly as good as any ‘cheaper’ ATi card that is. :P
It’d be best to grab yourself some 7950s, you’ll most likely get 4 of those for under €1000 but I’d wager the 7990s will be round the €1000 mark each still. x3 -
Correct, he bought the GTX for gaming.
I’m only AMD basedBut if the prices are the same ratio as the GTX I might be able to pick up some cheap 7990’s ;-)

Best of luck to you Armandoke, I do hope you can get some 7990s… But just as an FYI, 2x 7950 can beat a 7990 in mining and are a lot cheaper too. :P -
I also take into account the resale value + 4*7990 in one rig is easier to monitor than 2 rigs with 8 * 7950
-
Nice setup man :) busy running 2x 7950 GPUs at the moment
-
Well, I guess 7990s do have more resale ‘value’ but, honestly, I’m expecting 79xx GPUs to drop by at least half their value in a years time. So I might grab them then. Or grab ones when people disassemble rigs. xD
-
Haha :) I would buy a 3rd rig to mine feathercoins if i had the cash.

I’d grab 2 or 4 7950s if I had the money…
To be honest… With the amount of rigs I DO have lying around I could buy, power and mine with…
4+2+2+3+2 = 13 GPUs
I have the ability to mine with 13 GPUs if I had the money. xD -
Haha that would be quite a nice setup :)
