      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 based

        But 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

                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

                    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
