      Wow nice! Right now I’m running my 4 with a dual power supply setup. I have a 1250watt and a 800watt supply and running them as hard as I can for over 600Kh/s a piece. I have room and power for a 5th so debating. :)

        16? Holy shit. I wish I had that kind of money to throw around. Unfortunately I’m still working on saving up money to buy furniture. (Finally got a bed this month! :D)

        I have 2 of the HIS cards. The voltage is locked at 1.25 unless you flash the firmware. They’re solid, averaging around 660kh/s at 1100/1500, but definitely loud and not great undervolters, so they’re power hungry. The Gigabyte is a good decision, though the MSI would certainly tempt me.

              Ordered 2 Gigabyte (1 for myself and a friend) to get familiar with the mining process. Within 2 weeks, I’m ordering 16 7950s… this should be fun.

              Hope you’ve got a cold shed and/or air con, an understanding wife and a business so that you can run on commercial rates! :p

                This is correct. With ~20x7950s running, you’ll need about 15,000 BTU of AC running to support it. Also, you’ll need about 3 new 20a breakers run to support the electrical requirements for that many rigs.

                    First cards arrived today, having a people run a few tests. We’re planning on building a few beast rigs.
