And not to mention $1k for 1ghs per card. Worth getting @ 400-500 yes. $1k? No.

obviously.  we are talking theoretically.

but we should consider resale value as well

you gotta think of it from a business perspective...

mine on it for a few months...sell the games, then sell the card after u get a few btc.
the 7950 is a better value at $300 600+ mhs and you can resell the 4 games

Right, but using riser cables could you physically put 7x 7990s on a single motherboard and would it allow it.  If so would the OS see 7 cards or 14 cards

in theory the os would see 14 x 7900 cards.


will it show this many is to be determined.


I see it a issue going past 6x 7990.

thats 3 cards. there's issues going past 6 cores

does the mobo count this as one card or two?  meaning could you put 6 or 7 of these on a mobo or no?

don't know what you're asking. I've heard software can handle 7 or 8 cores. so 4 of the 7990's should run

$1,000 each:

What ever happened to 3dfx anyhow?  Didn't they get absorbed by a larger company somewhere along the way?

yea nVidia bought them out.  I've still got my Voodoo 3500 and it still does a decent job at video capture.  Been thinking of posting it on Ebay or the like to see if anyone would want to have a piece of history.  I'm somewhat of a hoarder though and have the voodoo and a 1GHz Slot A athlon hooked up.  Just don't use them anymore. *sigh*

I haven't mined with it... just took it out of the box to flip off king_pin with then put it back in. 
ok maybe it hashes at 3ghash and you're keeping it a secret
Or maybe it hashes at 1.1GH/s, like the numbers say it would.

HAHA i just saw em

fuck me again

Hmm... probably 90 BTC shipped in the US.


I'd think about that price if you provide some hashing results that are favorable
