Teslas are good for floating-point operations, but a sha256 has calculation doesn't involve very many of those.

Sorry to be a newb (that's why I'm here after all) but why is nvidia not good for mining?

Different architecture, makes it very unsuitable to bitcoin mining. Its like 5x slower than otherwise comparable ATI cards.

I have available 46 Tesla m2070 units and 22 Tesla m2050 units.
actually..
Tesla S2070    749.23
S2070 != M2070
M2070 has a Fermi, the S2070 has 4xFermi,
the wiki/mining_hardware_comparsion only lists the M2050 at 80Mhash/s, but given the fact the M2070 has the exact same specs, except for the RAM, which is unimportant for us, it's just as fast (or rather slow) and of course inefficient.

Even if it is that high it's still a terrible deal.

If thats accurate, thats a strangely high hashrate.

Why is it so damn hot in here?
I dunno, I would probably buy one for about $10 or 2BTC.  Nvidia cores just aren't worth a crap for what we do here.

hardcore bitcoin mining on Teslas? are you serious?

significantly less than $2000 is probably still in the $1000 range, which is quite a bunch for a card that only pumps ~80Mhash/s, compared to a single 5850 for <$150 that does 300Mhash/s.

my guess: you're just trying to rip off some newbies.

Hello all!
Пpивeт вceм!

I have recently gotten into Bitcoin mining at a hardcore level.
I am running multiple workstations with Tesla m2070 units and Tesla m2050 units.

They are chugging away just fine.
I normally wouldn't post on the forums, but I came across some cards that could benefit the Bitcoin community.

I have available 46 Tesla m2070 units and 22 Tesla m2050 units.

These are new cards that sell in the $2000 range.
I will sell them for significantly less.

If you are interested, please contact me at  [email protected]

Thanks!
