I heard about bitcoins from a coworker a couple weeks ago. We were discussing alternate currencies and I brought up GoldMoney, mentioning that, as much as I loved it, it sucked it wasn't anonymous like cash. He told me about bitcoins and I've been hooked ever since!

I'm currently (slowly & inefficiently) mining with my gtx 460 I already owned, but just finished planning out my build for a new mining rig: AMD A8-3850 with 3 6790s  Grin  Should be up and running within the next couple weeks. This will function as a mining/gaming rig and a little later I'd like to build a dedicated miner, though I haven't yet decided exactly what type of processor and graphics cards to use. I may wait til after the 7xxx series is released to see if any new 5830-like bargains (in terms of price/performance) pan out. While I'm at it, what would be a good size PSU to power my mining/gaming rig? I'm thinking 1200 watts atm...

Anyway, when I'm established I think I'll post a link to the build on Newegg to solicit suggestions/criticisms.

Well I am a new user to BitCoin Talk, and only been bitcoin mining for about a month.

Current rig:

Some unknown MB w/ Core 2 Duo and 4 gigs of RAM and a 250 Gig HD running Win 7 Ultimate

The machine is what was in the rack at work that was not being used, its a giant 4U full depth macine, what funny is the case is almost completely empty as I too everything out that did not need to be there, the plus is the (3) 5" fans inside blowing air across the MB/Video Cards.

I installed (2) XFX 6950 1GB Cards that I got from the local CompUSA.

The biggest plus is that it runs 24/7 and I dont pay the electric bill!  The Office does.

bitcoins are pretty cool. it takes too long to convert $ to bitcoins though - too many hoops to jump through  Angry now i find myself wanting to purchase something with bitcoins and being BTC0.3 short but needing to wait another day, or two, or three, or whatever for my deposit to clear so i can trade for bitcoins. blah. just blabbing.
