Hello everyone. I'm new to the mining scene and habe just sunk $300 into dual 5830s for my mining experience. I started out at Deepbit.com but have decided to migrate to the Bitminter to see what that was all about. I'm in the top ten for mhashes! Anyways, I look forward to seeing you guys in the hardware section as computers and hardware are my passion and business. I will be looking to expand my mining venture in the future. I've seen some of the mining rigs and immense setups some of you have and I am thoroughly impressed by the sheer power some are sporting.
Hope to get out of the Newbies section soon,

Hi friends, i started trading bitcoins in my city two months ago. I'd like to expand btc till my entire state, but is quite difficult due to the low news available in italian. Let's hope internet will bring us more news (internet is wonderful!).
enjoy!!
enjoy!!
I'm Jonas, just mining a bit with my laptop, only getting some 14 Mhashes, so nothing groundbreaking 
Hi - I'm Scott, mining a little, saving for watercooling gear 
i always get nervous with WC, just due to the extravagance.
i do have a corsair H70, baby steps, but the big triple radiator kits look fierce enough to a) weigh more than the case b) seem to be just as noisy with 3 fans to cool 2x6970's as the air-cooling rigs. one day, i'd probably like to get something like the swiftech 320 edge kit, with the blocks to cool things. but it's nearly the cost of a 6970 for the WC kit and the extras. sigh.
in theory, if the regular ~50db gets annoying i might spend the money, but it would have to be amazing. and you'd also likely need a UPS that can handle 1kva minimum as well, just to make sure the heat load is not staying around
Greetings to all,
I am of course new to Bitcoin but I've been doing a whole lot of reading now and I am seriously intrigued by all this great stuff. As far as I can tell it is still profitable to Mine for bitcoins and I am a hardware geek extraordinaire. I don't care much for programming but I admin a dozen Linux servers which requires a little bit of it. I can't wait to learn more about Bitcoin and talk with so many of you. I have joined our local Bitcoin Meetup group and have learned quite a bit from them already and I'm excited.
If you are excited about Bitcoin and know a lot about the hardware aspects I would like to talk with you in detail and I would like to get real technical.
Cheers!

don't be so negative, the 5-post-4-hour-rule is there for a reason: to get rid of the trolls. NOT to piss newcomers off.

Hi everyone! After getting up and mining for a solid month now (with the help of this forum of course), I've finally got around to posting (to be honest it took me this long to find the newbie area. 
Hello everyone, I'm me. I'm mainly posting here for another post towards the count of 5, but whatever. :p
I have a whopping 2 Bitcents, and am a tad annoyed I bought an Nvidia GPU with this computer. Ah well, can't change the past now, can we?

oh man, sorry to hear you're disappointed. what is the problem exactly, if you don't mind my asking? I was under the impression that the computer didn't have much of a role in determining the gpu's performance... at least in terms of mining
HAI

Hey I'm a libertarian and wanted to try out bitcoin. Hopefully it goes smoothly.
Hi from Greece
Today i set up my first rig and i am mining at 778 Mhashes/s !!!!!!!
Hope to push this 6990 over 800 Mh/s
I keep reading around but way too many things to learn....

welcome... i'm semi-interested in setting a gpu-miner. are you running yours independent of your main computer? many people seem to do this and i'm just curious if that's in order to avoid issues like overheating or if it's just a matter of preference.
I'm a forum newbie but I've been on the bitcoin irc channels and doing some hobby mining since early April this year.
I really suck at predicting any market, including bitcoin so I stick to mining. Don't take any financial advice from me!
Now I have to make a few more posts to be able to post in the FPGA thread, got 2 new eval boards running now...
