Not so late! Still plenty of opportunities in various places; I've found the various marketplaces are still starting out, with more people hoarding their btc and waiting for something useful to do with it.

There are other little quicky opportunities too - the pyramid in my sig still has < 100 people in, so is still fresh and ripe for pickin' if you can handle a little gamble

Things are getting harder and harder

Hello, long time lurker trying to get out of the newbies area.

Hello everyone!!!

if you put a dummy plug on one card or attach a second monitor.
not need on linux though.

Hi everyone 

I'm asking in general if I could put a 5770 on a board that already has a 5850.

Can't post anywhere else Not thread worthy either.

i have them running in 2 systems.
need a new PSU to run them both in my main workstation.
with new psu i could just use a dummy vga plug.

i'd rather get a 2nd 5850 plus a new PSU for that system then

Nice street.

Hey I think the answer is yes absolutely, but I can throw a 5770 on a board with a 5850 and mine them both fine, right?

hi there!

new to the forum. but already mined some coins over the past few weeks.
actually wanted to reply in the 'further improved phatk OpenCL Kernel (> 3% increase) for Phoenix - 2011-07-17' thread
but cant as newbie.

so i just write it here.

speed increase on my HD5570 from 220 -> 222MH/s

Hey, I'm samuel.

I've been mining for a just over a month now at BTC Guild, and I finally decided to make myself a forum account 
Does anyone knows a good site for trading BTC for EUR?

Hi all.
I've known for BTC for a few months now.
Currently in the pursuit to add some USD to my mtgox account via pp/mb trade as I'm from Europe and outside SEPA
Hopefully you guys can help out

Cheers ~

loving the bitcoin revolution, I'm a freedom lover, and it's time to let free currency shine

Hiya guys / gals.

Chris here from the UK. Been mining now for about a month and decided to join the forum today to pick up on some hints and tips.

Hope to chat with some of you soon.

 

I know from IRC there's a handful of us hanging out from the left coast of the United States.
Been a geek since I was 9 - when my dad brought home a VIC-20 (then C64, IBM 8088 - yeah 8088, not 80286 or 386) and I learned Commodore BASIC by typing in programs from the back of magazines, breaking them, seeing what I could do differently.
At this stage in the game, I've not run or used any Microsoft OS willingly since 1996, though I'm forced to keep abreast of developments in order to support my Windows-using clients
My 1st taste of Linux was from a LinuxMall "6 Pack" that included S.u.S.E. gmbh Linux (yep that is what it was called), RedHat 4.1, Caldera Linux, Debian (potato?) and several other distros that have long disappeared.

My current computer set up is FreeBSD 8.2  (GNU Zealots can suck it. MIT license all the way).
Despite the geekness, I'm not a strong programmer (web languages, PHP [and PHP-MySQL interaction], Perl),but I know enough to be a danger to myself but not usually to others. 
I'm currently teaching myself python (and curses) to make a console-based interface to bitcoind (for non-GNOME/KDE/[name your GUI here] users and possible headless--but easy access?)

Anyway, I'm one to try the "latest and greatest and most obscure" and also one to try and break it where applicable.
With bitcoin though, I'm relatively new to the scene. But its idea and the ideals speak to my inner anarchistic anti-statist  libertarian (go ahead, try and  label me - I'm the aforementioned in some regards, conservative in others).
I will more often than not play "devil's advocate" just for the hell of it and in doing so, I may or may not be expressing my true beliefs (something that drives my girlfriend crazy)

Okay, I  tried to keep it somewhat coherent, linear and short. I have problems with that, obviously (but so do other geeks, I've come to notice)
