From what I remember its a 750wt PSU. Would my best bet then be getting another 2 5700's?
Check, post pictures etc   Wink

And no, to be honest 57xx cards aren't good miners - you could run a couple of 58xx cards in addition to your current one, maybe run ~1Gh/s?
Ok that sounds good I will post some pics in the morning of the current setup.
Many thanks

HEya folks just wondering what the best way to increase my mhash/s rate? Im running a beast of a pc with an amd gpu.
Many thanks!
What sort of AMD gpu, and how many?  Wink
At the moment just a shitty amd 5700. Whats the best to get in the crossfire configuration? Rest of pc is good spec aswell i7,16gb ddr3 ram and 6 fans to cool it down.
There's not much point in buying cards just for mining - stick a couple of 58xx cards in there and you'll have a decent gaming setup that also mines fairly well, or if you want an awesome gaming setup go with crossfire 7970s like me  Wink
thanks for the reply mate which do.you suggest?
Depends what you can find cheap - if you can get a couple of cheap 5870s or something vaugely similar, or if your motherboard can handle 3 5830s, that's a good bet.

I am not sure WHat I have is below:

Motherboard:
Asus P8P67 pro
Processor:
i7 2600k-o/c @ 3,8mhz
RAM:
16gb ddr3 crosshair
GPU:
ATI Radeon HD 5700

Hope this paints a better picture

The board's fine for at least two cards, I think three - the major concern at that point would be your power supply - what do you have?
