At 1.35ghash your talking about dissipating over 400 watts with one heat sink, good luck with that

do we expect about 90% of 2x 7970 hashing speed? or about 1.35Ghash/s max?

Right now?  BF3, ME3 and Skyrim... though I haven't had much time to play in the past couple months.

Mind if I add you on Origin? I play BF3 often, and I could also use a pilot/gunner when flying choppers

I honestly would buy one for a grand if it came with a waterblock. Until then, 7970's under water can still be added to a loop for less than this card with stock air cooling.

I believe in gaming!


What do you play? Didn't know miners were into gaming. But I guess it kinda makes sense.

12V 375A - simply a welder machine.

BTW: Let people see Inaba buys such a GPU... Lo and behold, he himself don't believe in ASICs... Wink

Because I don't have a big bang board (and don't want one) and managing my two 6990's is kind of a pain with water blocks.  I'm looking forward to only having to manage one card.  Less heat, too... not that it's going to be a big deal after the ASICs come, as all my GPUs will be turned off.


Well, I found a way for you to power them if you do want to add a second.  http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Cases-and-Cooling/Miller-Electric-10000W-Power-Supply-Review

Come to papa, baby!



Why not quadfire on a big bang board? 7970's are cheap in relation to this monster. Who's going to make a wb for this one-off 'x2' board? Don't start talking about less cf issues because they will be there, I promise.  That said, I want one.

PowerColor any good? I usually just buy from MSi and Sapphire.
I put PowerColor up there with Sapphire and Gigabyte. Never used MSI, but I think they're in the same class.

It's all about the dB man, not the performance when it comes to the fans.
Ah, gotcha. I'm still using fans for all my stuff. Haven't had a silent night's rest in nearly a year.
