When it comes to which GPU's to have available. The Sapphire HD5850 is by far the most effective when it comes to hashes/$.
I believe they will stop being manufactured soon though. Better stock up.

Things stop getting manufactured for reasons.
Soon waterblock 6990's might hit the market

The bitcoin market?  I've got a water cooled 6990.  Max temp 50-51C with both cores running 24/7.  It's sexy.

Silent hardware - either passive/semipassive or watercooled.

Not everyone likes to have a hairdryer on full load in their living room...

You forgot PSUs

Added PSUs, thanks for the suggestion.

The problem you'll have is that most of the video cards people are after are the ones that aren't manufactured any more.

Perhaps this is an argument for buying something cheaper and with a longer lifespan.  PSUs and accessories would probably be a good fit.

I am thinking about buying some mining hardware in bulk.  I've contacted suppliers to get quotes on a few items, but I'd like some further input.  What mining hardware would you most like to see in a bitcoin mining store?

Damn, bearbones, you're seeing all the same niches I am.
