Trust me, these default swaps will limit the risks

For some reason I don't think this guy is for real. He could easily buy a radeon hd 5830 for so cheap off of ebay(5850 if he can spend another $20). Why even think about buying a video card earlier than the 3 year old 5xxx series cards?

I got an ATI 9800 Pro 128 I'll sell you. It's flashed to a Mac BIOS, as it's the fastest card that can work in a Sawtooth AGP 2x slot. No, you can't mine on it.

not the point, several say cpu mining isn't possible yet i have a celeron pullin 1.5 m/hash debunking that statement.
While a 9250 won't pull anything close to 500 m/hash, anything better then 1.5 m/hash is better then nothing.

You have near 700 posts and an account for 1.5 years and you come here with such questions and assumptions :/

I think it would be much closer to 5 m/hash than to 500.  Grin But, yes, it  is better then nothing.

No one ever said this! People says that cpu mining is epic useless and a waste of electricity, wich is true.

Yes but, a 9 years ago graphic card?? It's really old! No, it doesn't mine and even if it did, it would be epic waste of electricity, like cpu mining.

Looking for a good deal on an ATI 9250 so I can start mining. Can be 128 or 256, doesn't matter.


You won't be able to mine with an ATI 9250... only look for HD 5xxx, HD 6xxx and HD 7xxx.
