Cazalan, the number of people mining is a spec of dust in space VS the masses earning money through official means/paid jobs etc. I think your overestimating how many people do this, and more importantly how many people do this and actually make a profit ;- )

Cazalan how can they track virtual wallets? They can't :- D

Here is a great entry level setup based around the fact CPU, memory, etc isn't all that important, its all about quality PSU, the more efficient the less the electricity costs and big ATI graphics cards... • CPU: Intel Pentium G3220 3.00GHz Dual Core (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor •...

We get around 22500 k/hash with our x30 290 tower, nvidia cards just aren't worth bothering with IMHO. The Nvidia 750Ti is good for the money VS like for like spend on ATI 280x and 290, but as you ultimately need more PCI-express slots and more nvidia cards for the same hash, the cost of...

well gaming too the fan ramps up to 50-60% which is very loud and vacuum cleaner like. The MSI Twin Frozr is near silent ;)

Just standard fan speed when mining, 80%

Thanks for that so the core is still fluctuating everywhere, hopefully AMD will fix this in there next drivers. Also why is the mem usage so high :- O

t4gx now you have a 4570, can you disable the core lock fix and post up a screenshot of your afterburner after gaming. I want to see how much the default throttle has improved just by going to the intel CPU.

99% of 290 users will leave it as AMD intended though and let powertune go over the top trying to curtail heat and noise ;) As it stands you have to do a messy afterburner fix to get them running like the review samples :(

Not true, the 290's are throttling the core by up to 35% to save heat and power on the current 13.12 drivers, what that means is a 280x is a better option. http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18573623
