You would have been so much better off putting that $15k into buyitnow ASICs or even FPGAs. You're going to have to power and cool 8KW of cards, and with the amount of planning demonstrated so far its going to go terribly wrong Sad

My 26GH system cost the equivalent FIAT today of about $11k, only generates 250W of heat and
 sits on my windowsill.

Which machine do you have that can have 26 gh/s on 250w.

2x ASIC blades.

hes probably talking about 250w of excess heat, not wall power usage. I just dropped $500 to get another gighash/megahash on some mid level cards. I think what the other poster said, wait for BFL to catch up and buy one of their ASICs.

A large GPU farm is risky in the BTC world.. LTC would be more realistic.

No, 260W from the wall [230V]. Going down to 20GH I can get power down to 160ish

Oh. You have won 2 AsicMiner Blades on the auction an have oc´ed them.
Do they use about 130 watts per Blade?
