Hi All,

I want to sell my dual 5870 card AKA Radeon 5970.  It is a great miner!  I'm getting out of mining completely.

5970 - $300 or best offer takes it.  Shipping within Canada and the continental US included.


Payment accepted in bitcoins at the current market rate.

I'm happy to do a local drop off in Vancouver in person.  Also I can ship and I have an ebay profile with the same username with positive ratings. 

If you're not in Vancouver and would like to buy I can put them on Ebay.  If you're in Vancouver, just email me.

Would $550 for the pair be reasonable?

I'll accept $550 for them.

[WTS] 2 Radeon 5870 video cards

I am selling two Radeon 5870s because I managed to buy 2 5970s to replace them.

My craigslist ad is here.  I would prefer a local sale but I am willing to ship.

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/sys/2500929884.html

I have the original boxes they came in.


Will accept BTC for the cards at the higher of current spot price for dollars or 7 day moving average of BTC per $.

Example.  7 day moving average is $13 and current spot price is $12.  I will accept BTC for the cards at $12 per BTC.

Cash in person is preferred.

I'd like to set this up to manage a mining for computers I have in different locations, but I am hesitant because of reports by some users of stale shares.

Thank you so very much cdhowie for even releasing what looks like an amazing piece of software.


Btw if I have access to computers at school and they are behind a firewall and so cannot mine, can I use this software to get around that?

I am registered there and leave my computer on the channel although I am only on for an hour every other day.  Please let me know when you'd like to trade and we'll trade at spot at MtGox in CAD (just refresh the link above for my sell price).

I'm in the channel for the next 2 hours.

Want to sell 350 BTC for Canadian Dollars
by
datathe1st
on 26/04/2011, 08:09:20 UTC
Hello.

I'd like to sell my bitcoins quickly and effortlessly for Canadian dollars.

I see no easy way to do that currently.  I sent this message to themadhatter@i2pmail.org so lets see if he responds.

In the meanwhile could anyone help me please?

I have 350 bitcoins mined so far and I'll gladly sell them for CAD $500 cash.  Basically I want to get back the money I invested in my graphics cards which makes them free after electricity costs and from now on in all bitcoins will be pure profit! YAY! Cheesy

I don't really need anonymity so I can give you lots of information for you to verify who I am and that I am not a scammer, etc.

I will accept payment by

1) PayPal (in Canadian dollars only because PayPal is a ripoff for currency conversions) and as a personal payment type other so there are no fees to receive.
2) Direct deposit into my Royal Bank of Canada account.

Is there a bitcoin escrow service that we could use?

Please let me know if anyone is interested.

Thanks,

datathe1st

Slush - 2% commission = around 50 BTC per day, whereas paying for a dedicated server only costs around 100 BTC per MONTH.
[Tycho] - 3% commission, but he supports long polling and you do have the option of being paid immediately instead of waiting for 120 confirmations.
Geebus - 0% commission + long polling support - Really everyone should be on here pushing the average work time down and making it the best of the three pools.

Is there something I'm missing?

I've been coding since I was 11, but I don't think it's fair to rag on people who don't know what 7z is or don't even understand what compression means.

We should be encouraging everyone to use bitcoin and mine bitcoins even if they are "n00bz".

Ideally, the gui miner can be merged with the official client. 

Ideally the official client will support encrypted wallets out of the box.

Ideally anyone can download an exe and be up and running in minutes.  Ideally.  Until then let's try to do everything we can to help new users out.  Just saying.



When you got teased in school for playing video games, or programming or playing magic the gathering it was bullying, but now we find it funny to make fun of people online.  We should be better nerds.


But seriously kid, has your dad given you permission to use his computer?    Tongue

Slush, last night my account showed 9.9 BTC confirmed and unconfirmed.  Now it shows only 9.34

How is this possible?


Also last night I had around 0.6 BTC confirmed.  Now it is 0.00358097 BTC


What is going on?  Huh



I think I get it.  Once paid out they get removed from my confirmed amount.  Ahh.  Sorry about that Cheesy


Ooookay new problem - Problem communicating with bitcoin RPC... Huh

Hey Slush.  Would you consider charging only a 1% commission out of the goodness of your heart?

Please could someone give me some advice on how to mine while playing games?

I want my GPU usage to be at 100% at all times but with priority given to the video game.

PLEASE HELP!

I've tried setting -f 120 but that doesn't help.

Thank you.

A combination which will eventually lead to problems.


Well I've been playing dragon age 2 for several hours now with both miners running on a crossfire 5870 setup.

I go from 0.65 Gh/s to 0.45 Gh/s while playing the game, but the frame rate is approx 20 fps.  If I disable one miner in crossfire mode my rate goes down to 0.33 Gh/s but still get 20 fps.

I tried disabling crossfire to have one gpu for the game and one for the miner, however, I want to be able to use the other gpu when I spend 10 minutes looking at a menu or doing something else non gpu intensive.

This game is not using a lot of my open

Try this -v -w128 -f1 for miner.

That increases the priority of mining.  I want to decrease its priority.

What's the best version for dual 5970 with CCC Version 10.10?

I believe stream 2.2 is the best.
