I play games like Aion etc which are more demanding on full settings, and it's also known that crossfire setups with the 5xxx series in Aion have issues and dont even work, so getting a 6xxx series card is a great single card option for me, and as I play games (and mine during any afk time), I will make profits to buy even another card. This will net ~750Mhash/s, AND double as a sick gaming rig AND ALSO retain a lot of it's value if I ever needed to sell out.
Yesiree. I bought a second 5770 to xfire and it works fabulous (works perfect in all games I've tried). I have aggressive miners, and then mine while gaming with non-aggressive miners. In just two weeks I'm well ahead - even if bitcoins lost all value tomorrow. Winning.
Still can't play Crysis though.

Re: BTC Guild - 0% Fees, Long polling, SSL, JSON API, and more [~900 gH/sec]
My new worker password did NOT work because it was single digit. I guess their system doesn't support single character passes, but their web interface allowed me to create it anyways
Yeah, I noticed that when I first set up too. I was wondering why there was a password anyway, so I used "1." Then I couldn't connect.. had to create a new worker. :/

You're safe. Heat and voltage destroy cards. You may actually increase it's life.

API is currently polling some stats incorrectly. This should be fixed early tomorrow morning.
Thanks, I was wondering about that. As long as I get credit for them Thanks!

Thanks for the info.. I'm going to order another on or two 5770s for mining. Could get 5830s but this way I can crossfire for gaming I get 203MH/s with my current card, as reference.
