I have two 4x5830 rigs, both on Corair 750w PSUs, they each pull about 750w with a Kill-a-watt meter. I've been running them like this for about a month, no issues.
Started with my 6870 in my main PC, which I was wanting to upgrade anyway. So i got two 6950s. Then picked up 4x5830s when they came in stock. And about two weeks ago, picked up another 4x5830 setup.
So, I started with about 300mhash, now am at about 3200 mhash
Same, I deposited 1btc, it has 10 confirmations now and it does not show up on the site.

Fresh Ubuntu 11.04 install, using the Stream 2.1 drivers and Poclbm. I followed the guide in the hardware forums on installing all the software on Ubuntu Natty.
.poclbm.py returns:
Code:
No device specified or device not found, use -d to specify one of the following
When I try to start poclbm and connect to my pool, I get this:
Code:
root@sethmonix2:/home/nix2/poclbm# ./poclbm.py -d1 --host=arsbitcoin.com --port= 8344 --user=user --pass=pass --worksize=128 --vectors Usage: poclbm.py [OPTION]... SERVER[#tag]... SERVER is one or more [http[s]://]user:pass@host:port (required) [#tag] is a per SERVER user friendly name displayed in stats (optional)
This is the same line I use on my other machines, what gives?
Was the line I was using for an older version of poclbm?

Running my unlocked shader 6950s right now at core 900/mem 500 in an open case at 61C and 64C @ ~66% fan speed. Only additional cooling is two 120mm fans sitting on top of the two cards.
Cool, I will have two setups of 4 5830s on Corsair 750psu, was worried that I would be getting close to the limit of my psu. Should be good

You can make one like mine out of 80/20 Aluminum for probably under $200 pretty easily, which compared to the one the OP linked, would be a deal as mine can hold two systems. I am going to modify it tonight to have the cards spaced and mounted off the motherboard.
I made two deposits today and they both showed up after 1 confirmation, the third time I made a deposit, I got nothing in my account. The deposit now has 4 confirmations. Any help?
Of course, but you'll have to give me a whole lot more detail... by PM if you wish... let me know your username and/or deposit address.
Thanks. "Issue" resolved

Just made a bench case out of some spare parts from this and some plexi. Going to order a some more 80/20 so I can make the legs taller and make some sort of brackets so I can use the pci riser cables and run 4 5830s per motherboard.
I was going to order the MyOpenPC Domo PCI stackable cases, but they are out of stock until July. You can get this 80/20 aluminum extrusion on eBay and Amazon, but with all the brackets and bolts, it isn't the cheapest.
