Right now the total network hash rate is about 25 TH/s. When the ASIC miners hit the scene it will go up to 250 TH/s, 500 TH/s or maybe even 1,000 TH/s. the difficulty will go higher and inversely your potential to earn will go down by the same factor as the difficulty goes up.

I explained it for another user here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=139332.0

I have also covered some of this on my blog : See signature.

As long as you have the GPU use it for now. Just know that in the near future things are going to change. If you ask when, no one can tell you. Although supposedly one of the companies started shipping last week.

Thanks for the info man! Ill check out ur blog and ur thread momentarily!

A 7970 can run you anywhere from 625 to 925 MH/s which at the current rate contribution/pool rate)*3600 or 625/25,000,000*3600 = 0.093 BTC a day Which means you'll get roughly 2.81BTC every 30 days.

Correct me if I am wrong!

As right as you may be, my system simply does NOT pull that off. its static around ~250 mhps

Not sure what thats about, fresh restart, no startup items, nothing running. The rest of my computer im pretty sure is just as good as the 7970, so, yeah im not sure.
