    CPU mining still have any value?

    been mining some altcoins lately and I was wondering if there is any way I could put a 4p g34 (6172) to use mining xpm or pts or something else. Are any of these still profitable? thanks in advance

    I've been having some issues with some very hot equipment and I was thinking about rigging some fans up to an old PSU I have lying around using the paper clip method. Gonna be using 4x120mm fans, nothing else. I have two questions for you guys: Since there will be so little draw, does that...

    Running on fumes

    well, as some of you may have noticed (but probably not), my ppd is nothing like what it used to be a month or so ago. used to have a really nice farm running at my parents house, but those days are no more. The next time i am there, i'm selling about 3/4 of the farm, and possibly putting 1 or 2...

    evga 6800gt problems

    i have a 6800gt that isnt exactly performing as i'd like it to. at stock speeds it locks up after about 30 seconds of any newer game (HL2, farcry, etc). the card idles at 53c so i'd think it wouldnt be an overheating problem... that is until i underclocked it to 310/900. at these speeds the card...

    Asus PC-DL problem

    well my problem is somewhat simple: the thing just doesnt turn on. Its not on warranty anymore so that isnt an option. now for the details... when i turn on the power supply, the ram led comes on just as normal. when i short the power jumpers nothing happens; no fans or anything. ive tried 2...

    Just an observation

    i was looking at some of the stats for the big 3 (H, OCAU, OC.com) and one thing seemed a bit odd to me: OCAU has 11 people producing 4k+ ppd, OC.com has 9, but the H only has 2 (FLECOM and pageian). i dunno if this really means anything but it does make me wonder... where are our big producers...
