What kind of damage can one do with this card?

Seems like Zombie has/had one of these. Thinking they do around 600k/day? Don't recall exactly.

Nope. I have the dual 560 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130737).

Amazon has used versions of these for 260 dollars and eligible for prime! Does this seem like a good deal?

Z what kind of output is this capable of? Are there any issues keeping this dual gpu loaded and working on GPU grid, Donate or Dirt?

No idea really. I never benchmarked it. It is running the non-BOINC sieving for PG right now. The tasks finish up some time Sunday. I'll put it on distrrtgen for a few days, so you can see the performance.

Thanks Z. I can't remember where that GPU benchmarking link is in the forums.

[kaptainkarl1]

Anyone know the link to the site with the spreadsheet with GPUs and their output? Seems like it was in here somewhere just remember where it came up last.

I had 6 people on the boat this weekend and couldn't get it up on plane. That was with a prop that the minimum pitch prop I can find for the motor. Looks like I need a motor upgrade (from 90hp to 150hp is my goal) but that's after the master bath upgrade is done and paid for. Then I can start rebuilding the farm's aging GPUs. Then again, maybe I can write it off as a business expense.....

Thinking outside the box. :p

Was the bottom clean? How big is the boat. 90 to 115 would probably do the trick. 90 to 150 and your ass end is gonna be down and over powering leads to other unwanted issues instability can be one (think chine walking). Good luck!

Sorry it took so long, but I just now put it on distrrtgen. Here is the link:

It also has a 580 in slot 1 running 6 POEM tasks. But I think I gave it enough CPU head room to make that a non-issue. Distrrtgen is running at 98-99%.
