I wanted to insert the picture here, but I kept getting "Invalid url" even though it's an http:// link to the image. I also tried removing the http:// part.

That is about $20000 in 5770's alone...the right side pile only has about 40-45 of them.
I'd say thats about 9 GHash/sec in the right pile there, probably about 60-70 GHash/sec for the whole lot.

Whoever bought that is looking at about one solve per day and a half to two, so about 200 bitcoins per week...or about $3700 profit in one week after utilites...still would take them three months or so to break even, even with the absurd income.

if the market lasts for more than 3 months however he is going to be some type of rich...

Now we all know why we can't find any hardware for decent prices anymore. That guy bought them all up.

I would be more interested in what Chinese supercomputer with dual 5970s in each node can do! :D

If beepbeep2's numbers are right (60-70Ghash/s), he can probably do 50BTC (1 block per day) per day with solo mining. That is about $30000 a month before electricity costs

I saw that and wondered the same thing.

Woah. Between farms like that and the hundreds of gamers joining the BTC mining effort it is no wonder the difficulty is spiking so high. Time to move on to the next wave.. ASIC/FPGA mining :D
