Post your PPD rates !!

I would say 2 safely, possibly 3. I cant recall. I think the gts 250 requires a minumum of 500w, but I could have my info incorrect. From what I gather a gts 250 gets on avg approx 5500-5800 ppd. a gts 260 (216) will yield approx 1k ppd more for now about $50 or less in cost compared to a gts 250. Its a tough call. I originally started with a gts 250 cause I got it for $110 while the gtx 260s were still 180-200, but I stepped it up to a gtx 275. now you can get the gtx 260's for $150 ish I believe, so it could possibly be worth the extr dough; your call. I think the gts 250 will save you some on electricity compared to a gtx 260, but not sure by how much.

I was in the same delima as you. Started off with 1 gts 250 and a 9800gt. now I am running 3 gtx 275's 1 more coming in tomorrow and GTX 260 192 going out next week to be replaced with yet another gtx 275.

I can however tell you that the gts 250 get approx 1k ppd more than a 9800gt, and gtx 260 get approx 1k more ppd than the 250. basically from my findings, each step up in a card yields approx 1kppd. hope this helps

EDIT: looks like my 9800gt gets approx 4700 ppd, gts 250 got avg 5700 ppd, my gtx 260 192 sucks and gets avg of approx 6200 ppd, and my gtx 275 are getting avg of 8800 or more ppd. This is according to fahmon. I have hand calculated close to 40k ppd in a 24 hour period with my 3 gtx 275's, gtx 160 192, and 9800gt.

My 9800gt gets 2-300 less ppd on my old amd system compared to my q9550 according to fahmon.
