As far as my huge amount of memory, I will need that to run numerous instances. One thing I am just checking out is the possibility of adding nodes even if I could virtualize an ASIC chip. They have such low power useage and would take up low CPU and perhaps GPU cycles that if I can virtualize and ASIC instance , then maybe this rig would not be a waste of money.
Now that is comedy gold right there.
Yep, turns out that would be impossible to very hard. So I have stopped looking into that possibility.
But still, the promise of my virtual ASIC chip, as improbable as it is, is still about the same delivery rate as the real ASIC chip makers are doing. THAT is comedy gold there, except that real people are getting really ripped off. I just made a foolish purchase thinking that my knowledge of another field would make me do good in this one and I am not doing too bad. I am not going to clear my initial investment if I keep going as I am going, but others fell for a "Straw to Gold" scheme and while calling me foolish (which I admit has truth to it) they are singing the praises of non-existent hardware that they paid money for.
