Can you share some more information with us? Hashing speed, watt usage, estimated price, drivers etc? It would be nice, if it will turn into a "product" which is able to sell. But really nice work anyway.

I assume Hashing speed and watt usage will be very similar to ztex 1.15y since its the same IC. Very small variations between different implementations of LX150

That's correct. The current fpgaminer implementation is only at 180MHz but 200 should be reachable with some Xilinx tool massaging.
Most LX150 will overclock above 200MHz on this board giving a total hashrate above 800MH/s even with the included bitstream.

The software controllable VCCint voltage for the FPGAs might allow this to be increased even further, as you can easily just run the chips at 1.28V Smiley
(Or at lower voltages to increase power efficiency.)
