It's time, boys and girls, to box up your graphics cards and put them up for sale before the mad rush as Ethereum (and all Ethash coin) GPU mining is about to come to an end.

"Ethereum ASIC chips will enter mass production stage in February 2018 by TSMC’s 28nm process. The F3 miner is expected to hit the market in Q2 or Q3 2018."

Reddit chatter saying that it will be roughly the same as building a rig, so 180MH/s for about $2500.  That's what the performance of this asic will be.

That's what I was thinking, if it's going to cost just as much to buy one of these F3 miners as it is to build a rig then there is not need to worry.
In fact a GPU rig is better as you can at least sell, or reuse, all the bits once you've finished with it.
