i would love to try one of these cards at least at some point. If a group buy goes through, and I have the ability to put it, it would be nice to be able to =)
looking at this baikal cryptonight asic coming out; it makes sense...
It just starts with a keccack hash, and then a rather basic algorythm is done with ~2Mb of memory space. I was thinking of working with my father to find an FPGA that would fit the bill for all of these operations. The way its calculated, I can see how it would be such low power with an FPGA.
With all the ASICS coming on scene how can one logically even think of buying a gpu? This constant forking wont happen forever. ESP on a chain with any value(if one expects it to keep value). Surely everyone in this thread realizes gpu mining is being rekt by the Chinese asic manufacturers. Right?
