I do not understand why you could not just use the internal memory located inside the FPGA. Many new 16nm Fpga has upwards of 75 megabyte of memory. I would think having 37 really fast cores would be better than trying to use slow external ram.

Anyways, I found a reddit post of someone who supposedly did 20 kh/s on an monero FPGA miner. https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/7s9zwe/fpga_mining/

Could you give a link to the XMR V7 discussion?

John, I will try to build Cryptonight and equihash in FPGA. The main question is to choose most profitable system architecture. But since it is my hobby, no schedule of the project.

Guys, FPGA are profitable, 1 to 6 month ROI, CR, whatever.

I can not write PM right now because of forum's limitation, will solve it later.

How does one even build an FPGA for mining? Do you like buy some random high tier FPGA and write your own code (bitstream) for it? I'm actually really interested in this
