From what I've heard the hashrate will be combined with the price, it barely competes with an optimized rig, I mean it's nothing like other ASICs, which I guess makes sense since Ethereum relies on memory speed, and using that massive amount of DDR3 doesn't seem very cost effective (I mean, why didn't they use DDR4)
Also the only confirmed Eth ASIC I've seen is really lackluster
https://www.eastshore.xyz/shop/ethereum-miner-geass-198mh-asic-miner-for-ether-mining/That is NOT an ASIC rig, that is a GPU rig using "laptop" type GPUs.
They have had that GPU rig you talk about out on the Chinese site for more than 6 months, I think it was...this is really an ASIC from what I've heard....
I've also heard that the ram needed for this puppy to work, even as an ASIC is huge..thus around a 12k price tag..
with the price and possibility of a quick ETH fork looks beyond dangerous to dive in on
and if it is a GPU rig like the Chinese ones they have been pushing....it is cheaper now and better to make a NVIDIA rig..again from what I'm told
I don't GPU mine
anyway, my 2 bits worth
