If youre looking in that range, I might as well start taking pre-orders for my M.2 accelerator since its ready. It has a 200k LE 7 series chip and 1GB of DDR3 + 4x PCIe (2.0 atm). $329 for the very fast version, $199 for the lower end (100k LE/512MB DDR3). Uses a M.2 M-Key / Nvme slot, or a $10 PCIe adapter.

How can I order this board? Can you share more infos? (Algos, hashrates etc...)

I dont want to be these guys that sell something on a render or photoshopped picture of a prototype, so I need two more weeks to get first production batch in, heatsinks on, etc. but if anyone wasnt to reserve PM me contact info and I will share the info.

Developed these for our own use, but (dig around on the reddit threads and youll see me talking about it pre forms development a few months ago). We originally developed these for ourselves but I think they can help the general community so I will sell near cost.

Im going to refrain from posting final hashrates until they are done on a final production model with the last power/cooling/speedgrade changes weve made.

I'm interested in your "M.2 accelerator" especially given your affordable price range. Might be a good way to get feet wet with FPGAs. I sent you a PM regarding this and i understand you won't be posting figures or other details but the community may also benefit from the following general questions:

1. Is this plug-and-play hardware that already includes software which can easily be configured?
2. What about software updates, can we be assured that you will provide maintain these and not leave us with paperweights?
3. Does it come with warranty?

Still swamped with final mass production preparations (I had to take an emergency detour to secure the necessary memory chips in quantity - DDR lead times have been 6 months for a while now. I took steps to mitigate that months ago but still had to pull some strings.)

1. It is plug in play, in that you can either use the (closed source - sorry :/) bitstreams Ill provide (at the moment Ethash acceleration, Keccak, and CrpytoNight7 acceleration) + miner, or because of the selected chip you can use Vivado Webpack for free to build open RTL and use ccminer or others.
- note I use the term acceleration because this is really built to work in hybrid with existing GPUs and system RAM. It can run stand alone as well, but best to get best returns.

2. You wont be limited to my bitstreams, others can develop for it, and the design was made so it could be used for lots of general purpose acceleration. As far as I am aware there is no lower cost board available with these resources.

3. There will be some warranty, I need to determine what terms. Its prerty hard to intentionally brick a GPU, but it is pretty easy to (un)intentionally brick an FPGA if you load your own software.
