2) There's no algo that exists which would be faster on a gpu than a FPGA. The GPU is instruction set based and does have some features in silicon beyond those instruction sets. The problem coin devs have is there's really no way to make an algo that is faster on gpu than fpga. The FPGA are specially suited for this purpose and while there are some limitations with the current generation of cards; in the future, it's not going to be a problem.

As an EE and also from someone who is also pro-FPGA, I would caution you from making such blanket claims, they always end up being 100% false. There is no need to hype up FPGAs, they speak for themselves when properly matched for a specific use case.

Missing from the claim is: Which FPGA, which GPU, testing methodology used, GPU software used, FPGA bitstream used, etc.

So are you saying that you know of an algo that would be mined faster on a GPU compared to an ASIC? Missing here would be that algo's name.

You may be just making sure everything is technically correct but you seem to be losing sight of the forest by focusing too much single tree (a.k.a. you've got your head up your a$$). Nobody needs a goody2shoes or a bythebookretard. Off topic already but did you get bullied in school?

Thank you anyway for clearing that up. Grin
