So, when it comes to Ethash, the Acorn will increase Nvidia's UP TO 10%, and AMD's UP TO 15%. And you need minimum 1 acorn per 4 GPU's, so best case scenario is you're getting about $0.45 per day boost. the Cle-101 is $200, so it'll take over 400 days for ROI.
Am I missing something?
I know it may save some energy, but most people run at 75% TDP anyway.
Agreed.
Most of the suggested ideal configurations are 1:1, that adds a hefty cost overhead to a GPU.
There are too many unknowns in the air right now, I'm not saying this is an scam, at all, but SQRL is not being that straightforward or clear with the performance numbers for a product that is supposed to be shipping right now. Standalone mining is another big question mark, if viable at all.
Given how messy the ordering process is at this point, a wait and see attitude is best.
