Guys, I would like to buy a fpga board for testing and learning the fpga basics.
Do you think this will be ok ?

What hash rate would I get from it?
Will your miner work with this chip (XC6SLX25)?
Will I run it via usb or jtag ?

Thanks !



check cablesaurus.com they have a pre order going for fpga miner boards that do 100-200 mh/s for cheaper than most dev fpgas.
