Re: [Poll] What algo will be GPU mined after ASIC's fully take over Scrypt mining.
Someone on the french forum about mining i come from run some tests with a simple rig setup, with 2 x R9 280X
All tests ran with the same frequency etc..
Each algo can be optimized, but for comparison, it's good.
Power at the wall:
Result : Groestl is the most gpu friendly algo, for power, temp and noise, even better than X11

I'd like to see how fugue compares to groestl. My card runs just as cold as X11 when mining fugue, so I think it would definitely be a competitor on that list. I don't mine fugue any more though. Coin seems to be dying. The dev likes to take a "hands off approach to marketing" - and that's a direct quote!
Id like to see how hefty1 with heavy coin goes. My setup is whisper quiet when mining heavy (x11 also the same). i got 86 mh's with 4 x 280x
