Why on earth anyone would recommend GPU over ASIC is beyond me,

N-adaptive, X11, keccack, sha3, and a few more other types of scrypt are a start. N- adaptive got me 12 btc in 5 days worth of mining a certain coin on only 6MH scrypt rig(n-adaptive 2666MH)
With the 750ti doing 300kh for only 60w and the new 880's coming out from nvidia soon and producing over 1MH per card for around 220w why on earth wouldn't you consider a graphic card?
You are thinking just standard old scrypt coins are the only coins to mine? These gridseeds and new knc miners are only good for coins like doge, ltc and the other types of standard scrypt, GPU's on the other hand will do all and have 0 restrictions unlike the asics which have no resale value and are scrypt specific.

Anyway I am done trying to educate you guys and hope in future you actually take some time and do some research before you go around with your doom and gloom attitude towards GPU mining.

By all means carry on saying GPU's are a waste of time though as it will keep my difficulty levels down while you all just mine standard scrypt.

I agree, you're absolutely right we've lost all the context because you weren't at the meeting.

We where talking about scrypt based coins and mining equipment for newbies. GPU rigs for people with only basic levels of understanding of computers can leave them feeling frustrated.

I had no intention of starting an argument especially when I agree with what you're saying.
