Title: Question about an ASIC miner!
Post by: Skylineman on January 02, 2013, 06:53:57 PM
Hello,

I've read about one of the BTCFPGA mining rigs. (exactly: https://www.bitcoinasic.net/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=50)

It says it can do 36 Gh/s. That means 36864 MH/s?

I don't know if there's a difference between Gh/s and GH/s.

Thanks in advance for your help,
Marcell

No difference.


The correct is Mhash/s | Ghash/s, otherwise can be confused with MegaHertz/s (although the context should prevent)

I see. So around $75 / day with today/s rate, right?

Approximately, but the actual difficulty is irrelevant, there are many threads with difficulty and profit estimates post ASIC  ;)
