Title: Minning with Silicon Graphics Onyx2 Post by: BitcoinPappi on June 29, 2011, 08:37:33 PM A friend told me that he has a silicon Graphics Onyx2 laying around. How efficient would you think this machine would be for minning provided electricity is
free any estimates hash rates hxxp://www.futuretech.blinkenlights.nl/onyx2/tech_specs.html Title: Re: Minning with Silicon Graphics Onyx2 Post by: Jack of Diamonds on June 29, 2011, 08:46:56 PM Maybe 50 hash/s (or 0.05khash/s) if you program an OpenCL wrapper for the drivers.
In other words it isn't suitable for mining. Title: Re: Minning with Silicon Graphics Onyx2 Post by: BitcoinPappi on June 29, 2011, 09:15:43 PM Ahh man :( bummer . Thanks for the reply
