Title: FPGA vs GPU Post by: ricardo07 on May 29, 2014, 10:11:23 PM Hello, I have some questions about Hardware to mining SCRYPT COINS, Mining with FPGA (ztex usb-fpga module 1.15y) or CPU+GPU(AMD), if is possible to show the reasons for the choice (MH/s; KH/s; energy consumption).
Title: Re: FPGA vs GPU Post by: ChekaZ on May 30, 2014, 02:12:28 PM FPGA is way more power efficient than GPU/CPU, but the initial costs may be higher.
Anyway I wouldnt mine with GPU/CPU/FPGA right now, better go for an ASIC. Title: Re: FPGA vs GPU Post by: ricardo07 on May 30, 2014, 02:28:36 PM thanks ChekaZ, but asic dont mining Scrypt coin
Title: Re: FPGA vs GPU Post by: xingqiaoyin on May 30, 2014, 03:14:13 PM thanks ChekaZ, but asic dont mining Scrypt coin Where have you been ? Google this innosilicon a2. Title: Re: FPGA vs GPU Post by: ricardo07 on May 30, 2014, 04:17:22 PM thanks xingqiaoyin, another question, the asic Bitmain Antminer S1 that mineram bitcoin (SHA256) can mine other coins that use the same algorithm( sha256)? ASIC that this mining litecoin (Scrypt) can mine other coins type Scrypt
