Post by: _Vince_ on June 24, 2012, 01:30:13 AM Just rename it to BFL And rename the project to BFLcoin. ;)Correct! Title: Re: It's time for an ASIC subforum. Post by: eleuthria on June 24, 2012, 02:28:08 AM It'll be time for an ASIC subforum when an ASIC miner exists. Right now we have the promise of an ASIC [with specs/prices that scream its a scam] and nothing more.

Title: Re: It's (not) time for an ASIC subforum. Post by: goxed on June 24, 2012, 05:59:33 AM Until the first ASIC product is verified, I do not think it's a good idea to create a sub forum.

Post by: eldentyrell on June 24, 2012, 06:59:03 AM It'll be time for an ASIC subforum when an ASIC miner exists. +1 Though even better would be a "speculative hardware" subforum. Anything not available for third-party verification goes there. Title: Re: It's time for an ASIC subforum.

Post by: Dexter770221 on June 24, 2012, 09:29:41 AM Hardware forum is good place for ASIC, there's no need to create next one. GPU is an ASIC so plenty topics already there (here).

Which, coincidentally, is the projected hashing power (in Gh/s) of my prototype quantum computing RNFP* device powered by patented 3HWW** technology. Can't show you the details yet, but I'm happy to accept your preorders. * Reversed Neutron Flow Polarity ** Three Hamsters With Wheels Title: Re: It's time for an ASIC subforum.

I think that this would be the best idea going forward. It would really clean up a lot of the current sub-forums. Take all the 7990 stuff, Lancelot, almost everything BFL related and shove it all there. Title: Re: It's time for an ASIC subforum.

Post by: wogaut on June 24, 2012, 02:42:30 PM Bleh, just rename the FPGA one to FPGA/ASIC. +1Seems if ASIC is taking off with neighborhood of 40 times (according to BFL) the hashing rate of FPGA, whenever that happens, we just have more ASIC and fewer FPGA posts here. Title: Re: It's time for an ASIC subforum. Post by: wogaut on June 24, 2012, 02:45:52 PM Just rename it to BFL And rename the project to BFLcoin. ;)That's what they have to be careful about, when throwing a large load of ASIC power on the market. or we'll have BFLcoin and OpenCoin...

Title: Re: It's (not) time for an ASIC subforum. Post by: Cablez on June 24, 2012, 05:12:28 PM Yes, but it is still not a shipping product yet.

Anything not available for third-party verification goes there. Having no proof of said hardware to be real does not make it speculation. The claims are real, feasibility ?, development intent, real or fake can be discussed either way. Title: Re: It's (not) time for an ASIC subforum.
