i doubt there are fpga for x13 already, come on it would be insane..., the x13 mania just started two days ago
one 280x can do 2.5M on x13, reaching 50 giga with those cards is not that crazy as you think
50 giga are like 20k 280x, 200 big farmers with 100 cards each is quite easy to achieve
the real problem are those big farms, that keeps adding gpu because they can make roi for each new rig very fast
I'm 99.99% sure there are bitstreams for FPGA's already (not ASICs!) as there were already some for X11.. X13 is nothing more than X11 plus two algo's, MaruCoin is quite old already, so the devs had plenty of time rewriting the bistream.
In my opinion there is no FPGA on X13 atm. There wasn't a succesful coin yet. But soon there will be FPGA for all algos for GPU.
what gpu hardware or FGPA can mine 4 or 6 GH/s on x13 coins?
ok someone clue me in where are these new GPU farms comming from ? I though the scrypt price crash and summer time heating costs would force alot out of the GPU game and with X13 you cant even mine with Nvida cards yet.
These have to be botnets or huge cpu farms or something ?
Id bet anything it's the same x11 FPGA farms. You really think x13 has confounded these guys? It was only a matter of time.
Maybe GPU coins should use that momentum PoW whatever like PTS and NRS. As far as I know, that is still GPU/CPU only.
X13 is dead for "normal" miners already.. unfortunately...
so x11 and x13 is dead for gpu but not for FPGA mining. is that correct?
