1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Asic miner for Ethereum... why not ? on: August 14, 2017, 04:16:54 AM
There will be no ASIC for Ethereum because it is a memory-intensive algorithm rather than a CPU intensive one (GPUs are just many CPUs plugged together). So there will never be one for it.

I do not think so, many advanced mining rigs has already done, using GPU and memory as in video cards. I googled "ethereum asics" and found devices like this one https://www.nvminer.com , they call it an asic, but it still use NVidia GPUs. however, the hashrate and power consumption are more profitable, than graphic cards.
