who knows how many alt coins there are now?

im glad found your problem

you are in the minority if you are asking this question

i need a company for this too. watching........

Do you still have the amazon card?

Do you still have it?

Do you still have it?

Pm'd

Sorry. I have an offer for more than that. I'm still accepting other offers. 

Bump!

We have 30 hours left to reach the goal of $750,000. If we do not then the project will NOT be funded at all. Even though it can't mine, it's only $99 and way more powerful than a normal PC. Please dig deep and support this project!

Photos have been posted!

Ok, so it won't mine. But it could handle running a mining rig.

It runs Ubuntu, so I have to assume that it will mine. The 64-core version of the Parallella computer would deliver over 90 GFLOPS of performance and would have the the horse power comparable to a theoretical 45 GHz CPU [64 CPU cores * 700MHz] on a board the size of a credit card while consuming only 5 Watts under typical work loads. For certain applications, this would provide raw performance than a high end server costing thousands of dollars and consuming 400W. You don't have anything to loose for only $100 for the 16 core board.

This is a project on kickstarter that will be ending on Saturday Oct 27, 6:00pm EDT.

Project Goals

Making parallel computing easy to use has been described as "a problem as hard as any that computer science has faced". With such a big challenge ahead, we need to make sure that every programmer has access to cheap and open parallel hardware and development tools. Inspired by great hardware communities like Raspberry Pi and Arduino, we see a critical need for a truly open, high-performance computing platform that will close the knowledge gap in parallel programing. The goal of the Parallella project is to democratize access to parallel computing. If we can pull this off, who knows what kind of breakthrough applications could arise?  Maybe some of them will even change the world in some small but positive way.

The Parallella Computing Platform

To make parallel computing ubiquitous, developers need access to a platform that is affordable, open, and easy to use. The goal of the Parallella project is to provide such a platform! The Parallella platform will be built on the following principles:

Open Access: Absolutely no NDAs or special access needed! All architecture and SDK documents will be published on the web as soon as the Kickstarter project is funded.
Open Source: The Parallella platform will be based on free open source development tools and libraries. All board design files will be provided as open source once the Parallella boards are released.
Affordability: Hardware costs and SDK costs have always been a huge barrier to entry for developers looking to develop high performance applications. Our goal is to bring the Parallella high performance computer cost below $100, making it an affordable platform for all.
The Parallella platform is based on the Epiphany multicore chips developed by Adapteva over the last 4 years and field tested since May 2011. The Epiphany chips consists of a scalable array of simple RISC processors programmable in C/C++ connected together with a fast on chip network within a single shared memory architecture.

The Team Behind Parallella

The Parallella project is being launched by Adapteva, a semiconductor startup company founded in 2008. The core development team consists of Andreas Olofsson, Roman Trogan, and Yaniv Sapir, each with between 10 and 20 years of industry experience. The team has a strong reputation of executing on aggressive goals on a shoestring budget. Our latest Epiphany-IV processor was designed in a leading edge 28nm process and started sampling in July, demonstrating 50 GFLOPS/Watt.  To put this in perspective, consider that the Epiphany energy efficiency specs are within striking distance of the 2018 goals set by DARPA for the high profile Exascale supercomputing project.

I have not measured the power usage on the single. But what I have noticed is when my room is 75+ the hash rate will be around 800. If I cool my room below 60 the hash rate will climb to around 900 and sometimes it will jump to 1000 for 10-15min then fall back down to 900 for 30-45min. I will post pics tomorrow.
