if you don't see that you still get a significantly higher hash rate with GPU for the price of the ASIC Scrypt I don't know what to say.
Power usage savings of even 1k watts, is minimal considering the much higher hash output.
Do the math please, then really let it sink in.
I appreciate your condescension. Let me reciprocate it.
The cost of the 3MH/s model is 11190 Chinese Yuan, or $1849.19 according to the supplier’s website.
That is currently $0.61/kH
Let’s just say you can get 280X’s left and right for $300 because you are a fucking wicked smooth barterer. You also get 800kH/s on each card because you are a configuration specialist. So just for the cards, you are paying $0.375/kH. Let’s not even factor in electricity or other components you need for your rig as we all have closets full of spare computer parts to build endless rigs. You are getting a 40% discount on hashing power with GPUs compared to an ASIC.
Thankfully, you don’t have to worry about ASICs becoming more powerful and more affordable. That never happened with Bitcoin right? That’s why after ASICs came out last year, they were continually outperformed by GPUs. Oh what’s that? That shit didn’t happen? No fucking shit dumbass.
If there is a chip that is producing 300kH/s right now, then there will be a Scrypt ASIC chip
this year that will make GPU mining ineffective for Scrypt just as last year it became ineffective for SHA256.
You can have this lesson for free. Next time you think your math is great, you should think a little more progressively and stop being short-sighted.
