  Hi everyone,

  Now that some detail is shed on the upcoming Titan, and YES, even though AMD is still far better per dollar, does anyone forsee being able to mine on this card somewhat well?

  Since it sounds like FP64 is unlockable and offers 1/3 FP32 K20 performance, but at reduced clockrates, is there anything how Bitcoin processes data that would make this a computing monster, or are the new efficiencies not used in the calculations that mining does?

  While sure, the cost certainly doesn't make this anyone's first choice of card, for anyone wanting to crank out some MHes with it, I'm guessing it'd actually hash well, or am I mistaken.

  Sure, ASICs will make GPUs obselete in a few weeks to let's say a month but in the meantime, could Nvidia actually have a decent mining card?
 

Oh Loaded, who art up in Mt. Gox, hallowed be thy name!  Thy dollars rain, thy will be done, on BTCUSD.  Give us this day our daily 10% 30%, and forgive the bears, as we have bought their bitcoins.  And lead us into quadruple digits

bitcoin mining doesn't use FPUs at all, it's straight integer/logic ops

Sadly not, it has very high hasrate for a nVidia card, but still much lower than AMD cards, and considering its 3x the price of a 7970 and 1/3 of the power, no one in their right mind would buy one for mining.

312 ghash on a video card? Thats 5 times better than any ASIC.

Do you have proof? pics? screenshots? Source?

See attached for Screen shots of TITAN



System contains 18,688 nodes, with each holding a 16-core AMD Opteron 6274 processor and an NVIDIA Tesla K20.  Hash rate = 18,688 x ~160 m/hz = ~312 g/hz (then add in those 6274s)


For the Stand alone card Based off of titan (the K20 Chip not on the Tesla)  http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-titan-performance-review,3442-10.html
