I'd like to brainstorm ways of making hashing a more power efficient process. I realize superior cooling helps reduce power consumption on mining rigs, but is there any way to hard code power efficiency into an altcoin? I know the type of cryptology employed in the altcoin makes a big difference, but is there a way to make GPU processing operate at a percentage of its full capacity or will altcoin miners always operate at 100% speed?
My thought was that if you could peg all GPUs mining a specific altcoin at 10% of reference clock speed or at a preset speed that this would cause people to invest in cheaper, simpler and more power efficient GPU rigs since the added benefit of using more expensive GPUs moot. There are probably hardware modding ways to get around this though.
Does anybody have additional thoughts about how to enforce more power efficient mining across new altcoin?
