Pretty cool?

Yeah, definitely when you know it's going POS.

So for those buying (if it's real), another awesome heater for the winter :p

Good luck though!

800w? pointless a rig with 480 can do much better than that at the same speed

And probably cheaper as well :p

Bullshit, that's not an ethereum ASIC.

And you can sell RX 480 for 75% of their price

Does it look cool?  Sure... Is the power consumption good?  Absolutely.  But all of this is irrelevant unless the price makes it attractive.  If it's $5k, who cares, you'll sell a couple to people with more money than brains...  If it's in the $1-2k range, then it's interesting... If it's more, then the gamble is much higher especially considering PoS and that you have more than likely a boat anchor at that point.  If GPU mining becomes unprofitable, I can sell my cards to gamers - whereas this one doesn't give me THAT much better performance, and has zero secondary market beyond mining.

If it is real it defeats the purpose of eth coins.

And it will kill off the game.

800 watts and 200 mh is better then rx 480 as they are 590 watts and 100 mh.

But if I made them. I would not sell them I would mine.

Thanks for the heads up .

I will stop adding to my small farm.

590w for 100MH seems bad, i know that the 1070 on linux can do 900w 200MH

in any case i would never buy an asic even if it was more convenient than gpu

this because its resale value is a joke, you will end up with a useless ornament...certainly good for accumulating dust
