Zcash Equihash mining

[bitstomake]

Hello,

I have been reading about how Zcash's Equihash relies on RAM to mine.

Excuse my ignorance, does this mean its specifically graphics cards RAM that will be used to mine, or the actually RAM within a computer? 

Thanks

GPU's on board ram is utilized as it is much faster.

but don't expect a reliable easy to use miner for sometime

Thought as much, thanks for clarifying.

What are the most cost effective yet powerful graphics cards which would be best for zcash?  Or is it too early to know?
