Re: Stratix-5 A7 or D5 project 01.05.2013 update

[funnow]

Virtex-7 I read that has potential of 1600mhash/s, but I don't know the hashrate of Stratix-5.

I could get both chips for low price.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I think only few ppl have experience with both of these FPGAs.

Thanks a lot for your answer
Probably I will use Kintex-7 > I'm waiting for a price for 500-1000 pcs> anybody done a bitstream?

An update as soon I get the price.

Fire up ISE and compile the open source Bitcoin miner for them and see what is has to say for timings/usage. See https://github.com/progranism/Open-Source-FPGA-Bitcoin-Miner

Sorry I'm not a programmer, so in this part I will need a help

Here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176239.msg1842040#msg1842040 fpgaminer achieved 400MH/s with XC7K325T part. It's 1k$ part. There's a chance that he will get closer to 1GH/s. Worth it?

[pheaonix]

let us know they price, i wouldn't mind paying 120% plus shipping depending on price

I will probably go for 1000+ to reduce price.

1Gh/S would be nice. Anyone knows how much W is consuming??

Thanks for your help.

I'd want closer to 2GH for a $1k part to even bother at this stage of the game really. I'm interested in the price too though.

[funnow]

Hm do you think is posseble go more than 1Gh/s.

And because my idea is something like BTC & LTC mining, I will probably need a team, but first I have to get the price.

So any helper for 1Gb/S bitstream or higher?

A few hundred dollar video card will give you that kind of hash rate, obviously it will chew a lot more power but still.  FPGA chips seem overpriced, probably not enough competition.

The discussion is about FPGA, not video cards. So please no off topic posts.

Seems I can get better price for Stratix V A7 or D5. So I will need help for one of this chip to get maximum hashrate. Any idea?

Try the open source cyclone bitstream? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=9047.0) or ask for a modified TML:

Tyger thanks a lot, is a virtual beer enough for your help?

[Tyger]

Had the same idea a while ago, did some research, but fpga does not intrest me that much anymore.

The world is an expensive place, saying thanks is enough for me.

[funnow]

If I only could know the hashrate of Stratix-V A7 or D5 I could write more details about my project.

Thanks in advance for your help.

How low are you talking per-chip that you can get?

[funnow]

I'm still negotiating about the price, but now I need information about Stratix V A7 or D5 hasrate and power usage. If anyone has any information It would be great.
Those are only a pre development questions.
