The Quad V7 TAI Logic Module can hold designs up to 80M ASIC gates with four Xilinx Vitex-7 2000T FPGA devices and has two on-board DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets and two on-board DDR2 SO-DIMM sockets to meet a variety of high-speed memory applications. The Quad V7 TAI Logic Module supports 48 channels of high speed Gigabit transceivers capable of running up to 10Gbps for a variety of high-speed interfaces such as PCIe, SATA and XAUI. In addition to our existing USB2.0 port for our popular runtime software features such as FPGA download, programmable clock generation and self-test, the new Quad V7 TAI Logic Module now supports these runtime features through Ethernet cable so you can control your FPGA hardware remotely. S2C has also added a number of new runtime features such as I/O voltage setting and clock frequency read back through software control.

Of course I couldnt find any prices on them but would guess a few thousand or even more, the unique thing is that they can easly be stacked.
The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the first distributed timestamping system.

I have a feeling it be a lot more expensive than that.
One Virtex 7 chip alone would be classified as a few thousand at a min. $20-40k Maybe.

Sure it be pretty powerful, but expensive in the face of ASIC now a days for say Bitcoin, but useful none the less in the unlikely scenario Bitcoin protocols changed.
For Litecoin, while I'm not overly familiar with the demands of it, I do know it's memory hungry, I would worry it's not got enough and/or fast enough to not be a bottleneck.
