The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

This doesn't look anything like a FPGA to me, just a lot of custom CPUs.
I doubt it can perform any better than other CPUs, either.
I'm not aware of anyone putting the effort into running a miner on it.

There are lots of these kind of co-processor boards made by different (usually small) companies that deliver ~1TFLOPS / OPS but I am yet to see anyone write software to run them for mining.

You should flog it in eBay and buy a 7950 or ASIC miner Tongue
