Anyone in the uk interested in two machines with a total of 228m/hash, plus two more r9 380's, 3 x r9 390's, 5 x rx480's

Totaly hash rate once other two r9 380s are installed would be 268m/hash

£1850

All equipment available from middlesbrough

    I saw pictures of a pretty valid looking asic recently... Wouldn't invest in more GPUs at the moment.

    That motherboard looks to me like an AM1 3pci which means you can't install the extra 2x380

    Not to mention you will be looking at 1200w power draw and the power supply is 1050

    Basically someone managed to get what looks like 8x undervolted rx480 chips (based on performance) into a server box. Then it's connected to a mini PC something like zotac makes. Most likely with 8 GB of RAM and low power CPU.

    Difference isn't massive but still it's a bit more efficient than normal GPU rig

    Downside is the price. They want a lot of USD with current GBP exchange doesn't make sense. It also confirms they most likely got rx480 chips (maybe even entire PCB) and want to make profit on top of it.

    Motherboard can take 5 gpus would need a 16x to 16x ribbon to free up the 5th pcie it is a gigabyte board. So it will take the two extra cards with two ribbonss as both boards are identical.

    This is priced fairly and probably on the cheap side.

    I doubt any asic at this speed will be viable price wise for the next 6 month or more

    No i shipped to portugal recently my item got lost and returned to me smashed and bashed and for my troubles ebay refunded the buyer even thought it was his fault on not supplying the correct address.

    Downside is the price. They want a lot of USD with current GBP exchange doesn't make sense. It also confirms they most likely got rx480 chips (maybe even entire PCB) and want to make profit on top of it.

    So it's basically an expensive GPU mining rig :D

    But seriously.. there is some potential for ETh asics.. not to the extent we've seen before though. Just guestimating you can probably double the efficiency of current rx480's using similar chips and a good memory bus. But that's a big R&D risk against a project that may potentially switch to PoS and is working towards that. It would still be pretty expensive to buy as well! Maybe £1200 for 200 mh or so, These are rough figures.. even so im not overly concerned about investing in GPU's at this point.

    I thought I read that ASIC is technically/fundamentally not possible with ETH and that the developers designed it that way. Am I wrong?

    Even it it is, I'd think we'd find out differently that from a picture someone saw.

    If I'm wrong, I wouldn't be surprised.

    Are you getting out of the mining game? Or just looking to diversify?

    No you are correct, the algorithm was designed to be memory heavy which would prevent ASICs from working.
