Still waiting on my question

Which asic can mine VTC ?

I suspect the answer is none but i'll give you the opportunity to answer.

x11 - FPGAs, I've already seen a few 1-2GH/s miners
sha-3 (Maxcoin) - botnets + most likely something else; its hashrate went up too fast, last time I checked it wasn't that profitable for GPU miners
scrypt-n (VTC) - some ASICs can already mine it; and if developer fixes it by increasing N, it will be a CPU-only coin

I haven't seen any good GPU-only algorithms yet.

Also https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/why-i-say-x11-and-sha3-are-not-asic-resistent-540160

so which should I mine now using my R9 270x rig?  Are any of these more profitable than scrypt right now, or does scrypt still have another month or more in it before the ASICs destroy GPU mining?

I read that X11 runs significantly cooler due to the algorithms and the demand placed on the GPU/ram

There will always be a new algorithm for gpu's to mine. Gpu's will never be obsolete

You are right, sooner or later all algo would be ASIC mineable. So RIP GPU, sell it before its too late or use it for gaming Smiley
sooner or later there will be new algo too... (as well as faster gpu, using less power...)

Some asic can mine scrypt-N.. ??

Ok

Which one ?

I think n-scrypt --- vertcoin is a very good choice.  it is professionally run with very very strong team.

like before, sha256 asic came out, and all gpu miners went to scrypt.
Now its turn for keccak (maxcoin) or X11 alghorytm Smiley
It will be profitable again and again and again .....

Hello everyone,lets talk and share yours opinions about future of gpu.Time by time gpu becomes usless for mining because there are new asics hardware but before asics all gpu had amazing value and China's companies which producing gpu made a lot money couse most of gpus have been sold out everywhere but whats gonna happen now ?there arent so much gamers that could buy and buy new gpus every years and im thinking these companies gonna loose a lot of money because power of buying is less than before,so is there any hope that someone creates system like cryptocurrencies and gpu will be sold out again Smiley i dont im a little sad having a few r9 280x which not gonna get return of investment but peoples who have more than 100 gpus at home what they gonna do i cant imagine Huh Shocked
