Yes, but it is still not a shipping product yet.

Maybe so, but it is atleast 'real' none the less....

Though even better would be a "speculative hardware" subforum.  Anything not available for third-party verification goes there.

Having no proof of said hardware to be real does not make it speculation.

The claims are real, feasibility ?, development intent, real or fake can be discussed either way.

I think that this would be the best idea going forward.  It would really clean up a lot of the current sub-forums.  Take all the 7990 stuff, Lancelot, almost everything BFL related and shove it all there.

Most sensible idea YET.

Go for it !

 Huh Huh Huh


Is that Lancelot ?

Just rename it to BFL
And rename the project to BFLcoin.  Wink

That's what they have to be careful about, when throwing a large load of ASIC power on the market.

or we'll have BFLcoin and OpenCoin...

Bleh, just rename the FPGA one to FPGA/ASIC.

Seems if ASIC is taking off with neighborhood of 40 times (according to BFL) the hashing rate of FPGA, whenever that happens, we just have more ASIC and fewer FPGA posts here.

+ over 9000. Which, coincidentally, is the projected hashing power (in Gh/s) of my prototype quantum computing RNFP* device powered by patented 3HWW** technology. Can't show you the details yet, but I'm happy to accept your preorders.

Hardware forum is good place for ASIC, there's no need to create next one. GPU is an ASIC so plenty topics already there (here).

Until the first ASIC product is verified, I do not think it's a good idea to create a sub forum.
