It is true. GPUs will soon be out of the game.

Just wait for 28nm FPGAs and your GPU will be left in the dust in terms of both performance, cost and efficiency.

I am trying to sell all my GPUs before reward halv and before others flood ebay with used mining GPUs.

People that don't see FPGAs coming hard and fast don't have their eyes open ! Nobody likes it but its the way it is going to be ...

Question is why ? GPUs are out, it's all about FPGA mining now.

Typical FPGAs offer significantly less performance than even a 2 generation old GPU.  FPGAs offer lower power consumption, but that's about it.

Yeah but I don't want $20,000 worth of FPGAs if bitcoin goes belly-up one day.  At least I can resell GPUs later.

Is it just me, or does that look like a triple slot wide card?
Yeah it looks like it. Looks like it is way long too, maybe more than 13 inches.

Did a Google news search for "Radeon 7990" limiting results published in the last 24 hours.

This came up: (Appears to be legit? - multiple search results have this)
