Seems I can get better price for Stratix V A7 or D5. So I will need help for one of this chip to get maximum hashrate. Any idea?
Here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1842040 fpgaminer achieved 400MH/s with XC7K325T part. It's 1k$ part. There's a chance that he will get closer to 1GH/s. Worth it?
A few hundred dollar video card will give you that kind of hash rate, obviously it will chew a lot more power but still. FPGA chips seem overpriced, probably not enough competition.
The discussion is about FPGA, not video cards. So please no off topic posts.

Hm do you think is posseble go more than 1Gh/s.
And because my idea is something like BTC & LTC mining, I will probably need a team, but first I have to get the price.
So any helper for 1Gb/S bitstream or higher?

I'd want closer to 2GH for a $1k part to even bother at this stage of the game really. I'm interested in the price too though.
let us know they price, i wouldn't mind paying 120% plus shipping depending on price
I will probably go for 1000+ to reduce price. 1Gh/S would be nice. Anyone knows how much W is consuming??
Thanks for your help.

Fire up ISE and compile the open source Bitcoin miner for them and see what is has to say for timings/usage. See https://github.com/progranism/Open-Source-FPGA-Bitcoin-Miner
Sorry I'm not a programmer, so in this part I will need a help

I think only few ppl have experience with both of these FPGAs.
Thanks a lot for your answer
Probably I will use Kintex-7 > I'm waiting for a price for 500-1000 pcs> anybody done a bitstream?
An update as soon I get the price.

120 views and no answer? 
Virtex-7 I read that has potential of 1600mhash/s, but I don't know the hashrate of Stratix-5.
I could get both chips for low price.
Thanks in advance for your help.
