Christian, thanks for all your excellent work on cudaMiner. I have a question that hopefully you can shed some light on.
With all the optimization you've done for cudaMiner mining scrypt, what % would you say is optimized already? IE. How much more % increase in hash rate can we expect to come from new versions/improvements?
It seems that the latest version of cudaminer puts 660Ti hashrate for scrypt at around 80% of that of price-comparable AMD card, hd 7850.
eg. 660Ti ($180, 280 khash/s) vs. 7850 ($180, 350 khash/s)
280 350 = 80%
We might be nearing a point where Nvidia cards can act as decent substitutes for AMD cards.
edit:: list i've compiled so far Card name, price, hash rate/s stock (Overclock)
