If you haven't heard any negative reviews, you must have your head in the sand.. ASUS has been dogged like a stepchild on lots of mining forums, reddit, etc, because of a multitude of issues. It's not just a random string of failures. When tigerdirect, amazon and lots of other places have plenty of ASUS cards still in stock, while all the OTHER brands are sold out right now.. that should tell you something. That, by itself, should absolutely tell you something.

And yeah, the powercolor I've drieid ran cooler, faster, and used less power, than the asus cards I tried. It's not my preferred, but it did a hell of a lot more than asus did. The 280 and 290's might have fewer issues, but they certainly do have their issues.

They simply aren't robust. MSI is rock solid. Stout performance, takes it up the yang no matter how hard you push them or how hot they get (best components in the industry), and best warranty in the industry. Focusing on just one factor, sure ASUS are probably ok. But there are better options.

Sapphire TOXIC is probably the sickest 280 card out there. Best hashrate whether undervolted or not, and superior components as well.

no real point launching with scrypt n ...


will the windows qt be available before launch in password rar/zip files?

 Then you were doing it correct.  With -n you get about 50% of what you get with scrypt.

Invested 0.5BTC for IPO.
I called for a N-factor.

For those of you don't just because you don't wanna reconfigure your rigs, you are gonna have to anyway when the 28nm Scrypt ASIC hit.

For those of you who say N-factor will damage your card, explains why? Just because of the stress it put on the card?

can someone tell me which pool will be open right at launch. i have been screwed on 3 launches with bad pools.

@dev   could you communicate with pool operators and make sure the launch is smooth.

@pool operators.  upgrade your systems so they are speedy and accessible @ launch.


thanks!!!  i wish this coin much luck!

If you keep investing in the IPO, there will be no value to anyone whatsoever as we will all get such a small amount of coins

We will be open at launch, we have a server thats ready for a large number of hashes, and we have hardware on tap to expand nearly instantly. We have launched with other coins without issues.

Just noticed this coin. It would be a disaster to go regular scrypt for a GPU coin. Scrypt-N should be the way forward... if you are a GPU coin, you should be adamant about supporting a GPU-only coin. Horrible marketing if you don't.

And someone who said scrypt ASICs don't exist yet...is wrong.

I agree and as in IPO voted.

I think scrypt ASICs are out there and they hammer scrypt launches. I would favor stretching out the N-factor progression as long as possible to keep GPU's relevant. After N20 the store can sell CPUs
