How does fpga+scaled integers compare with a gpu ?
- Zarathust 15y agoNot sure about scaled integer but I checked fpga vs gpu for bitcoin mining and the fpga solution was an order of magnitude more expensive.
- robomartin 15y agoAn FPGA can't compete with a dedicated chip. The additional hardware switches and routing layers needed to make an FPGA programmable means that there's a limit to how fast it can go and how much logic you can pack per square millimeter. What you can do is use an FPGA to validate the design and then convert it to an ASIC if the market can justify the costs involved.
