16:30:55 DataHoarder: > Shipping in July 2026
16:32:20 DataHoarder: I wonder how many boards are stacked up here, 17kg
16:33:13 DataHoarder: oh, same weight as their previous board stack, but 200 -> 1000 KH/s they advertise
16:47:45 nioc: can't pay in monero lool
16:50:11 sech1: So they claim 400 h/s/watt basically
16:50:14 sech1: Interesting
16:50:31 sech1: Best tuned EPYC systems get 200-250 h/s/watt
16:50:48 kico: let's fork!
16:51:08 sech1: My plan is to finish RandomX V2 in Q1 2026 :P
16:51:14 kico: <3
16:51:25 DataHoarder: FCMP++ already has the commitment stuff in the pipeline
16:51:26 sech1: RandomX v2 is missing the RISC-V code, but this is exactly what I've been working on in December
16:51:28 kico: thanks for doing the needful sir _/\_
16:51:29 DataHoarder: V2 probably if ready
16:51:43 DataHoarder: V2 is "minor" overall, the AES part + rounding changes
16:51:54 sech1: There might be some other changes ;)
16:51:58 DataHoarder: ;)
16:52:00 sech1: It's not set in stone yet
16:52:02 kico: noice
16:52:18 kico: would be fun to brick these inb4 release
16:52:19 sech1: I think it should be tuned for Zen4/Zen5/Zen6 CPUs
16:52:22 sech1: *tuned more
16:52:51 sech1: As it's the main source of RandomX hashrate now, and ZenX CPUs will dominate the CPU market in the next 5 years or so
16:52:56 DataHoarder: AVX512 128-bit specific masked operands :)
16:53:10 DataHoarder: so 128-bit conditional lanes, which also exist in other instruction sets
16:53:30 DataHoarder: kico: if they are some RISC-V tbh they are "cpu"s so unless they cheap out on what they include it can probably adapt
16:54:09 kico: DataHoarder, yeah I mean a fork could at least make them less profitable
16:54:23 kico: "brick" was not the best word
16:54:46 kico: they could need a FW update to adapt no?
16:54:46 DataHoarder: I mean, if they are after all just plain old CPUs just more power efficient
16:55:07 kico: sure
16:55:17 DataHoarder: purpose of randomx about "someone implementing this just needs to make a more efficient CPU than existing"
16:55:38 DataHoarder: no ssh needed in a performant way
16:55:46 DataHoarder: they can cheap out there
16:56:06 DataHoarder: they can kill all their branch prediction to reduce consumption and silicon
16:56:48 kico: ic
17:00:07 kico: Operating altitude(2-5), m ≤2000
17:00:13 kico: no mining in tibet!
17:00:16 kico: ah!
17:00:31 kico: based jihan
21:12:36 sech1: This PR completes XMRig's RISC-V support https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/pull/3749
21:12:41 sech1: Nothing more to do there
21:12:49 sech1: Now I can focus on RandomX v2 :)
21:13:13 sech1: Oh, but first I need to move all new RISC-V code to the upstream repo
21:13:24 sech1: In January probably
