scrypt mining hardware comparison

Notes:

• Any missing information can be assumed stock values or was not available from source.
• The wattage listed is an estimate.
• Core and Memory speeds are listed in MHz.
• Hash rate is listed in kH/s (kilohashes per second).
• Risers are 'yes' or 'no' - used or not used in a rig.
• The setups listed below are examples of what people are doing and getting, it does not mean they are good examples (you might be able to do better, or with a different model GPU of that series)!
