No one does that any more. The amount of computing power in the blockchain is impressive. FPGAs didn't last too long; people are using ASICs now.
It's a shame if all those farms of GPUs are wasted. I guess I should have looked on ebay for people selling them off cheap. Or maybe they're just being used for protein folding now.
It's interesting that by tying mining to value has driven people to create home clusters and now people have developed ASICs. It'd be cool if those could have some other use in future.
