Equihash support #65

Could you add equihash variants support in the future, or have you though about it, is it possible? Maybe you could do some wizardry to get AMD cards closer to Nvidia's.

We have actually talked about trying to implement equihash and we will probably attempt it at some point. At the moment we have our plates full with a couple new big algos coming, so I can't make any real guarantees on when we'd get to working on equihash (or how long it'll take to implement it for that matter). But I'm sure we'll support it eventually

Beam has 150,5 eqihash if you support it then beam will be supported down the lline eventually?

Hey guys, you know we looked at beam and equihash in general and we're having a hard time finding a way to implement it that would have reasonably profitable performance. Due to that we're currently prioritizing other algorithms instead. Equihash is a big market and one we'd like to address, but right now it's tought to justify the work if the end result will not be profitable to mine.
