this is not true. the 260 is about as fast as the c1060. you only buy a tesla because of the bigger RAM (irrelevant for brute forcers), better drivers (irrelevant), somehow higher quality chips and more testing done (largely irrelevant to bruteforcing). for the a5/1 table generation an error rate of 1% is bearable, and i have not seen my *overclocked* gtx260 make a mistake in the last year during numerous debug sessions.
