Is there dedicated mining hardware available to mine cryptonote coins?

0

I'm talking about hardware such as USB miners, etc. I'm asking, because I see people mine with 86kH/s on my pool…

I've removed the bit where you ask "what the best mining hardware is", because we don't do product recommendations here as they would outdate quickly anyway. – Murch – 2016-03-05T14:34:13.483

From here

CryptoNight is a proof-of-work algorithm that mixes graphics processing unit (GPU) and central processing unit (CPU) mining to create a system resistant to both application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and fast memory-on-chip devices.

So, there is no dedicated ASIC hardware (yet). You can currently only use CPU plus GPU (which of course counts as hardware but I assumed you meant dedicated to mining hardware like ASICs).
