GPU server mining machine
Specific steps:
< UL >first of all, we need to find a mine pool which is easy to operate and proces stable output. The role of the mine pool is to subdivide the data packets for each terminal. We can pay the corresponding amount of bitcoin according to the proportion of the data packets calculated by the terminal through the precise algorithm
The first step in setting up mining equipment is to choose the right hardware. This article will focus on GPU (graphics card) mining, of course, you can use CPU or ASIC equipment mining. Amd graphics card architecture is very beneficial to mining. NVIDIA card is not suitable for mining because of its low hash rate. The best NVIDIA graphics cards are less than 0.5 megahash. Notebook Hardware mining is not as good as NVIDIA card, which is a bad option for mining. You need to use a desktop system for mining. There is a desktop system to ensure adequate cooling of the hardware
the graphics card or card needs to be able to match the motherboard, and the power supply must have enough PCI-E connectors. Before determining the graphics card, pay attention to these. In order for the system to cool down sufficiently, you need to remove the cover of the chassis in order to get better heat dissipation. This is what people call "open air rig.". If you can aim the system at a fan or air conditioner, you can make the device cooler when it's running, thus extending its life and keeping it efficient
What about ASIC? It is a more optimized circuit than the CPU mentioned above. There is no specific definition, but there is a rule in the field of chip design: the more general computing platform, the less efficient it is to complete specific computing. ASIC is the most dedicated computing platform. If we understand this, we can come to such a basic conclusion: in the mining field, if we use the computing power proof mechanism, as long as the CPU can dig, ASIC can dig. No matter what algorithm is used, ASIC can dig. There is no reason that CPU can dig, but ASIC can't, So the biggest difference between GPU and ASIC is their specific computing power.
general computing
ability for mining computing, and its performance is much better than simple
CPU computing
because GPU has a large amount of concurrency
the professional mining machine does not use GPU, but a special mining chip, which is an ASIC. This kind of chip can only be used for mining, and has no other functions, but it is highly efficient in its own work and faster than GPU.
Tianhe-1 uses 6144 Intel general multi-core processors and 5120 amd graphics acceleration processors, with a total memory capacity of 98tb. The bandwidth of point-to-point communication is 40Gbps, and the total capacity of shared disk is 1PB. The supercomputer system will be deployed in the National Supercomputing Center in Tianjin Binhai New Area as the business host. Tianhe-1 adopts AMD's ati4870 and Tianhe-1A adopts NVIDIA chip
