Does mining have something to do with video card and video memor
mining, in fact, is a problem-solving process. First, we work out a formula with many answers, and then the dealer releases a random answer every other period of time. An answer is the prototype of a virtual coin. We can see who can calculate the answer at this time, and then this person or these people can divide the virtual coin. When the result comes out, we can find the answer, virtual currency is attached with information such as the computer information and problem-solving time of the tester, so that the virtual currency can be "materialized", that is, it has traceability and uniqueness attributes. At this time, the virtual currency is officially g out
using the graphics card is because the computing method of the graphics card is different from that of the CPU. The CPU focuses on logic computing. The graphics card is simple computing, and mining (that is, solving problems) just needs simple computing power. Therefore, mining with the graphics card
bitcoin miner is the equipment for mining bitcoin. The mining equipment can be ordinary computer or USB miner, It can also be a professional ASIC miner
It is true that ordinary computer CPU can mine bitcoin, but because bitcoin mining has formed a huge instry all over the world, it is difficult for indivials to mine bitcoin with ordinary computers. You need to buy expensive and professional bitcoin
ASIC mining machine
and join the bitcoin miners organization to dig bitcoin, that is, to join a mining pool for mining
First of all, CPU and GPU are designed differently for different missions in the computer:1. CPU is mainly optimized for serial instructions, while GPU is optimized for large-scale parallel computing
Modern multi-core CPUs aim at instruction set parallelism (ILP) and task parallelism (TLP), while GPUs aim at data parallelism (DLP)3. GPU often has a larger bandwidth of memory, that is, the so-called video memory, so it will also have good performance in high throughput applications
It will accelerate the aging of graphics card
in order to make money, the graphics card works continuously for 7x24 hours and runs at full load. Some people will overclock the graphics card in order to earn more money. The general home game graphics card is not designed for this kind of use environment at all. Long time full load operation will lead to accelerated aging of the graphics card, Generally, the life of the graphics card used for half a year of mining is longer than that of the normal use of the players for three years, so now the major brands have made strict restrictions on the quality assurance of the cards

principles of computer Mining:
starting from the essence of bitcoin, the essence of bitcoin is actually the special solution generated by a bunch of complex algorithms. A special solution is one of the finite solutions of a system of equations. Every particular solution can solve the equation and is unique. In the metaphor of banknotes, bitcoin is the number of the top word of a banknote. If you know the number of the top word of a banknote, you will have the banknote
and the process of mining is to constantly seek the special solutions of the equations through huge amount of calculation. The equations are designed to have only 21 million special solutions, so the upper limit of bitcoin is 21 million
to mine bitcoin, you can download the special bitcoin computing tools, register various cooperation websites, fill the registered user name and password into the computing program, and then click the operation to officially start. After completing the installation of bitcoin client, you can directly obtain a bitcoin address. When others pay, you only need to paste the address to others, and you can pay through the same client
after installing the bitcoin client, it will assign a private key and a public key. You need to back up the wallet data containing your private key to ensure that your property is not lost. Unfortunately, if the hard disk is completely formatted, personal bitcoin will be completely lost
in the early days of the advent of a virtual currency, it was relatively easy to mine. Maybe a CPU with strong enough performance could easily mine the currency
as it becomes more and more difficult to dig money, the CPU has already been unable to cope with the huge computing power required for mining, and the terrible performance of the large-scale stream processor parallel computing in the GPU core of the graphics card is more suitable for mining this kind of parallel computing
therefore, today's professional mining machinery has become the world of GPU and professional chips, in which CPU plays the most coordinating role. Moreover, with the increase of mining difficulty, the demand for the display memory capacity of the mine card is higher and higher. A few years ago, 2-3gb was enough, but now 6GB may not be enough.
in other words, there are a lot of "mining machine graphics cards" on Taobao, because these graphics cards use less materials under the same core and basically unchanged hash speed, such as recing video memory to improve the performance price ratio (the size of video memory has little to do with the mining speed), which can shorten the time to recover the cost
in short, the graphics card of mining machine is the core of common high-end graphics card + the workmanship of low-end graphics card, or some cheap medium and high-end public graphics card.
it has nothing to do with video memory
traditionally, amd card retains the ability of double precision calculation. No castration
n card has been castrated greatly. So the computing power is not as good as card a.
It depends on the computing power of GPU and CPU instead of the computing speed. Although there is no big difference, because the computing principle of graphics card is different from CPU, and mining needs distributed computing. In this kind of computing, graphics card GPU is better than CPU

mining is actually using graphics card to dig bitcoin.... In fact, it can be understood as the solution of super equation, which requires super high computing power of graphics card
-
to dig bitcoin with graphics card. Let the graphics card work with high load, and the eliminated ones become mine cards. Generally, the core PC board on the back of mine cards is seriously discolored
