Graphics card mining price is very expensive

1.

The graphics card market in 2017 is the most special in recent years. In the past few years, no graphics card will increase its price by 100% a few months after its release. RX 580 has achieved this goal. Together with all the graphics cards below 3000 yuan, it has broken through the premium point in an irresistible manner. All this happened with the bitcoin price breaking through 3000 US dollars. After miners swept the RMB 2000 RX 580, the price of low-end RX 560 and even GTX 1050 Ti increased to varying degrees. However, is the price directly proportional to the ability of hash algorithm? Recently, we did a test to collect the new generation of graphics cards at various prices on the market, test the mining speed of Ethernet and bitcoin, and see which card has the highest cost performance

Different from the thousand yuan market, this wave of mining tide has a great impact on high-end graphics cards. In the test results, RX 580 and Rx 480 have almost reached the bottom of GTX 1070. Moreover, the price of Rx 580 is even competing with that of GTX 1070, so the miners directly swept the 3000 yuan market when GTX 1060 3gb / 6GB is out of stock, and GTX 1070 is basically out of stock. The more advanced GTX 1080 is also out of stock, but it's not clear whether the players are forced to go directly to the high-end card or the miners extend their claws to this market. The situation of GTX 1080 ti is only slightly improved, but it's not much better. However, not everyone can afford the 6000 yuan graphics card. Only the top players will be affected, but it's just a narrower choice. It's not the case that the rich can't buy it

summary:

to mine, the first choice is the graphics card with more than 3gb video memory, which is the basis. In addition, the core frequency will affect the mining speed. We have two GTX 1080 cards on hand, one is public version, and the other is MSI GTX 1080 gaming X. the operating frequencies of the two cards are 1885mhz and 1936mhz respectively. After testing, because of the frequency, the latter will be about 4% faster than the former in actual mining. The advantages of high-frequency graphics card are highlighted

So Xiaobian's opinions and suggestions are as follows:

the low-end card and the old architecture card are not suitable for mining. GTX 1080 ti is an extreme, with the most powerful performance, but the price is not suitable for large-scale procurement. The mining speed of a card with the same location is much faster than that of N card, The cost performance of GTX 1060 3gb is higher than that of GTX 1060 6GB. The frequency and the number of stream processors / CUDA have a great influence on the performance of the card. The size of video memory has no influence on the mining. It's enough. Different video cards will have different profits if they dig different coins. If you want to further explore, you need to test several currencies, Limited to space, we only select two representative currencies to test

as long as the mine disaster does not occur, the shortage will last for a long time. However, if there is a mine disaster, a large number of second-hand mine cards will directly enter the market. These cards are always running at full load and full speed, and their service life is greatly shortened compared with that of ordinary users. Even if the price is lower, they will roll over at any time, There is no need to start at all. Moreover, the second-hand market will be directly disrupted. At that time, it will be difficult for some normal users to get out of the second-hand market, and the deep-water fish's Dragon killing knife will explode the galaxy. Now it is said that NVIDIA is making some graphics cards without display output interface, which are provided to miners as mine cards. With a certain capacity, if the mine card still can't satisfy the miners, won't the miners buy the graphics card in the consumer market? The only function of these special mine cards is to prevent mine cards from flowing into the second-hand market, which can not alleviate the current shortage of graphics cards

2. CPU can be used to mine, but the efficiency of CPU mining is not as high as graphics card. In order to make money, absentees have to calculate the input-output ratio. The input-output ratio of mining with graphics card is higher, so we graally start mining with graphics card. Now you should understand why mining with graphics card does not use CPU.

3. Rx460 / 560 and rx470 / 570 are the most cost-effective. Compared with the price, vega64 has the largest profit. Although vega64 has the highest mining capacity, it is only twice as much as 470, and the price is more than three times. Therefore, two vega64 pieces can be exchanged for six rx570 pieces, but the computing power is only two-thirds of the latter. When it comes to rx560, the situation is similar
rx470 / 570 is the first choice, followed by 460 and 560

4.

as a middle-aged miner for 13 years, let's talk about the feeling of mining before.

I bought four mining machines in the past. Bitcoin uses CPU and I'm not familiar with it, so I use the form of buying graphics card to dig Wright's coin.

the first one is a simple double card mining machine, not a mining machine strictly speaking, but a double 7950 machine, At that time, I thought about digging for a while. If I didn't make money, I could still play games by myself. As a result, I found that the efficiency was really not high. Later, I used to dig some dog money and play with it.

the second one was the popular 6-card miner in those years. At that time, there was a powerful motherboard, which could run for 6 yuan by connecting with the PCI adapter and changing the BIOS. At that time, I could dig a lot of Wright's money every day with this machine, It's a pity that there are too many people digging, so it took more than 80 days to dig the coins. The third and the fourth are professional mining machines. At that time, the new chips were used to mass proce mining machines. Although they were expensive, the power consumption decreased a lot. It took about a year to dig, In the end, he retired, g up other counterfeit coins for a while, and then sold them.

generally speaking, many websites have no credibility at all in the past few days. They actually know what the concept of excessive increase in computing power is after digging up the money.

when ZF suppressed it, the assets immediately shrank by nearly 70%, but they still didn't sell because of their faith, On the contrary, after selling the miner, I bought some coins and put them in my hand. When I bought 100, I g them and only bought 15. Hey, the miner was sealed and put under the bed. After waiting for three years, I found that it rose again. This year, when bitcoin rose to 2W, I sold some Leyte coins and paid the down payment. Almost 300 of them were sold. Now it seems that the highest is 380, Ha ha

now I still have some money in my hand, and I plan to hold it for a long time, but I won't dig any more. However, I still have a lot of orders with our first-class suppliers. In the past two months, I sold nearly 150 cards, and the more I sold, the more I sold. Some cards are about to double, which is even crazier than that in 2013, The existence of e-money has its own value in the end, but it does not deny that there are so many speculators who come in to fight. There are indeed those who pursue the price. After the boom, there will be a wave of leeks cutting. In the final analysis, bitcoin is just an investment. Everyone feels different about the risk. The strength of big funds is still strong, and it is inevitable for retail investors to be cut, But it's better than A-share at least.

mining is not a good thing. The big miners are in the remote areas with low electricity charges, many mining machines and low cost. Most people dig at home, and that's just a little fuss.

finally, it's not a good thing to grow too fast. Those who are confident can come in and show their operation. If they don't have much ability, don't come in, Only by routine

5. Bitcoin mining machine is specially used to earn bitcoin computer-like professional mining chip. It uses burn-in card type working power consumption. Compared with users using computer software to run specific calculation and communicate with remote server, the corresponding bitcoin can obtain bitcoin. The price of bitcoin mining machine is two or three thousand yuan and 200000 yuan. 20112013 high configuration bitcoin mining machine is 10000 yuan, up 300000 yuan Dig 1 bitcoin today (2013) machine 100 can dig 3.5

6. There is no need to set it manually, let the computer manage it automatically. 1. The recommended value of Microsoft's virtual memory setting is 1.5-3 times that of physical memory. Then, 16g memory needs to be set very large and takes up a lot of disk space. But it didn't work. 2. Because 16g memory is enough for most ordinary users, there is no need for virtual memory at all. It's only a waste if it's so big. 3. But it can't be shut down either. Because someone has tested, 32g computer, after turning off the virtual memory, will also be out of memory prompt. Because some programs need virtual memory. Therefore, for the sake of compatibility, it is best not to turn off the virtual memory and let the system manage automatically.

7. The stream processor of mining graphics card is faster than CPU
so
mining will lead to graphics card price increase

8. The main reason for the high price of video card is the rising price of video memory particles, and mining is not the main reason
if the price of video memory does not decrease, there is no room for the price of video card to decrease.

9. Now that there are fewer miners, it doesn't mean that no one is digging. The price of all graphics cards has gone up, and it won't go down in the short term. For example, the gtx1060 3G is between 1499 and 1599, and it used to be between 1200 and 1299 yuan, so you can't help it,

10. If you go up, you'll have to pay it back sooner or later. It used to be 1700 to 480, but now it's not 4800 to 1080
