Identify mining graphics card

1. There's no good way to distinguish, so it's better for people who don't know how to do it

a mine card is a graphics card used for mining, that is, a virtual currency used for mining bitcoin or other computing proction. Because of the heavy workload and long working time, the hardware life is often shorter than that of a normal graphics card. Before 2014, only a card can be used for mining, but now n card can also be used for mining. So n card without mine card is not applicable.

2.

1. It depends on whether the core turns yellow. Some parts of the new card will turn pale yellow, but at that time, the color of the protective paint is yellow. The core yellow of the mine card is yellow and burnt yellow caused by long-time and high-frequency use of heat and oxidation

2. Check the screw fixing plate

friends who have used independent graphics cards should know that the graphics cards are fixed on the chassis by screws, while most of the large-scale mining graphics cards are fixed by plastic ties, while the self use cards will not be fixed in this way

Interface

interface refers to the output interface of the graphics card. Before purchasing, you can ask the seller about the interface for connecting the display in daily use, because mining graphics cards usually do not use the display output interface

after the interface is determined, whether the interface has been used for a long time can be judged by checking whether there is st. If there is a lot of st, it will prove that the interface has not been used at all or recently

extended data:

mine cards refer to the cards used to dig bitcoin. They are full loaded for a long time, with short service life and high load all day

the bitcoin mining machine is the computer used to earn bitcoin. This kind of computer generally has professional mining chips, and works by installing a large number of graphics cards, which consumes a lot of power. One of the ways to get bitcoin is to download mining software and then run specific algorithm to communicate with remote server to get corresponding bitcoin

Mining is a process of increasing bitcoin money supply. Mining also protects the security of the bitcoin system, prevents fraulent transactions, and avoids "double payment", which means spending the same bitcoin multiple times. Miners offer algorithms for bitcoin networks in exchange for the opportunity to get bitcoin rewards. The miners verify each new transaction and record it in the general ledger

3. Some people have bought graphics cards that haven't been lit up. Can I light them up
although the above figure is not clear, it should be a mine card. Because:
the so-called mine card is the graphics card for mining. The "mining" here is virtual mining. Generally, there are professional graphics cards to mine. The mine mined is actually bitcoin. Users download the mining software from the computer and then run a specific algorithm. After communicating with the remote server, they can get the corresponding bitcoin. Most of them work by burning the graphics card, so the power consumption is large. Graphics cards and mine cards are usually graphics cards with ATI chips. When bitcoin went out of business, those miners took out their mine cards and sold them as second-hand ones.

4.

Check whether the graphics card is mine card or not, you can refer to the following three points:

1, st

when the graphics card is running, it needs heat dissipation, the heat dissipation is mainly the fan on the graphics card, so the st on the fan will give us some judgment. Generally speaking, the self used video card and fan will not always run at full speed. The cotton gauze of all kinds of textiles in the room is scattered, so the st on the fan is often mixed with cotton wadding

extended data:

the maintenance of the graphics card is as follows:

1. The chassis is well ventilated, which can protect the graphics card and all the hardware in the machine, and prevent the high temperature from causing the running speed to drop, crash or even burn. The machine room is hot. In summer, you can take down the side panel of the chassis to help heat dissipation, or add a fan to help heat dissipation. If conditions permit, it is recommended to use water cooling to improve the working efficiency of the graphics card

2. The interface of the graphics card and the display are connected correctly on the street, and the virtual connection is easy to be interrupted frequently or ignited, which will cause the interface of the graphics card to burn down.

3. The effect of overclocking on the graphics card is not very obvious. On the contrary, it is easy to cause a huge increase in heat and slow down or even burn down of GPU

4. Dust cleaning, no matter the Chaka or motherboard or other components, will inevitably proce st after a long time. It is necessary to remove the chassis and carry out st removal work to ensure the normal work of each component
