Graphics card mining test
as there are not only GPUs, but also video memory, power supply unit and a large number of chip resistor capacitor components on the graphics card, long-term mining will lead to aging of some components, so the life of this kind of graphics card is worrying. But as long as the CPU heat dissipation has been good, basically do not worry, the vast majority can continue to serve for a long time.
now there are special mine cards for mining
if you want to buy game graphics cards, it is recommended to buy new graphics cards in online shopping malls such as Jingdong and tmall
it is recommended to buy them through regular channels. If it is a special second-hand business, there may be mining graphics cards,
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

unlike a hard disk, the graphics card also has smart data that can be read. There is no function mole on the card to record usage time, usage load and other data
in other words, it is impossible to know the actual power on time of the graphics card, let alone whether the mining operation has been carried out
this can only be inferred from experience, the quality of graphics card, components and circuits.
