What kind of graphics card is used in mining

1.

Generally, there are professional graphics cards to mine, and the mine 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

the graphics cards and mine cards are usually ATI chips. The bitcoin market is not good, so the miners take out their mining cards and sell them as second-hand

what is mining

to put it simply, mining is to use the chip to perform a calculation related to the random number, and get the answer in exchange for a virtual coin. virtual currency can be exchanged for the currency of each country through some way. The stronger the computing power, the faster the chip can find this random answer. Theoretically, the more virtual coins can be proced per unit time. Because it's about random numbers, you can only get rewards if you happen to find the answer. It's possible that one chip will find the answer in the next second, or ten chips won't find the answer in a week. The more chips compute at the same time, the easier it is to find the answer, and the mining machine with built-in multi chips appears. And a number of mining machines to form a "mine" at the same time mining is to improve efficiency. In the mine pool, multiple "self-employed" join an organization to mine together. No matter who finds the answer and digs out the virtual coin, everyone gets the corresponding reward according to the calculation ability of contribution. This way can make the income of "self-employed" more stable

relationship between mining and graphics card

the stronger the computing power of ant miner, the easier it is to dig out virtual coins. Accordingly, when the more virtual coins are g out, the difficulty of mining will be increased accordingly, so as to control the yield of virtual coins. The virtual currency is not unlimited. The total number of bitcoin is 84 million

Graphics card mining is a process of increasing the bitcoin money supply

the reason why the graphics card is used is that mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment. The mining machine is composed of graphics card array. With dozens or even hundreds of graphics cards, the cost of hardware and other costs is very high, and there is a considerable expenditure in mining

computers have professional mining chips, and most of them work 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

extended data

bitcoin does not rely on the issuance of specific monetary institutions, and is generated through a large number of calculations of specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction

the bitcoin system is composed of users (users control the wallet through the key), transactions (transactions will be broadcast to the whole bitcoin network) and miners (the blockchain is generated by competitive computing to reach a consensus at each node, and the blockchain is a distributed public authoritative account book, including all transactions in the bitcoin network)

bitcoin miners manage the bitcoin network by solving the problem of workload proof mechanism with certain workload - confirming transactions and preventing double payment. Because hash operation is irreversible, it is very difficult to find the random adjustment number of matching requirements, which requires a continuous trial and error process that can predict the total number of times

when a node finds the solution matching the requirements, it can broadcast its results to the whole network. Other nodes can receive the new data block and check whether it matches the rule. If other nodes find that they really meet the requirements (the operation target required by bitcoin) by calculating the hash value, then the data block is valid, and other nodes will accept the data block

Why use graphics card to mine

compared with CPU, GPU is used for general purpose calculation. So it can stack hundreds of stream processors awesome. Each stream processor is like a small CPU. Although its ability to run complex programs is far from the power of CPU, it can not support many processors, so the actual performance, especially the single precision floating point performance is much stronger than that of CPU. p> However, as we have mentioned before, a card is very suitable for general computing such as virtual currency because it has many stream processors, and the speed of obtaining specific solutions is much higher than that of N card. Therefore, many miners rush to buy a card to calculate virtual currency for profit

of course, with NVIDIA's Pascal graphics card, n card's ability in mining virtual currency is not as different as a card before. So in the current situation that a card is generally out of stock, those mid-range N cards have become the second choice for miners

What are the disadvantages of mine card

finally, I want to talk about why we can't choose mine card when we are shopping for second-hand cards. Because the miners are mining bitcoin, the most important thing is to seek profits. Therefore, the graphics card they use is running and calculating all the time, and its strength is far greater than that of daily game applications. In other words, running such a calculation for one day is equivalent to running a graphics card for one month

in addition, the places where virtual currency is mined are mostly the places where multiple graphics cards gather. Thousands of graphics cards are constantly calculating in a room, and their heat is also quite huge. Miners can not choose the chassis with good heat dissipation conditions like ordinary consumers, so that the heat can be released smoothly. In this way, the graphics cards can still operate for 7 * 24 hours under high temperature conditions, It also deepens its aging degree

the result of doing so is that the graphics cards used for mining are lost prematurely. If you buy these graphics cards, the result will be unstable operation, restart and other things will continue to happen

moreover, at present, manufacturers also have strict requirements on mine cards, such as banning second-hand sales and shortening the shelf life. If users buy these mine card graphics cards, future maintenance will also be a big challenge

4. If 900 yuan graphics card, don't mine. We can't find it.

5. You can install three graphics cards with PCI-E adapter. You can read the tutorial online. The cheapest graphics card is 7770, and the speed of a single card is 200. If you make three graphics cards, the average monthly income is about 1000-1200, because you don't need to pay for electricity, so this part is not excluded for you

6. Simply put, it is to use your graphics card to work for others in your spare time in exchange for compensation. Only AMD's graphics card is suitable.

7. Generally, amd graphics card has many stream processors, and mining is fast. In those years, 68707850280 (without x) was popular. Now, the new card mining is more valuable than 470d, which is worth 470 yuan. The cost performance ratio and efficiency ratio are more prominent.

9. The relationship between network speed and
router
is still very big
if your
wireless network
or the network speed through the router is
less than the broadband speed, then it is likely to be the problem of the router
it is recommended to replace a better router or use a al band router to get better performance, and WiFi uses the language
