Vega5664 mining
The calculation power of mining is as shown in the figure below. This is a little old. At present, vega64 is the fastest. However, considering the price, the best choice is rx570 and 560. The cheapest rx574 is 1599, and the cheapest vega64 is 4800. In terms of calculation power, 570 is 22.6, vega64 is higher than 1080ti, even 34. However, as you can see, three rx570 = one vega64, but in terms of calculation power, 22.6 * 3 = 67.8, basically at the same price, 570 can be exchanged for twice the mining capacity of vega64
rx560, computing power is 11.6, price is 800, 6 pieces 560 = 1 vega64, computing power is 69.6, also has twice the mining capacity of vega64
RX 390 RX 470 480 560 570 580 and higher RX Vega
of course, Titan is also OK. You look down on miners
rx470 / 570 is the first choice, followed by 460 and 560
because the cost performance is too low, the computing power is not improved much, and the price is too expensive.
when building bitcoin, Nakamoto wants bitcoin to be a decentralized currency, not only for use and trading, but also for mining. But it backfired. With the increasing value of cryptocurrency such as bitcoin, mining has become an instry. The competition is more and more fierce, and the pursuit of mining computing power is higher and higher. Therefore, from ordinary computer mining, ASIC mining machine and GPU mining machine have evolved
the algorithm of ASIC mining machine is almost sha256, while the algorithm of GPU mining is different. For example, the algorithm of BTG is equihash, and the algorithm of BCD is optimized x13. Although it is not absolute, it can be simply considered that the currency of sha256 algorithm is generally mined by ASIC mining machine. Other algorithms are basically using GPU miner. There are also exceptions. Scrypt's Leyte coin used to be mined by GPU miner, but later scrypt's algorithm was also conquered by ASIC chips, such as ant miner L3 +, which is the ASIC miner used to dig Leyte coin
ASIC miner refers to the miner that uses ASIC chip as the core of computing power. ASIC is the abbreviation of application specific integrated circuit, which is a kind of electronic circuit (chip) specially designed for a specific purpose. Some mining machinery factories have designed ASIC chips specially for computing the sha256 algorithm of bitcoin, and the mining machinery using them is ASIC mining machinery. Because ASIC chip is only built for specific computing, its efficiency can be much higher than that of CPU. For example, the current mainstream ant miner S9 is ASIC miner, which uses 189 ASIC chips, the computing power reaches 13.5th/s, and the power consumption is only 1350W. As a comparison, the computing power of gtx1080ti, the flagship computer graphics card, will not exceed 60mh / s even if it is optimized well. The difference is tens of thousands of times
GPU miner refers to the miner that uses GPU graphics card as the core of computing power. Cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum, bitcoin and diamond use graphics algorithms, so the speed of computing with graphics card will be the highest. Compared with ASIC miner, GPU miner is more well-known, because it is a computer with enhanced graphics card configurationthe purpose of GPU miner is to make money, so we should pursue the power consumption ratio and maximum profit, so we should pay attention to the cost performance. Generally, the medium and high-end positioning graphics cards, such as AMD rx560 and rx570, have high power consumption ratio, which is a good choice for GPU miner. While flagship cards such as gtx1080ti and AMD vega64 have the strongest single card performance, they are not cost-effective in terms of price and power consumption
in addition, the ASIC miner also has some exotic procts, such as the USB miner of burning cat, which is slightly larger than the U disk, and the power consumption is only 2.25w, which is the smallest bitcoin miner at present
< / blockquote >the above quoted digcoin.com - "Introction to mining machinery classification" has many professional terms. I hope it can help you, thank you
at present, only gtx1060 5g version is not affected in the middle end. This card weakens the mining ability, the price is good, and the performance is also weakened, Moreover, this special network card can only be purchased from the omnipotent one.
a new high-end graphics card is coming out immediately. It seems that the 1080 and so on have no purchase value now. Of course, if they are enough local tyrants, they don't need to care about these things
vega56 is expensive, and vega64 is outrageous
chassis length can accommodate 32cm long graphics card (this graphics card is about 29-32cm)
by the way, this card is not cost-effective, so it's better to buy gtx1080, except for those with special needs (mining)
