Bitcoin cpugpu

1. 1. CPU is mainly optimized for serial instructions, while GPU is optimized for massively parallel operations
2. Modern multi-core CPU aims at instruction set parallelism (ILP) and task parallelism (TLP), while GPU is data parallelism (DLP)
3. GPU often has a larger bandwidth of memory, that is, the so-called video memory, so it will also have good performance in high throughput applications
4. CPU is a general-purpose operation. In short, it means brainless calculation and violent calculation. Whether it's 100 children sharing apples or simulating the earth, it can be decomposed into the most basic calculation of 1 + 1 = 2. GPU is specially designed to deal with high-order mathematical algorithms, such as calculating the relative positions of light source, object, viewpoint and shadow, which requires trigonometric functions to be piled up. The bitcoin digger uses SHA-256, a secure hash function invented by the US National Security Agency, which is generally used for password encryption and decryption. This algorithm can perform a large number of 32-bit integer right-rotate operations, which is very suitable for GPU which is good at large-scale concurrent computing and password cracking.

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

3. It's bitcoin. It can only use GPU, which is graphics card

4. Bitcoin was acquired by CPU in the early days, e to different working methods. CPU is mainly to do full-function operation, the number of core is small, and the operation ability is limited (GPU is a very large number of operation core for special operation). With the advantages of GPU general computing and the continuous development of GPU speed, miners graally began to use GPU instead of CPU for mining. Bitcoin mining uses SHA-256 hash operation, which will carry out a large number of 32-bit integer cyclic right shift operation. Interestingly, this algorithm operation can be implemented by a single hardware instruction in AMD GPU, while it needs three hardware instructions to simulate in NVIDIA GPU. This one alone brings an additional 1.7 times of computing efficiency advantage for AMD GPU. With this advantage, amd GPU is favored by the majority of miners. At present, it has left GPU computing. At present, miners have begun to widely use integrated circuit (ASIC) mining machine. Although this kind of mining machine can only be used to dig bitcoin, other currencies can not be used yet, but a single mining machine can reach the level of megabytes, especially loved by mine owners in Sichuan, Guizhou and other regions. Tens of thousands of professional mining machines are in full swing, and retail investors are unlikely to get bitcoin in the face of such powerful computing power.

5. Mining software, from the programming principle, is about large-scale parallel computing
there are many stream processors in GPU of graphics card. For example, the old HD5770 has 800 stream processors, which is equivalent to 800 computing cores. In recent years, the mainstream high-end graphics card has more built-in stream processors and more powerful computing performance. Using GPU for mining operation, the stream processor is used for parallel operation, and the mining program also optimizes the GPU parallel operation, so the operation efficiency is particularly high, and the efficiency of bitcoin mining has been greatly improved
the number of CPU cores is relatively small. At present, the number of the most powerful mainstream desktop processor cores is no more than 10 or 20 (many are logic cores virtualized by hyper threading technology), and the parallel computing power is far less than that of GPU.

6. At least dozens of times as much as CPU, and bitcoin uses OpenCL. The efficiency of 7 series a card is much higher than that of N card.

7. It's OK. It's easy to use. There are 1960 information type blockchain networks in China and more than 90000 overseas. You can see a lot of information blockchain websites such as "blockchain XX network" directly through the domestic network "blockchain network".

DCC lending chain is not MLM, the specific analysis is as follows:

1. DCC lending chain is a smart lending contract proct based on blockchain technology, which is launched by famous Japanese financial experts and Japanese domestic financial companies. The purpose of loan chain is to give intangible digital assets the same status as real estate, and to carry out mortgage short-term lending and financing lending within the controllable range of value

Second, MLM refers to the illegal act of organizers' development personnel to obtain wealth by developing personnel or requiring the personnel to be developed to obtain the qualification to join in on the condition of paying certain fees. The essence of MLM is "Ponzi scheme", that is to say, the money of later comers is distributed to the income of former comers

the new type of MLM: it does not restrict personal freedom, does not accept ID cards and mobile phones, and does not take big classes collectively. Instead, it uses capital operation as a banner to pull people to cheat money, drives luxury cars, wears gold and silver, and uses money to attract your relatives and friends to join, and finally makes you lose all your money

extended data:

Network loan risk

1. The virtuality of network transaction leads to the inability to authenticate the credit status of both sides of the loan, which is prone to fraud and default disputes

2. Among the large amount of information about lenders released by the network platform, many of them issued loans in the name of "loan company" and "financing company". In fact, only financial institutions approved by the state can engage in financial services such as credit financing. Those who engage in financial activities without authorization will be investigated for legal responsibility for "illegal fund-raising" and "illegal attraction of public deposits" and disturbing the order of financial management

3. If the loan is issued on behalf of the network platform, then the network platform is lax in self-discipline, or the internal control proceres are invalid, or it is used by others, then the situation of fabricating loan information and illegal fund-raising may occur
