Amd5700 graphics card mining
The first step in setting up mining equipment is to choose the right hardware. This article will focus on GPU (graphics card) mining, of course, you can use CPU or ASIC equipment mining. Amd graphics card architecture is very beneficial to mining. NVIDIA card is not suitable for mining because of its low hash rate. The best NVIDIA graphics cards are less than 0.5 megahash. Notebook Hardware mining is not as good as NVIDIA card, which is a bad option for mining. You need to use a desktop system for mining. There is a desktop system to ensure adequate cooling of the hardware
the graphics card or card needs to be able to match the motherboard, and the power supply must have enough PCI-E connectors. Before determining the graphics card, pay attention to these. In order for the system to cool down sufficiently, you need to remove the cover of the chassis in order to get better heat dissipation. This is what people call "open air rig.". If you can aim the system at a fan or air conditioner, you can make the device cooler when it's running, thus extending its life and keeping it efficient

while NVIDIA graphics card provides less computing resources, mainly through software optimization to achieve game acceleration. In addition, game n card simplifies some moles used in scientific computing (mining just belongs to this kind of Computing),
therefore, in the face of mining, which is a simple and high load operation, the N card with weak body will not work
for now, the design between AMD and NVIDIA is more and more similar. The a-card part absorbs the advantages of serial and branch judgment of n-card, and the n-card part also adopts the simple violence stack design of a-card. So who has the advantage is a mathematical proportion problem, whose graphics card is more accurate to the proportion planning of game resources, whose performance is better
so mining depends on the efficiency of the algorithm. A card is really good at an algorithm called SHA-256, which was used in violent decoding before (so a card also has a good performance in violent decoding)
unfortunately, in order to rece the power consumption, n card has actually simplified some scientific computing moles. As we said downstairs, the CPU is good at the work of branch judgment. N card no longer relies on itself, instead, it has been deleted, leaving this part of the work to the CPU to the processor, so the general computing performance is weaker than a card. As for the advantages of N card in the field of professional card for a card mentioned by some people, it mainly depends on the early investment and construction in the application of software in the past, that is, the early optimization is still in place, and now the old customers are still eating well
it is true that Tianhe first used 4870 as accelerator card, but there may be a mistake, that is, it was not NVIDIA's Tesla that was used by new Tianhe, but Titan, another supercomputer, which was not entirely Tesla processor, but also AMD's Haolong processor for collaborative computing. In fact, tianhe-2 uses Intel's Xeon Phi processor, neither amd nor NVIDIA.
According to amdq1's financial report last year, the graphics card used for mining in Q1 has accounted for 1 / 10 of AMD's revenue. If it is put into the graphics card business alone, the proportion of mining graphics card will be even more amazing. The revenue brought by mining is like opium, which has consumed AMD's fighting spirit. A GCN architecture will be built for another three years. NVIDIA almost monopolizes the share of graphics cards on steam platform, and if it goes on like this, amd graphics cards will become a thing of the past. Fortunately, last year's mine disaster awakened AMD in sleepwalking
has not been listed yet, so it will rece the price. Just like mobile phones, it shows that the competition in the graphics card market is very fierce. NVIDIA has been suffering for a long time. In a stagnant graphics card market, not only amd can't see hope, but also users can't see hope. How much more money is wasted. I hope amd can seize this opportunity, not to mention the success of NVIDIA, but at least be equal to NVIDIA and rece the price of graphics card
