Mining tide
The graphics card market in 2017 is the most special in recent years. In the past few years, no graphics card will increase its price by 100% a few months after its release. RX 580 has achieved this goal. Together with all the graphics cards below 3000 yuan, it has broken through the premium point in an irresistible manner. All this happened with the bitcoin price breaking through 3000 US dollars. After miners swept the RMB 2000 RX 580, the price of low-end RX 560 and even GTX 1050 Ti increased to varying degrees. However, is the price directly proportional to the ability of hash algorithm? Recently, we did a test to collect the new generation of graphics cards at various prices on the market, test the mining speed of Ethernet and bitcoin, and see which card has the highest cost performance
Different from the thousand yuan market, this wave of mining tide has a great impact on high-end graphics cards. In the test results, RX 580 and Rx 480 have almost reached the bottom of GTX 1070. Moreover, the price of Rx 580 is even competing with that of GTX 1070, so the miners directly swept the 3000 yuan market when GTX 1060 3gb / 6GB is out of stock, and GTX 1070 is basically out of stock. The more advanced GTX 1080 is also out of stock, but it's not clear whether the players are forced to go directly to the high-end card or the miners extend their claws to this market. The situation of GTX 1080 ti is only slightly improved, but it's not much better. However, not everyone can afford the 6000 yuan graphics card. Only the top players will be affected, but it's just a narrower choice. It's not the case that the rich can't buy itsummary:
to mine, the first choice is the graphics card with more than 3gb video memory, which is the basis. In addition, the core frequency will affect the mining speed. We have two GTX 1080 cards on hand, one is public version, and the other is MSI GTX 1080 gaming X. the operating frequencies of the two cards are 1885mhz and 1936mhz respectively. After testing, because of the frequency, the latter will be about 4% faster than the former in actual mining. The advantages of high-frequency graphics card are highlighted
So Xiaobian's opinions and suggestions are as follows:the low-end card and the old architecture card are not suitable for mining. GTX 1080 ti is an extreme, with the most powerful performance, but the price is not suitable for large-scale procurement. The mining speed of a card with the same location is much faster than that of N card, The cost performance of GTX 1060 3gb is higher than that of GTX 1060 6GB. The frequency and the number of stream processors / CUDA have a great influence on the performance of the card. The size of video memory has no influence on the mining. It's enough. Different video cards will have different profits if they dig different coins. If you want to further explore, you need to test several currencies, Limited to space, we only select two representative currencies to test
as long as the mine disaster does not occur, the shortage will last for a long time. However, if there is a mine disaster, a large number of second-hand mine cards will directly enter the market. These cards are always running at full load and full speed, and their service life is greatly shortened compared with that of ordinary users. Even if the price is lower, they will roll over at any time, There is no need to start at all. Moreover, the second-hand market will be directly disrupted. At that time, it will be difficult for some normal users to get out of the second-hand market, and the deep-water fish's Dragon killing knife will explode the galaxy. Now it is said that NVIDIA is making some graphics cards without display output interface, which are provided to miners as mine cards. With a certain capacity, if the mine card still can't satisfy the miners, won't the miners buy the graphics card in the consumer market? The only function of these special mine cards is to prevent mine cards from flowing into the second-hand market, which can not alleviate the current shortage of graphics cards
this encryption card for graphics card expansion can expand up to 8 graphics cards for mining (provided that your computer has at least 6 PCI-E slots). However, there are motherboards specially used for mining in the market, such as Yingtai's own tb150. Yingtai cryptomining card can be inserted into the pci-ex1 slot, or this encryption card can be inserted into the side of some pci-ex16 adapter cards, so as to maximize the mining capacity. With this cryptomining card, any platform can be transformed into a mining machine. It depends on whether you have money to build a mining platform
in fact, this cryptominingcard is specially designed for Yingtai motherboard. Gaming series, hi fi series and T series are all compatible, but it is not clear whether they can be used in other motherboard brands.

What they do is sell as soon as they dig. Under the current heat, you can sell as soon as you dig. Because the price of money is high, the unit income is also very high. They sell after digging, the income is high, and they are happy. So what are they worried about? After the mine disaster, after the massive rise of computing power, after the price falls, can they make money in the future. To make money, of course, you need to change the mode, but this mode of making money is only suitable for those "real miners" with sufficient funds and financial awareness. We see that many websites that calculate mining income will give you daily income and payback time. Of course, let's not talk about the daily income of 90W. At present, the mining income of graphics card is very high. This is a fact, right. Well, as he said, one of the problems is that a lot of computing power will increase, which will cause your current income to decline all the time. Then he listed a lot of formulas{ RRRRR}
