ETH Miner low power consumption

If anyone wants to get some ETH mining done while there is still time. I ordered one, will let you know how it goes.

I’d be interested to see how that works out. Keep us updated

I tried to calculate the saving and cost to income ration for this miner but it doesn’t get better retruns than 2 3060TI LHR GPU’s. You can get 2 3060 LHR GPU’s for that price and get a hash rate of 90MH and earn $4-5 a day. The electricity costs may be a bit more but at the end of the day you mine different coins with GPU mining but with X4 we will be limited to certain coins specified in their list. Let me know you thoughts. I am sitting on the fence and needs a bit of push to get one.

What is the return of this?

Yeah I noticed the same thing however I discovered the delay and wait time is terrible to get the cards. These little ASICS are shipping now so that’s the difference … if there is a source you know of to get the cards relatively quickly that would be awesome ! And don’t give me masters info … His suppliers seem to be under water right now. :confused:. Nice work on the calcs !

One thing you need to consider too is the GpU needs a home ( rig with motherboard , operating system some
Memory etc )

I do have a good source to get the ASIC miners and they are also resellers for GPU cards.

So I did some deep dive last night with my existing GPU rig and with 2 cards I receive roughly $5.5 before the electricity costs, each card uses 120watts so that’s 240 watts for 2 cards on the other hand the X4 Brick gives $2-2.25 based on it’s hashrate of 65Mh/s but with only 30W.

Now w.r.t rig, The rig will cost another 1k for sure but the advantage of it you can mine any other algorithm which is on POW whereas for Brick you will be limited to ETCHash.

This is just my personal opinion. I have both ASIC box miners, GPU rigs and I try to balance them by making calculations like these to check which is more feasible, easy and can be setup for long term.
