Mining has a lot of setup costs and some technical knowledge is required. What is a GPU Ethereum Miner? In order to mine Ethereum, you will need specialized hardware known as (GPU).

Ethereum’s developers originally intended for it to be mined on computer CPUs but miners later discovered that GPUs gave them more hashing power. So, in the most simplest of terms: a GPU is a specialized Ethereum mining computer. How can you find the best GPU and rig?

Some GPUs have a higher hash rate than others, while some use more electric power as well. In choosing the most efficient GPU the most important thing is striking a balance between how powerful you want your rig to be and how much you are willing to spend on the GPU itself and the electricity. Many of these costs will vary by country.

Is it cheap to buy GPUs in your country? Since most GPUs are sold on Amazon and eBay, if you live in a country where those retailers ship to then you will likely have an easier time getting the GPUs. Also, what is the cost of electricity in your country? Electricity costs are the deciding factor for most miners.

As we have seen with, miners in China, Iceland, and other places with cheap electricity have a huge advantage! Most efficient GPUs on sale • • • • • • • Now that you understand the factors that make GPU rigs good, here is a list and brief description of the most efficient GPUs on sale. Note that the power costs per day numbers used below were based on the global average cost of electricity and the price of on September 16, 2016. For more accurate estimates, use an. Calculate LBRY Credits LBC Mining. Radeon R9 295X2 The has by far the highest hash rate (46.0 MH/s) of the on the market and will cost you $600.

It has a power cost per day of about $1.44, a return per day of about $1.61 and a cost per MH/s of $13.04. This gives a return per year of $586.43. Radeon R9 HD 7990 A will cost you $680. Its power cost per day is lower than the R9 295X2 at $1.08 but its hash rate is significantly lower at 36 MH/s. Its return per day is $1.29 while its cost per MH/s is $18.89, giving it a return per year of $469.40. Radeon RX 480 The is most arguably the most economical in terms of cost and saving electricity.

Its power cost per day is significantly lower than the two that I have mentioned at $0.4320. Its hash rate is 25.0 MH/s, meaning its cost per MH/s is $7.96. This gives a return per day of $1.21 and therefore a return per year of $440.91. Radeon RX 480 will cost you $199. Radeon RX 470 A has a modest hash rate of 24.0MH/s. Its power cost per day is exactly the same as the Radeon RX 480 at $0.4320.

Its cost per MH/s is $9.13, giving it a return per day of $1.15 and a return per year of $418.16. Radeon RX 470 will cost you $219. Now that you know the best Ethereum mining hardware,. If you don’t want to mine you can always just.
