There is really no pie in the sky! 600 yuan 1060 graphics card do not touch

Since Bitcoin was formally suspended, as the world's largest ore producer, many “mine owners” have begun to swell with the trend, and large-scale sales of “mining” equipment, such as salted fish, have begun to emerge in large numbers on ultra-low-cost graphics cards. Xiao Bian continuous search for a few days, sort out the current situation, here is also a warning to the little friends: the miner's video card touch do not touch!

We first posted a picture of the seller of salted fish, we look at the price, 550 yuan 1060 6GB, 900 yuan, 1070, 1,200 yuan 1080, 1500 1080Ti! There are 550 yuan 570,700 yuan 580 graphics card, so amazing!

Is the price very scary? Although this is a wholesale price, but Xiao Bian carefully searched, basically 6GB 1060 mining video cards are 600 yuan in the average price, compared to the original price of a few thousand dollars a lot cheaper. But then, Xiao Bian posted a few more photos, so that everyone can understand the use of mine cards you understand.

This is a map of another seller. To tell the truth, this is a good mining environment. The video cards that have been eliminated will be sold after a simple clean-up. Are you tempted? Don't worry, look.

The graphics card mining is nothing more than the use of the parallel computing capabilities of the graphics card, continuously calculating data day and night, and then converging into digital virtual currency such as Bitcoin. This process requires the graphics card to run for 24 hours, which means it is always at 100% full load. In addition, in order to maximize the interests of the pursuit, the graphics card is basically placed in a cluster array, the cooling environment is not ideal, this way, the video card's several core components will be seriously depleted, simply saying that the overdraw video card "life."

The first is the power supply module. The power supply module needs high load to provide stable current, and the capacitor, voltage regulator chip, and Mos tube must undergo extremely cruel "torture" and life must be greatly reduced.

Then there is memory. The most afraid of memory is actually high temperature. No one will care about this kind of thing when mining, but video memory has always been working in a high temperature environment. This is not just a matter of hours when we play games at home. 7 ×24 time memory has been working under high temperature environment, and the life expectancy has been greatly shortened due to electron transfer.

The last is the graphics core, it stands to reason that the core should be the graphics card in the most "durable" core components, but do not worry, look at the following figure shows the color of the core back to say. Defocused yellow means that in the harsh working environment with high temperature and full load, the core of the graphics card is subjected to the most extreme test. In this case, the core working life is also barely left. This is why the graphics card manufacturer specifically proposed the mine card does not guarantee. One of the fundamental reasons, don't forget that when we are at home, the graphics card will automatically be down-protected in high temperature environments. There is no such mechanism when mining.

Now, do you understand why the video card can't buy mine cards? Xiaobian sums it up again, for the small friends to refer to:

1. When the video card for mining is full-loaded for 7×24 hours, the life of the components is bound to be affected, accelerated aging, and the service life is greatly reduced;

2, the pursuit of the interests of the miner to maximize the graphics side-by-side placement of space crowded, there is no good auxiliary cooling means, graphics long-term work in the high temperature limit environment, life expectancy has been greatly shortened;

3, do not ignore the so-called digging only one month, two months, three months of such rhetoric, meaningless, and even unscrupulous businessmen through the chemical plate washer water to revamp the video, looks like the new card, be sure to be careful!

4, mine card without warranty! Mine card without warranty! Mine card without warranty! The important thing to say three times, no matter how long the mine card is used, the graphics card manufacturers have the detection means to judge whether or not to mine, not to eat big losses. Remember that there is no good thing in the sky!
