Estimate the profits earned when using Threadripper to dig coins through Nicehash.
Meanwhile, with a 1080 GTX VGA in the same condition, the monthly profit is about 94.56 USD.
Estimate the profit earned when using 1080 GTX VGA to dig coins through Nicehash.
The above figure is just an estimate and the results depend on many other factors such as the optimal capabilities of the system, the number of cores and CPU flow that you set aside for digging coins, as well as the volatility prices between different crypto currencies.
But this has shown that using Threadripper to dig up crypto has a significant advantage over GPU. With the GPU, when digging money to encode the VGA, it must work in a 100% running state and then they can't do any work. But with Threadripper, AMD said, you only need to use about 50 ~ 70% of the CPU to dig up encryption and do other things with your computer. This means Intel's Core-i9 7900x 10-core CPU only delivers about 40% more crypto-digging performance than Threadripper.
In terms of price, both have similar prices, the Threadripper costs $ 899, while the current GTX 1080 ranges from 849 to 999 USD.
We will have to wait for other practical tests to confirm whether AMD's claim is true or not.
