Mining cards still need mining machines to save them

Bitmain launches pre-order service for the new E3 Antminer, with a hashrate of 180MH/s, priced at $800, and will be delivered in July:

This mining machine specializes in the Ethash algorithm and can liberate a large number of enslaved Ethereum mining cards, thereby alleviating the current supply and demand situation in the graphics card market.

The majority of miners, especially those large-scale miners, can move to ASIC mining machines as soon as possible. They are superior to PC graphics cards in terms of computing power, efficiency, deployment and management.

Attached is the computing power comparison table:

With the support of a dedicated driver, the graphics card can only reach more than 30 MH even if it is super smoking; the E3 mining machine can easily reach 180MH, which is cost-effective. And there may be new graphics cards on the market in July, so please give Volta a break.

It is said that Bitmain buys 20,000 wafers from TSMC every month just for the S9 mining machine, and its business scale even exceeds that of NVIDIA, making it the industry's leading large customer. Coupled with the likes of X3 and E3, PC Daddy sincerely hopes that mining ASICs can completely and thoroughly eliminate mining cards.

For example, a mining boss is selling used equipment on Craigslist - 85 GTX 1080s plus 15 Vega 64s, 18 power supplies, 17 motherboards, and memory, SSD and other accessories, with a package price of $79,000:
