ASUS presented the video card to miners
If you are planning to get a new computer or to upgrade existing, you probably faced with the fact that the stores are simply not available video cards or they are some unreal money. This is due to the increased recent popularity of cryptocurrency mining — the so-called mining. To learn more about this you can in our special material. The producers decided not to sit idly by. For example, ASUS announced just two graphics cards, designed specifically for mining cryptocurrencies: MINING-P106-6G NVIDIA GP106 and MINING-RX470-4G for AMD based systems Polaris 10.
Model MINING-P106-6G built on the basis of GPU NVIDIA GP106. It uses a 1280 CUDA cores operating at a clock frequency of 1506 MHz overclocked to 1708 MHz Boost mode, and 6 GB of video memory GDDR5 with a frequency of 8 GHz and a bus width of 192 bits. Thus, it is fully consistent with harakteristikam the reference version GeForce GTX 1060.
To use a MINING-P106-6G for anything except for mining, it is impossible. The graphics card is deprived of all outputs to display the image.
The second novelty was the model of the MINING-RX470-4G created on the basis of AMD 10 and Polaris is a special version of the Radeon RX 470. It is equipped with 2048 stream processors and 4 GB of memory GDDR5 with a frequency of 7 GHz and a bus width of 256 bits. It operates at a frequency of 926 MHz with overclocking to 1206 MHz.
In MINING-RX470-4G, there is only one connector Dual DVI-D allows you to display an image with a maximum resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels.
The model is equipped with dual-slot cooler with two fans. A similar solution is used in models of the ASUS Expedition. In MINING-P106-6G and MINING-RX470-4G ASUS used a protection from dust and fans on ball bearings. This should positively affect the durability of the cards. Also they are compatible with a utility for overclocking GPU Tweak II.
About the timing of the sales and the cost of a new graphics card for the overclockers ASUS has not reported.
