Would it make sense to mine BTC with it?
- officeplant 5y agoAt this point it doesn't make sense to mine BTC on any GPU.
- grishka 5y agoBTC mining isn't memory-bound, it's compute-bound. The more sha256 hashes you can compute per second, the better. And I'm highly doubtful that any general-purpose hardware at all could even begin to compete with mining ASICs.
- Behemoth66 5y agoWould you or someone happen to know/guess the hash rate of the M1 Max?
- grishka 5y agoI don't think there's a definite answer to this. There's no existing bitcoin miner software optimized for Apple hardware. So, do you use the CPU? The GPU? Both? If you do use the GPU, which API do you use to program it?
