Mining hardware comparison
See also: Non-specialized hardware comparison
Below are statistics about the Bitcoin Mining performance of ASIC hardware and only includes specialized equipment that has been shipped.
GPUs, CPUs and other hardware not specifically designed for Bitcoin mining can be found in the Non-specialized_hardware_comparison.
Notes:
- Mhash/s = millions hashes per second (double sha256 raw speed performance; may not be very energy efficient with some models)
- Mhash/J = millions hashes per joule (energy efficiency; 1 joule of energy is 1 watt during 1 second: 1 J = 1 W*s)
- W = watt (maximum power consumption, i.e. energy per unit of time: 1 W = 1 J/s)
ASIC
Be sure to research any of these vendors and machines intensely before spending any money.
