Nvidia unleashed a new most powerful GPU in the world at the end of last week, and now the Nvidia Titan V has been benchmarked in terms of its virtual currency mining power.
The good folks at BitsBeTrippin conducted mining tests on the Titan V in a rig powered by a 16-core Ryzen Threadripper 1950X in an Asus ROG Zenith Extreme motherboard with 64GB of DDR4 memory, with a 1300W EVGA Supernova G2 power supply. CPU liquid cooling was supplied by a Corsair H110i.
So how did Nvidia’s new graphics card with 110 teraflops of computing power perform when it came to mining?
When overclocked, mining Ethereum it managed 77 MH/s while drawing 237W of power. Without any overclocking, straight out of the box the card achieved 70 MH/s. Check out BitsBeTrippin’s video below for further performance results.
That’s a pretty impressive performance, and roughly twice as fast as AMD’s Radeon RX Vega 64. However, the obvious rub is that the Titan V will set you back $2,999 or £2,700, compared to the Vega 64 which can be had for around $650 or £550 online at the time of writing.
Value proposition
So the figures obviously don’t stack up in terms …read more
