Asic's or gpu's. Whats you're posion

in #bitcoin7 years ago

So there has been some talk around referencing Asic miners and gpu's and what may be the better solution. Personally I am a gpu miner. Even though Asic's give you phenomenal hash rates; the price of one is quite expensive and the manuverability between what coins you are able to mine are limited.fir example the s9 Asic miner gives you a large hash rate but you are only able to mine sha256 coins. In a note year there will be a stronger Asic out and the miner you bought won't be as powerful as the difficulty rises. The same concept with the l3 lite coin miner. Gpu mining give a totally different experience and dynamic. Gpu's are able to mine a whole list of currencies. Basically everything that can me mined you can mine with gpu. That is not the case with asics. Yes gpu's are not cheap either, but let's say bit coin was to crash. With a gpu you can just switch coins you want to mine with an Asic you only able to choose a certain few coins. Asic's are great but gpu's are stable.
