the VRAMs are still gddr6x, GPU mining is mostly VRAM mining.

if they claim it is 50% improvement, maybe for the core, but for mining 15-20% improvement is not so enticing. 20% is a huge leap for the same VRAM tech..maybe it is 10% or less (refresh) hehe.

on the other hand models with 4nm means cooler core, core and VRAMs are on the same board..these might mine cooler, other than that, it might not be worth it.

Memory wise will be the same, dont think we will have any improvements on memory nm reduction, core wise will have a huge reduction in power consumption.

I don't have high hopes for 4xxx

1080ti gddr5x
2080ti gddr6
3xxx lower tier gddr6
3xxx higher tier gddr6x

now..
4xxx gddr6x for higher tier..

AMD HBM2 should take the cake.


HBM2 is worth for mining?

I mean HBM2e

typo, forgot the "e"

amd might release one with display output..

...aaand already have one, also outrageous price and no display port too LOL https://optocrypto.com/amd-instinct-mi210-is-listed-in-japan-for-16000-usd/

Any variant of HBM should absolutely have good ETH hashrate as well as decent hashrate on other memory-intensive coins like CFX, ERG or FLUX, as long as the bus width is wide enough. The core will have more than enough TFLOPs to not cause a bottleneck.

I see a very expensive price and I don't see mining tests. I think that for this price I will build a mining farm with a higher hashrate and I will have a 3 year warranty from the seller.
Tesla video cards also have excellent characteristics, but miners do not buy them because of the impossibility to recoup the investment.

ETH to 10k aaaaaaaaaaaaand you'll buy those expensive cards LOL..market fucks both ways hehe

or

it is a boring bear market with those boring 4xxx series (like the 2xxx series with the previous bear market), then 5xxx then bull run.
