Hi !

I am new to ASIC mining, I'm more of a GPU miner kinda guy.

But recently I started to look for ASIC miners and stumbled accross the Baikal Giant A900.

I've never heard about Multi-algo ASIC miners so I was curious.

I have some concerns though, I don't know how to calculate the profit of the A900.

I know it can automatically switch between multiple Algo but can it mine them simultaneously ?

On the Nicehash Profitability Calculator, I enter the Power usage, the cost and then all the X11,X13,X15,Qubit and Quark mining speed (each 900MH/s)

It says I would do around $7 CAD a day or around $250 per month of profit. (0.0226 BTC a month)

But if I only enter one algo (e.g X11 @ 900Mh/s), I only do around $6 a month instead of per day.

But, if I enter X13 @ 900MHs, it says I'll do around 0.0218 BTC a month ($230 CAD)

Or, if I enter X15 @ 900MHs, it says I would do around 0.0195 BTC a month ($210 CAD)

and so on...

So I was wondering how this miner works and if I should even order one...

Otherwise, I had my eyes on the Antminer D3 or S7 (which are in my price range) which does 15GHs only on X11 or 4.7THs only on SHA256 (only one algo per miner).


Thank you !

You will not be able to mine ALL coins simultaneously.

You will have to choose the best profit one and go on it.

If I use something like Nicehash Multi-Algo that can switch automatically, it will do it for me ?

As seen here: https://www.nicehash.com/imgs/multi-algo2.png

And which pool supports X14 ? I know the A900 can mine X14 but I have yet to see a website support it...

(I don't know how to hyperlink on this website with the button)

Thank you !
