In 2023, is it suitable to use miners to mine or buy coins? In recent years, with the increasing popularity of blockchain technology and the rapid development of digital currency, more and more people have joined the team of mining and buying of coins. In 2023, for most people, choosing to use a miner to mine or buy coins will be a critical decision. Advantages and disadvantages of miners High power consumption, high cost, and high technical requirements are the salient features of miners' mining. But at the same time, miners also have a stable income from mining and have the advantage of controlling the speed of block verification. Here are a few viable Bitcoin miners and their profitability in 2023. Antminer S19 Pro is a miner produced by Bitmain , which is very popular in the market. It is equipped with 114 BM1398 ASIC chips , which can achieve a faster and more stable mining experience. It is estimated that the average daily income of this type of miner in 2023 will exceed 120
Tutorial: ETH Miner with Nvidia P106-100 Graphics Cards
Nvidia P106-100 Ethereum GPU Miner supports ETH, Zcash, XMR, and other multi-currency mining. Motherboard (ASUS ROG STRIX B250H GAMING), graphics card, power supply and other components are carefully selected and of high quality. The ETH mining speed of six NVIDIA P106-100 graphics cards is as high as 120MH~140MH.

Miner connection
· The configuration requires a computer monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse. (Only needed if you configure miners).
· The connection method of the miner is the same as that of the PC. Like the computer, all the required ports are on the miner's back.
· The required ports are:
HDMI port: for connecting a monitor (DVI port can also be used)
USB port x 2: for connecting keyboard and mouse
Ethernet port·
· Connect the monitor, keyboard, mouse, ethernet cable, power cable, etc., to the miner.
• The connection is complete.
Mining settings
There is a power button on the miner's front, press it and turn on the miner.
·It is recommended to use a Windows computer to operate the mining system settings of the miner.
· Mining configuration is like mining with your PC's graphics card if you don't know how to access it on the internet easily. It is recommended to use the recommended software to ensure that you can start mining in the fastest time possible. We will use ETH and Zcash as examples to illustrate.
· There are ETH and Zcash mining shortcuts on the desktop. they are:
eth&etc: ETH/ETC mining shortcut.
zecnminer: Zcash mining shortcut.
MSI Afterburner: ETH/ETC overclocking (only for ETH/ETC overclocking)
ETH mining settings
· Double-click the "eth&etc" shortcut.
· If using this installation software, please:
Make sure "Coin Type" is ETH;
Change the wallet address to your own ETH wallet address;
Click the "START/STOP" button to start mining;
ETH mining will start automatically.
ETC mining settings
· Click the "START/STOP" button to stop mining;
· Switch the "currency" to ETC;
· Change the wallet address to your own ETC wallet address;
· Click the "START/STOP" button to start mining;
ETH / ETC overclocking mining settings
Note: The overclocking tutorial described below is only for ETH/ETC mining. Please do not use it for ZEC or other currencies.
· Start ETH/ETC mining.
· Wait for the mining software to run stably.
· Double-click the "MSI Afterburner" shortcut on the desktop.
· Change the "Memory Clock" to overclock the miner.
Change "Memory Clock" to a higher value;
Click the "Save" button to save the changes.
· In general, the larger the value of "Memory Clock," the faster the hashing speed, but it is not recommended to set the value too high to prolong the miner's life. In our tests, when the "Memory Clock" is set to "700", the hash speed of ETH will reach 140MH/s.
· You can also click the "Restore" button to restore to the default value (0, which means no overclocking).
ZEC mining settings
· Double-click "zecnminer" software;
· Change the wallet address to your own ZEC wallet address;
· Click the "START/STOP" button to start mining;
· ZEC mining will start automatically.
Automatically start mining settings
· This operation can be used if the mining software supports "Auto Start Mining."
· After starting mining, click the two options in the upper left corner of the software.
· Then, after you restart (or power off/on) the miner, the software will run automatically.
Troubleshooting
Q: The hash rate speed is lower than usual (e.g., 100MH/s for ETH). Only 5 (or fewer) GPUs work, not all 6.
A:
· First, make sure all video cards are working correctly.
Right-click "My Computer" on the desktop and click "Manage" in the pop-up menu;
In the pop-up window, click "Device Management" -> "Graphics Card";
There should be six Nvidia P106-100 graphics cards.
· If 6 Nvidia P106-100 graphics cards are not shown, it is possible that some of the graphics cards in the case came loose during shipping.
· In this case, please turn off the miner's power first, open the miner's case, and insert these graphics cards correctly and firmly.
· There are four screws on the miner chassis.
·Take out the screws and slide the case out in the direction of knowledge.
We can see six graphics cards in the miner; make sure each card is connected via the blue cable to the motherboard.
·Cables may come loose during transportation; please make sure all cables are plugged in tightly.
· Reboot and see if all graphics cards are displayed in Device Management.
