MSI Launches CMP 50HX MINER Card

This new dedicated mining card from MSI offers hashrate of around 45 MH/sec.

Taken from Videocardz … NVIDIA promised to launch its CMP 30HX and CMP 40HX mining cards in the first quarter with 50HX and 90HX models following in the next three months. Well, this quarter is almost over, which means that higher-end mining cards can finally be shown, and they have. But isn’t this a bit too late?

When the CMP HX series was announced everyone expected CMP 50HX to feature the same or very similar specs as RTX 2080 TI, simply because both cards were to offer similar hash rate performance in Ethereum mining.

As it turns NVIDIA wasn’t lying when they said CMP HX cards are unfit to carry the GeForce branding. The CMP 50HX is the first TU102 model to feature 3584 CUDA cores, that’s even fewer cores than RTX 2080 Ti (4352 cores), the most cut-down TU102 graphics card. According to MSI specs, there are 1024 cores missing from the full TU102 silicon, which reduces the peak FP32 performance to 11 TFLOPs.

There is also a change in memory specs. This mining model carries 10GB GDDR6 memory across the 320-bit interface, which also represents 1024 Megabytes missing from the RTX 2080 Ti specs.
