Hardware Basics for Mining
While you can mine on most computers, better hardware equals better results.
CPU (Most Important):
Best Performance
AMD Ryzen 9, Ryzen Threadripper, or Intel Xeon
Good Performance
Ryzen 7, Intel i7/i9 with high core count
More cores/threads = more parallel AI training tasks handled
RAM:
Minimum
16 GB DDR4
Recommended
32 GB+ high-frequency RAM
Faster RAM reduces bottlenecks when loading AI models
Storage:
SSD required for fast read/write access to datasets and logs
Network:
Stable broadband (min 10 Mbps up/down)
Low latency improves job turnaround times
