Only one of the four CMP cards (Cryptocurrency Mining Processor) announced by Nvidia and dedicated to cryptocurrency mining based on an Ampere GPU. The puzzle is then composed, after the confirmation in recent days that the first two proposals CMP 30HX and 40HX adopt GPUs based on Turing architecture.
According to the site sources
Videocardz, “only one of the four CMP HX cards will be based on Ampere architecture, so only one card will use Samsung’s 8-nanometer manufacturing process.” The solution in question is the most powerful, the CMP 90HX, based basically on the same design as the GeForce RTX 3080, with a GA102-100 GPU, 10 GB of memory and a 320W TGP. At the moment there are no details on the type of memory and the number of active CUDA cores on board this solution.
| 30HX | 40HX | 50HX | 90HX | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ethereum Hash Rate | 26 MH / s | 36 MH / s | 45 MH / s | 86 MH / s |
| TDP | 125 W | 185 W | 250 W | 320 W |
| Power connectors | 1x 8-pin | 1x 8-pin | 2x 8-pin | 2x 8-pin |
| Memory | 6GB | 8GB | 10GB | 10GB |
| Availability | Q1 | Q1 | Q2 | Q2 |
It therefore follows that the model CMP 50HX based on a Turing GPU, apparently the former flagship TU102. Perhaps we will have more details in the coming weeks, as the CMP 50HX and 90HX debuts approaching, expected during the second quarter. Nvidia has ensured that there will be no reflections on the availability of gaming GPUs (but to do worse possible?), So they are largely chips with some parts not working and therefore not adequate to end up on board a gaming card.
