On the 19th, NVIDIA announced that it will release the NVIDIA CMP (Cryptocurrency Mining Processor) specialized in mining.

The reason for Nvidia’s announcement of Nvidia CMP, a product line for specialized mining, is to address the special needs of Ethereum mining. This product line is not used for graphics work such as general games, and is optimized for mining performance and efficiency. In short, it cannot be used as a general GPU, and even if it runs with other GPUs, it does not affect the graphics processing power.

Since CMP does not have a display output, it can improve the air flow during mining to enable more dense packing. In addition, the low peak core voltage and frequency improved mining power efficiency.
