because it can mine efficiently bitcoin much better than any gpu, for example

one asic antmienr s9 is running at 14TH, the most powerful gpu only 1gh, you can see here that one single asic is 14,000 times more faster than a gpu, while consuming only 14x of a gpu

1000 times more efficient, for the best gpu right now 1070 nvidia and 470/480 amd are the best choice

AMD RX 470 4GB

?

That's pretty good for altcoin mining, I'd suggest AMD over Nvidia for this anyways since Nvidia cards just seem to have issues with a lot of mining softare

why is antiminer s9 better than video cards?

what is a best?

Both.

S-9 will directly mine btc

Gpu can mine an Alt coin that you can trade for btc.

So if you have a s9. Mining btc directly

And a six card gpu mining eth the cashing to BTC

the gpu rig has been doing better the last month.

Many times the s9 does better

I do both. So it evens'out.

which graphic card is a best for a mining?

Because S9 is a computer specifically made for bitcoin mining, it is highly efficient and has an enormous processing capacity (hashing) when compared to graphic cards.

You can still mine bitcoin with graphic cards but you'll need to spend a lot of more money to achive the same results as dedicated hardware.
