I still don't understand how Whatsminer was able to achieve efficiency on par with 7nm tech while using 16nm!
Someone mentioned overclocking, but it's pretty hard to believe that they got almost twice as efficient from overclocking alone. If this is how they did it, does that mean that the M10 probably couldn't be overclocked further by the end user?
Okay they got a m3 using 28nm to do about 166 watts a th
The antminer s7 did about 250 watts a th so they were more then 30% better
So the s9i does about 96 watts a th on a 16nm chip
An improvement of 30% would be about 67 watts a th on a 16 nm chip.
Since they did 30% once they may be able to do it again.
Your idea of overclocking it is like me insisting to drive my Kia Forte at 162 kilometer per hour.
Or 100 miles an hour if American .
What I find interesting is if they succeed on the 16nm chip.
And the 7nm chip does 65 watts per then will they drop that to 45 watts. but that would be the the m13 in 2020
