Rx vega 64 beats titan v by mining the monero cryptocurrency

Cryptocurrency mining is fast becoming an important benchmark when measuring GPU sales, and the launch of TITAN V was no different. Mining is taking over the sales of graphics cards and the absolute hashing performance is one of the main factors influencing the purchasing decisions of these miners. Even if you are not a miner and simply want the GPU to pay for itself, you will want to know what your purchase is capable of. Today, we have some very interesting evidence comparing the newly released TITAN V against AMD's trusty RX Vega 64.

RX VEGA 64 wins the tug at TITAN V mining

We had already seen the mining performance of TITAN V with Etherium, which exceeds 77 MH / s, but in this comparison we wanted to level the playing field a bit by offering AMD an opportunity to perform to the fullest, and that's where it came into play. the XMR Monero based on CryptoNight.

It seems that RX Vega 64 still has a few tricks up its sleeve, armed with Blockchain, not only capable of beating TITAN V in terms of profitability per day, but, if electricity costs aren't a concern, it also beats competition in terms of gross performance.

RX VEGA seems to have an advantage when mining a CryptoNight- based coin like Monero, but there are other alternatives that use it as well. Below is a list of these Monero-like cryptocurrencies.
