This guide helps you match the right hardware to your budget, holding horizon, and hosting setup. Hardware prices fluctuate; see each product page for current pricing.
Quick Decision Guide#
Choose the M70 if:
- You want a top tier air cooled machine at 214 to 242 TH/s
- You're testing hosted mining before committing to a larger fleet
- You want flexible power modes from about 3,140 to 5,000 W
Choose the M70S if:
- You plan to hold long term: the 13.5 J/TH rating keeps electricity per TH low over time
- You're building a fleet and want a 13.5 J/TH rating on every unit
- You want up to 264 TH/s in an air cooled chassis
Choose the M73 if:
- You need maximum hashrate in minimum rack space
- Noise and density are critical constraints (hydro is nearly silent)
- You have hydro cooling infrastructure available
- You want up to 526 TH/s in a single chassis at 14.5 J/TH
