MSI Launches CMP 50HX MINER with 3584 CUDA Cores
MSI has recently launched the first NVIDIA Cryptocurrency Mining Processor (CMP) 50HX model with the MSI CMP 50HX MINER. The CMP 50HX is the third card in the CMP lineup above the CMP 30HX and CMP 40HX and a step below the flagship as of yet unreleased CMP 90HX. The CMP 50HX was expected to feature nearly identical specifications to the RTX 2080 Ti due to the similar reported mining performance and the fact that 30HX and 40HX models were derived from consumer cards. MSI has revealed that the CMP 50HX does use the TU102 but with only 3584 CUDA core compared to the 4352 cores found with the RTX 2080 Ti, the 50HX also features less memory with only 10 GB GDDR6. These core and memory reductions do come with a small power requirement reduction from 250 W to 225 W however dual 8-pin power connectors are still required. The MSI CMP 50HX card features a blower cooler design with a small plastic window and no display outputs.

一年後には「なんでこんな奇妙なカードを発売したのだろうか？」
と笑い話になっている。
メーカーは2018年に犯した過ちから何も学んでいない。
Electronic garbage.
A year later, "Why did you release such a strange card?"
It is a funny story.
Manufacturers haven't learned anything from the mistakes they made in 2018.
This way miners can still sell them for Media centre PCs that can maybe even run some golden oldies, but mostly keep them undesirable to gamers after the latest technologies and higher FPS/resolutions.
Anyways, all I can say is, I don't ever want to compete for a GPU again with miners, especially single individuals who buy up so much stock... warehouses full and we gamers get nothing, creating shortages and ruin the market price-wise too, no, just no.
I do wonder if these crypto cards have higher binned dies for lower power consumption also. Would be pretty sad if they did.
