Just got my hands on the Hotmine X6 and wow, it’s supposed to be a beast at 7.4 Th/s. Anyone else tried it? What do you think about the power consumption too, I heard it’s 1150W.
Thoughts on the Hotmine X6 ASIC Miner

The X6 is built on 16nm tech, which is pretty impressive. But I have a feeling they’re not making it anymore. Saw a link to the WX12 instead, and it’s way pricier than what the X6 used to be.
Yeah, I noticed that too! The X6 was around $540 but now it’s hard to find, and the upgrade kits for the X5/X6 are just gone. Seems like they’re focusing on higher wattage models now. Kinda sucks for those of us who prefer lower consumption.
I mean, there’s gotta be someone out there who’ll still support the X6 or similar models. Not everyone wants a monster miner, right? Some of us just want a solid, efficient setup.
This could be a sign of the times... companies chasing after big numbers while leaving smaller miners behind. Honestly, I just want something that works without burning down my house.
