Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th) Review 

The Bitmain Antminer S17+(73Th) is a miner from the Bitmain company that mines with the SHA-256 algorithm. It has a maximum hash rate of 73Th/s and maximum power consumption of 2920W. It can mine bitcoin. It is considered the most competitive bitcoin miner, much better than the other Antminer versions. This miner was released in December 2019.

The power supply unit is included with the device. The device comes with four fans. These fans' job is to keep the internal temperature of the device when it is in operation. It also helps in dissipating heat from the device. It has a voltage of 12v, and it is operated over an Ethernet connection. It comes with 175 x 298 x 304mm and weighs 11000g. The hash rate of 73Th/s is also considered to be high compared to other miners in the market. This also accounts for its profitability.

Power Consumption of the Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th)

The power consumption of the Bitmain Antminer S17+(73Th) is about 2920W. The miner is also on the high side of power consumption. The needed power consumption requires a good amount of electric supply. The power supply that is needed constitutes the production costs of mining the bitcoin for new miners looking to mine bitcoin with the device. 

This is a great choice, but the electric supply needed for the device to consume the maximum power is to be considered. The electric cost differs from different locations. For new miners looking to start their mining career, this device with a high power consumption shows that a substantial amount of the electric cost will go into the mining device's power consumption. The power consumption can also affect the profitability of the product. This means that the higher the power consumption, the lower the profitability of that product.

Noise Level of the Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th)

The Bitmain Antminer S17+(73Th) has a noise level of 75db; this level of noise is high compared to other miners in the market. The Noise level is a result of the fact that the miner mines with very high power consumption. The power consumption is also high compared to other devices in the market.

For new miners looking to mine with this device should consider the noise level. It is not best to set up the mining device in a residential area. The Noise level shows that this miner contributes to Noise pollution. The noise level also shows that the mining device is efficient. A high noise level, like this device, actually shows that the device runs efficiently.

The profitability of the Bitmain Antminer S17+ (73Th)

This device is fairly profitable and has estimated profitability of $2.67/day, $80.15/month, and a profitability of $961.80/year. New miners who are looking to start mining can begin with this device. The device's profitability also depends on the market value of Bitcoin or any other of its mineable coin.

Other mineable coins

The Bitmain Antminer S17+(73Th) mines using the SHA-256 Algorithm; it can mine Bitcoin and mine other coins. Some of these coins are: Acoin(Acoin), Curecoin(CURE), Joulecoin(XJO), unbreakable(UNB), embark(DEM), Terracoin(TRC), BitcoinSv(BSV).

This device is considered a good option for new miners; it is fairly profitable, comes with its power supply unit, has a high hash rate of 73Th/s, and power consumption of 2920W. Miners are to consider the noise level and the electric cost it will need to consume the power needed. Also, profitability depends on factors such as the market value of Bitcoin or any other coin that is mined, the power consumption, the hash rate, etc.

It is advised that miners do their additional research before making a purchase.
