Who is behind NerdAxe
The NerdAxe line was started by Bitmaker, the developer behind the NerdMiner. Where the NerdMiner computes hashes on a microcontroller, a NerdAxe puts a real mining chip on the board and keeps what made the NerdMiner popular: a large colour display and a setup anyone can do. The firmware is AxeOS, the open-source software of the Bitaxe and NerdAxe family; the NerdAxe Gaia Copper Pro runs NerdOS.
How the names work
- NerdAxe, one chip: the NerdAxe Gamma with a BM1370 and 1.2 TH/s, the NerdAxe Gaia with the new BM1373, 2.6 TH/s at 25 W, and the NerdAxe Gaia Copper Pro with the same chip under a copper cooler, 3 TH/s at 33 W.
- NerdQAxe, four chips: the NerdQAxe++ with 4.8 TH/s, the NerdQAxe Copper Pro on solid copper and the water-cooled NerdQAxe++ Hydro.
- NerdOctaxe, eight chips: the NerdOctaxe with 12 TH/s and the NerdOctaxe Hydro with 14 TH/s.
- The NerdQX: around 8 TH/s under a tower cooler with a 120 mm fan.
Display, accessories and setup
The colour display shows hashrate, temperature and pool statistics; the button on the board cycles through the screens. For the NerdQAxe boards there are the open-frame NerdQAxe Performance Case and the NerdQAxe Stand, for the NerdAxe Gamma the NerdAxe Case.
Setup: the NerdAxe Setup Guide for the single-chip models, the NerdQAxe Setup Guide for the four and eight chip boards. A buying comparison by hashrate, power and noise is on the NerdAxe category page.
