The AMD BC-160 crypto mining card from XFX features a 7nm Navi 12 GPU that packs 2,304 cores in 36 compute units. The card has 8GB of HBM2 memory at 1.6 Gbps pin speed and runs over a 2048-bit bus interface, so there are two HBM2 stacks on the package, each with a 2 GB stack and 512 GB/s of bandwidth. The card is equipped with 150W TGP and has an ETH output of 69.5 MH/s for a PPW of 0.46. This is a lower PPW than the entry-level RDNA 2 (Navi 23) product, as shown below.In the second half of 2021, AMD's board partners repurposed their old Navi 12 GPU inventory for the crypto mining market in the form of the BC-160, and so the 8GB HBM2 BC-160 hit the market.AMD BC-160 (default) - 69.5 MH/s @ 150W (0.46 PPW) AMD BC-160 (default) - 72.3 MH/s @123W (0.58 PPW) AMD RX 6600 XT (Tuned) - ~33 MH/s @ 55W (0.59 PPW) AMD RX 6600 Non-XT (tuned) - ~30 MH/s @ 50W (0.61 PPW) With optimized settings, the card can deliver up to 72.30 MH/s at 123W, resulting in a slightly better PPW rating. The AMD BC-160 mining card is optimized to run in the Linux Ubuntu/RedHeat operating system and can be used in a 12x GPU farm. The card itself features a dual slot design with a custom PCB and offers both active cooling (blower) and a standard passive cooling design. Power is provided through a dual 8-pin connector on the back and, like every mining card, it features a headless design.
