NerdQaxe++ Hydro – 4.8 TH/s Liquid-Cooled SHA-256 Solo Miner

 

 

 

---

 

 

Product Overview

 

 

The NerdQaxe++ Hydro is a compact, ultra-efficient liquid-cooled SHA-256 solo miner engineered for quiet operation, thermal stability, and consistent performance under sustained workloads.

 

Based on the proven NerdQaxe++ platform, the Hydro edition replaces traditional air cooling with a closed-loop liquid cooling system. This design allows the miner to operate with lower and more stable temperatures, reduced acoustic output, and improved consistency compared to fan-based cooling solutions.

 

Powered by four BM1370 ASIC chips, the NerdQaxe++ Hydro delivers up to 4.8 TH/s with industry-leading efficiency of approximately 15–17 watts per terahash. It is optimized for solo mining Bitcoin and other SHA-256 networks including Bitcoin Cash, Fractal Bitcoin, and DigiByte.

 

This miner is designed for experienced users seeking efficient, low-power hardware suitable for continuous operation when properly configured.

Performance & Operating Notes

 

 

At factory-recommended settings, the NerdQaxe++ Hydro is designed to operate reliably at approximately 4.8 TH/s with excellent power efficiency and thermal consistency.

 

The liquid cooling system provides enhanced thermal headroom compared to air-cooled designs; however, operating the miner within manufacturer-recommended specifications is strongly advised for optimal stability, efficiency, and long-term reliability.

 Please note: While all units meet the guaranteed hash rates, slight variances may occur from batch to batch. Power consumption might also vary depending on components like fans or power supplies. This approach allows me to secure the lowest pricing possible for you. Rest assured, each unit is vetted for performance!

 

⚠ Overclocking Warning

 

 

Overclocking increases power consumption, heat output, and overall stress on components. Operating the miner beyond recommended specifications may void the manufacturer warranty and can result in reduced hardware lifespan, permanent damage, or unsafe operating conditions if proper ventilation and electrical setup are not maintained. Excessive heat may increase the risk of damage to surrounding equipment or materials. Overclocking is performed entirely at the user’s own risk and is not recommended for beginners.

 

Stock units include a power supply designed for operation at factory-recommended settings. Operation beyond stock specifications may require a higher-capacity or upgraded power supply to safely support increased power demand. Operating an overclocked miner with an undersized or inadequate power supply may lead to instability, hardware failure, or unsafe operating conditions.

Additional Notes

 

 

Mining is probabilistic in nature. Results are not guaranteed and depend on network difficulty, hashrate, and time.
