Cryptominers Target AMD Ryzen CPUs for Their Big L3 Caches
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/cryptominers-target-amd-ryzen-cpus-for-their-big-l3-caches
"AMD's Zen 3 mainstream processors, such as the Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 9 5900X, feature up to 64MB of L3 cache. Based on information from the Raptoreum Mining Profitability Calculator, the Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 9 5900X offer up to 4,247 h/s and 3,557 h/s, respectively. The first could net you 205 Raptoreum a day, while the latter delivers up to 172. At $0.0220255 per Raptoreum and utilizing an energy cost of $0.12/kWh, a Ryzen 9 5950X makes around $4.16 a day, while a Ryzen 9 5900X puts in a respectable $3.43. That means the Ryzen 9 5950X ($739) practically pays for itself in 178 days and the Ryzen 9 5900X ($524) in about 153 days. "
Gonna need some Super Copium next year as CPUs gonna dramatically get increased caches...

Funny how there's talks of laws meant to stifle the miners, yet nothing is being done and yet they only grow bolder and more aggressive with what they target to guy up.
Sure we hear about a coin tanking, but that only seems to happen briefly, and they only end up coming back stronger.

I am half regretting not buying another 3080 when the Evga queue gave me another chance. At this rate, I won't be able to buy another GPU or even another system in a long time so if my 3080 dies, I am fucked. The meme of one day being able to use RGB to mine coin will become a reality at this rate.
