Hash rate, power draw and electricity cost determine whether a miner is profitable. Do the math before you buy.
The three numbers that matter
Hash rate (output), power consumption (cost) and unit price (capex). Together they define payback period.

Plan for cooling and power
Factor in facility power capacity and cooling — they are as important as the miner itself.
