Hey folks, I just got my hands on the AntMiner S19 Pro and I'm curious if it's actually worth the hype for Delphi mining. The hash rates look insane, but the power draw is brutal—anyone got real‑world data or experiences?
Honestly I'm still using my old AntMiner S9 and it's still holding up fine for Delphi mining, I'm not sure if the S19 Pro is worth the upgrade just yet unless you're running a large-scale operation or need the extra hashrate for some other coin. The power consumption on the S19 Pro does seem a bit too high if you're just mining Delphi solo though.
I've got the S19 Pro and I've gotta say, it's a beast. The new 21 TH/s chip more than makes up for the slight power increase in price. I've seen my earnings go up by 30% since I upgraded from the S17.
The S19 Pro is solid but unless you have dirt cheap electricity, the ROI is gonna be brutal. Don't get hyped over the marketing, just run the numbers on a calculator first. Pretty sure there are better options for efficiency out there right now.
