MinerGate xFaster Miner + MacBook Air M1 Crypto Mining + Real Time Wattage!!
Posted: Mon Mar 29, 2021 12:34 pm
Default setup of MinerGate on macOS Big Sur running on a MacBook Air M1 Arm! This is the MacBook Air 8-Core CPU AND 8-Core GPU model (not 7-core GPU) with 16GB of Ram. Unfortunately, MinerGate does not have GPU miner compatible with M1 ARM yet, so it will only mine with CPU as of now. Average hashrate was around 750 H/s. It only mined with 7 out of 8 CPU cores. For some reason, it does not see 8 cores in total. MacBook Air wattage jumped to 24 once MinerGate began to run. Remember, this MacBook Air does not have a fan and will never make a sound.
