Numbnutz,
I'm not sure which you understand less: economics, profit vs loss, or electronics.

  • Bitmain will always care about longevity weighed against consumer ROI. They have to or more units would fail than the market would accept and they would go out of business.
  • If you choose to ignore every basic principle of earnings, then it's pointless to even get a miner made by any company.
  • When you lower the frequency of a chip, increase the voltage to that chip (yes this actually happens when you lower the frequency), stick it in a room that is 15-20F over even the highest computer (yes, these things are computers) industry recommendations, and ignore the manufacturer's researched cooling curves, it's on you that you have a chip-oven bent on doing the exact opposite of that you think it will/should do.
  • Your claims about GPUs suggest you've also done no research on folding or any other modern distributed computing projects.
  • Still waiting on this "proof" that you keep claiming to have.
