Profitability Comparison
Innosilicon A10 ETHMaster (500Mh)
Jasminer X4
Based on BTC price of $78,165 and current network difficulty as of May 16, 2026. Actual results vary.
Verdict
Weighing six performance factors, the Jasminer X4 comes out ahead — it takes 4 of 5 (efficiency, hashrate, home mining score, price-performance). Its biggest concrete edge: 400% more hashrate (0.0 vs 0.0 TH/s). That said, the Innosilicon A10 ETHMaster (500Mh) isn't beaten everywhere — it still wins power consumption. The right pick still depends on your power cost and noise tolerance — the breakdowns above make that call concrete.
Spec Deltas
The Innosilicon A10 ETHMaster (500Mh) and Jasminer X4 diverge on the metrics below — each gap expressed as a real percentage, not a vague "better":
- Jasminer X4 400% more hashrate (0.0 vs 0.0 TH/s)
- Innosilicon A10 ETHMaster (500Mh) 38% better power draw (750 vs 1,200 W)
- Jasminer X4 68% better efficiency (1,500,000 vs 480,000 J/TH)
- Jasminer X4 60% more heat output (2,559 vs 4,094 BTU/hr)
- Jasminer X4 3% more home mining score (30.0 vs 31.0)
Cost & ROI Over Time
A miner pays for itself in profit, not specs. These projections track upfront cost against one, two and three years of net earnings at $0.10/kWh.
| Innosilicon A10 ETHMaster (500Mh) | Metric | Jasminer X4 |
|---|---|---|
| $2,150 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $999 |
| -$1.80 | Daily net profit | -$2.88 |
| -$2,807 | Net after 1 year | -$2,050 |
| -$3,464 | Net after 2 years | -$3,101 |
| -$4,121 | Net after 3 years | -$4,153 |
| Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) | Payback period | Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) |
Projections assume continuous operation, a flat $0.10/kWh rate, and no hardware degradation, pool fees, or BTC price change. Real-world ROI varies.
