What's the difference?
In plain words, from the specs and your setup.
Your setup
Live rates · every result on this page is an estimate.
The country buttons set a typical household price; change it to your own.
Currency
€1 = $1.08 = £0.86. Mining pays in USD, so we convert USD → EUR first.
±50 % around today's live price.
Pool fee
Most pools keep 1–3 % of what you mine.
Fewer hours = less power and less income.
What each miner earns at your price
Net result after the pool fee and electricity, at today's network difficulty. Check the break-even price first: below it, the miner pays for its own power.
When does it pay for itself?
Cumulative result over 24 months. Each line starts at minus the price and marks the month it crosses zero.
Solo mining: the Bitcoin lottery
Many Bitaxe and NerdQaxe owners solo-mine on CKPool: tiny odds, but a hit pays the whole block to you.
Will it fit your home?
Socket, circuit, noise, heat, network and size, each read straight from the specs.
Circuit = one 16 A × 230 V household circuit (3,680 W); keep continuous loads under 80 %. Heat: BTU/h = W × 3.412; area assumes about 70 W of winter heat loss per m² (typical EU home, varies with insulation).
How loud is it?
Each miner on a decibel ruler with everyday sounds. +10 dB sounds about twice as loud.
True-to-scale sizes
Drawn from the listed dimensions on a centimetre grid.
Value for money
Price against hashrate for the miners on our compare pages (log scales). Bubble size = power draw. Up and to the left = more hashrate per euro.

Clean units from the product data. The best value in each row gets a green tint and a trophy; ties get none.

Pick this if…
Rule-based from the data above, so it changes with your setup.
NerdOctaxe 9.6 TH/s
The original NerdOctaxe achieves 9.6 TH/s using eight BM1366 chips in a compact open-frame design. It remains one of the most power-efficient solo miners available, with a vibrant open-source community behind it.
NerdOctaxe 3.1 Ultra (12 TH/s)
The upgraded NerdOctaxe 3.1 ULTRA pushes performance even further, reaching up to 12 TH/s. This makes it the highest-hashrate open-source home miner available, giving you the best solo mining odds in the NerdAxe lineup.
NerdQAxe++ Rev6
The NerdQAxe++ Rev6 is a more compact alternative with 4.8–6 TH/s. While it offers less hashrate than the NerdOctaxe models, it is smaller, more affordable and uses less power — ideal for those who want solo mining without the larger footprint.
Verdict
For maximum solo mining odds, the NerdOctaxe 3.1 Ultra is the clear winner. For the best balance of size and performance, the original NerdOctaxe 9.6 TH/s is excellent. The NerdQAxe++ Rev6 suits miners on a tighter budget or space constraint.
