Graphics cards get the majority of the attention when it comes to mining crypto coins, so I was impressed when I discovered what a beast AMD's Ryzen Threadripper 1950X could be at chewing through Cryptonight, an algorithm designed for CPU mining. Assuming you have a Ryzen Threadripper system built and ready to rock, the first thing you want to do is head into your BIOS settings and look for an option similar to "Advanced Memory Settings." Step 2: Set Up Ryzen MasterI'll assume you have Ryzen Master installed (if not, the Threadripper version is here) and that everything is set to defaults or something you're happy with. Did you notice it detects two Threadripper CPUs? Threadripper excels at mining when using 16 threads instead of its maximum of 32.
