Whatsminer M79S
Bitcoin miner from MicroBT. A machine in rack format rather than a single unit, built for dense hydro deployments. Plan the rack, the loop and the three phase supply before the hardware arrives.

About the Whatsminer M79S
The Whatsminer M79S is MicroBT's SHA-256 miner in rack format rather than a single unit, built for dense hydro deployments. In this factory version it runs at 1,040 TH/s on 14,040 W, which is 13.5 J/TH; the 930 TH/s version draws about 12,555 W at the same efficiency. Per machine, nothing else in our catalog delivers as much SHA-256 hashrate or draws as much power.
It needs three phase power at 380 to 480 V and draws about 337 kWh a day per machine, so the rack, the loop and the supply are best planned before the hardware arrives. The site provides the liquid cooling loop with manifold plumbing, a dry cooler or water source, plus power cords and a PDU. At the machine it runs at about 50 dB; what you hear on site is mostly the heat rejection outside. The operating range is 5 to 45 °C; dimensions and weight are on request.

Read before you buy the Whatsminer M79S
The breakeven power price, and why we ask for yours first
Every machine has an electricity price above which it stops making money. Work that number out and most of the hardware decision answers itself.
Hydro miners compared, and what the loop really costs
Water cooled machines hold the efficiency frontier and they are quiet enough to put near people. They also come with a construction project attached, and that is the part to price before the hardware.
Three phase power for a mining site, in plain terms
Most modern miners are three phase machines, and most new sites are wired for something else. This is the vocabulary you need before you talk to an electrician.
