Bitmain Antminer X9 1 MH/s Monero RandomX ASIC Miner

1 MH/s, or 1,000 KH/s, of RandomX at 2,472W for an efficiency of 2.47 J/KH. Bitmain built it on custom RISC-V cores engineered for RandomX, which is how it reaches that hashrate and one of the best performance-to-efficiency ratios in the segment.

It mines Monero (XMR) as its main target and other RandomX coins such as Zephyr (ZEPH). It runs the RandomX algorithm, so it is dedicated to that family rather than Bitcoin or SHA-256 coins. You choose the coin and pool in the miner's web interface.

It is Bitmain's first production-grade RandomX ASIC, so it pairs 1 MH/s of dedicated Monero hashrate with Bitmain's proven engineering, firmware and support. One machine replaces roughly 100 to 125 high-end CPUs, and it offers one of the best performance-to-efficiency ratios in the RandomX segment, which is why serious Monero operators choose it over CPU and GPU rigs.

A single X9 produces about 100 to 125 times the RandomX hashrate of a high-end CPU. A strong desktop chip such as a Ryzen 9 manages roughly 8 to 10 KH/s, against the X9's 1,000 KH/s, and it consolidates the power, rack space and maintenance of all those machines into one unit. GPUs are weak at RandomX, so a dedicated ASIC is the clear step up.

The X5 was Bitmain's first-generation RandomX ASIC at 212 KH/s and 1,350W. The X9 delivers several times that hashrate at better efficiency per kilohash and is the production-grade model for serious Monero mining. The X5 remains the lower-cost, lower-power entry into RandomX; the X9 is the higher-output machine.

Both are strong RandomX ASICs in the same class. The X9's advantage is Bitmain: mature firmware, global support and warranty behind the hardware, which is why many operators choose it. The Pinecone Inibox R1X is a capable alternative, and buyers building for vendor diversification sometimes run both.

About 76 dB from four fans, similar to a high-speed vacuum, plus around 2,472W of heat. It is professional-grade hardware, so run it in a garage, a dedicated equipment room or a hosting facility with good ventilation. If you would rather keep the noise off-site, hosting is a simple option.

It draws about 2,472W continuous and runs on 220 to 277V through an Ethernet-managed chassis, so it needs a suitable high-voltage circuit rather than a standard household outlet. Plan the breaker rating and plug type around your local supply, or host it and let the facility handle power.

Yes, it ships with its power supply, and every unit is tested before dispatch. It carries a 6-month Bitmain manufacturer warranty. Orders ship worldwide DDP with customs and duties handled, so the checkout figure is the final landed cost. Current batch and delivery timing are shown in the availability section on this page.

Connect the X9 by Ethernet, open its web interface, and point it at a RandomX pool with your wallet address. It works with the major Monero pools, and for other RandomX coins you simply select a pool that supports that coin. Setup is quick and the miner runs on standard Antminer management.
