1) Overview and required accessories (top)
The Hotmine X6 is a Bitcoin (SHA-256) ASIC miner that utilizes 16nm ASIC chip tech, made by Hotmine, which is based in Kiev, Ukraine.
This is a complete miner that includes its own built-in controller unit.
The miner's hash rate is claimed to be between 6.4 and 8.6 Th/s, while power consumption is around 980 to 1200 Watts.
It weighs in at 4.1 kg and measures 340mm in length, 145mm in width, and 155mm in height.

Hotmine has been around since 2013, and in 2016 they made a significant leap by partnering with Bitfury to produce boiler miners and upgrade kits based on Bitfury's 16nm (X5, X6) for Antminer S5.

The Hotmine X6 uses the same Bitfury BF16BTC8162 16nm ASIC chip as the previous X5 model, but it has more chips, resulting in over double the hash rate of the X5.
