What's the difference between rated and target hashrate?
Rated vs. Target gives you two different yardsticks by which to measure hash rate efficiency.
- Rated hash rate: aggregates the manufacturer's rated hashrate for all the hashing miners as the potential hash rate.
- Target hash rate: where available, an average hash rate can be pulled from the miner firmware. This number better accounts for factors that may be affecting the miners, such as over- or under-clocking, low or high ambient temperatures, etc. It sets the potential to a more realistic level based on how the miner is actually running
