Ethereum DAG size increase to make 4GB GPUs obsolete
Ethereum DAG size increase to make 4GB GPUs obsolete
Every 30,000 blocks of ETH (or approximately every 100 hours), the DAG size increases. Each increase of this kind is known as an epoch. Once the DAG file size grows to become larger than the memory capacity of the GPU's VRAM, the GPU becomes unable to mine Ethereum.Oct 21, 2020
