Goldshell AE Max II
Hashrate: 540 MH/s
Power: 3,200 W
Efficiency: 5925925.9 J/TH
Noise: 85 dB
Quick answer: The Goldshell AE Max II is a Zksnark miner rated about 540 MH/s at roughly 3,200 W. An industrial-class unit — loud and power-hungry, best suited to a dedicated mining space, not living areas.
Professional-Grade Miner
This miner draws 3,200W and produces 85 dB of noise — it is designed for dedicated mining environments, not living spaces. Professional-grade miners deliver the highest hashrate and revenue per unit but require proper infrastructure: a 240V circuit, adequate ventilation or exhaust ducting, and a space where noise is not a concern (garage, basement, warehouse, or outdoor enclosure).
For home miners looking for a quieter alternative, consider our Bitcoin Space Heater builds or explore open-source miners like the Bitaxe that are purpose-built for residential environments.
Circuit Requirement: 240V dedicated circuit
Heater-Class Miner
At 3,200W, this miner outputs approximately 10918 BTU/hr of heat — equivalent to a standard electric space heater. Every watt consumed by an ASIC miner is converted to heat with 100% efficiency, making it a space heater that also mines Bitcoin.
During heating season, miner heat can offset part of the heat a room would otherwise need from another electric heater. The economics depend on your electricity rate, room heat demand, BTC price, network difficulty, and noise constraints.

Home Mining Assessment
Home Mining Score: 8/100 (Not Recommended)
Noise: 85 dB (Very loud - dedicated space required)
Heat Output: 3,200W / 10918 BTU (High heat - requires ventilation or duct system)
Power Draw: 3,200W (3.2kW) (240V dedicated circuit required)
The Goldshell AE Max II is a Zksnark cryptocurrency miner manufactured by Goldshell. It delivers a hashrate of 540 MH/s with a power consumption of 3200W, achieving an efficiency of 5925925.9 J/TH.
Operates at 85 dB noise level, weighs 12.45 kg, measures 264 x 200 x 290mm.
With a home mining score of 8/100, this miner is best suited for dedicated mining spaces for residential use. It produces 10918 BTU/h of heat output, making it effective for supplemental space heating.
Its waste heat (around 10918 BTU/h) can be ducted into a room, turning money you would otherwise spend on heating into hashrate.
