# 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.
