Yeah, I saw that on YouTube. I don't remember what channel it was. I must tell you though that those are not really GPUs. They're called ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuit). As the name suggests, they are a unit "specifically" made for one thing: mining cryptocurrency. While high power GPUs can do this as well (depending on the cryptocurrency), and ASIC can do this job waaaay more faster.
