Nvidia's anti-Ethereum Mining Lock is a Joke, and we aren't laughing

well i already thought it will be a joke.

but that nvidia was lying so obviously is surprising.

make no mistale they were not only careless, they where LYING about how the lock works!
 
Decided to try my 3060 Ti (FE)

A "Quick and dirty optimised" setup with just a 60% power limit and memory at 7.7GHz (+900MHz):

EDIT: Checked the translation of original article and realised the good quality screenshot is with the limit on, looks like it can hit ~40MH/s but while consuming a lot more power than it takes the Ti to do more, so I guess the 3060 normal still is quite far off desirable for this use case

I read elsewhere that it will only work if there’s only one GPU in the system and a display must be connected. Windows only and one has to register with Nvidia to access the developer drivers.

Targeting the multi-GPU setups rather than the average consumer seems a better aproach to me. Hope this is what they will do in the long run.
