Nvidia Has Eliminated the LHR Lock within the Newest Driver 522.25

Evidently the most recent video driver from Nvidia model 522.25 simply launched with assist for the brand new Nvidia RTX 4090 GPUs does additionally include a eliminated LHR, so no extra the necessity to use a miner that unlocks the GPU’s full efficiency for mining (you probably have a LHR video card that’s). One would argue that after Ethereum switching to PoS and never being minable anymore is a motive sufficient for this transfer from Nvidia to take away the hashrate limiter on their RTX 30xx collection of GPUs. We’ve examined the most recent video drivers on LHR locked RTX 3070 Ti GPUs with PhoenixMiner 5.9 that doesn’t but assist any sort of LHR unlock and they’re doing 80 MH/s mining. Different LHR locked GPUs also needs to be able to their full hahsrate with out the necessity of particular unlocking miner, although now we have not been capable of check and ensure different GPUs for the second.

It’s not the mining half; it’s the gross sales half that’s the reason for the LHR elimination. The present scenario with no revenue for many miners signifies that there isn’t any must have software program that means additional hashrate limiter just like the LHR mode in place as it is going to additional lower the curiosity from miners for Nvidia GPUs with the present market scenario. And whereas Nvidia was actually having fun with the final bull run with big demand for his or her video playing cards, the scenario in the mean time will not be very beneficial for the corporate even with the launch of their new RTX 4090 GPUs. Miners should not shopping for new GPUs, actually many should not solely not shopping for, however are literally beginning to promote their RTX 30 collection video playing cards on the second-hand market at decrease and decrease costs as they don’t see a degree utilizing the for mining in the mean time…

So, is Nvidia making an attempt to “make issues proper” with the crypto miners yet one more now that they have to be introduced again shopping for GPUs in time for the subsequent crypto bull run? It in all probability is, and if not, they’ll at all times say the dearth of LHR lock within the 522.25 drivers was a developer mistake that can be mounted in a future driver replace!
