That's hilarious that nVidia themselves provided the driver that circumvents the mining throttle. Someone has been fired over this for sure. Grin

Any information leak from such companies is a planned action in order to pass fake information to competitors or to do it on purpose in order to get profit.
Now Nvidia will tell gamers that the company did everything it could, but bad hackers ruined all plans.
After such events, I would not believe this company. Amd do not create problems for miners.

According to recent news, 3060 is unlocked in the driver too, you just need new driver.

i`m suprised, there`s no buzz here about it.

EDIT:
Driver was sent offline by nv serwer. there is a MEGA (not popular last days) link somwhere.

I found some ZOTAC GAMING GEFORCE RTX 3060 TI TWIN EDGE OC 8GB GDDR6X.

Are those limited as well ?
Limitation is active ONLY on the normal 3060 that does have 3584 cores?
Basically if it does have 4864 Cores isn't limited ?

3060 ti 8GB is not limited.
3060 12GB (non-ti) is limited.

Of course, there’s a chance that the hash rate still drops after three minutes of mining which is why we can’t be 100% sure just yet that the anti-miner block has been hacked. It might still be kicking in after four or five minutes of operation, making the 3060 unfit for mining Ether. As such, take this with a grain of salt until we have some solid proof.

Right now there is no known way to get around, and there likely never will be.

Not true. It's as simple as antivirus with the hat colours reversed. The antivirus is wearing the black hat
because it's blocking software legitimate users want. That motivation alone makes it only a matter of time
until it's cracked.

The Nvidia block is nothing more than a signature based "virus" detector with only one virus definition,
that being ethereum miners. Just need to tinker with the mining code to find the signature Nvidia uses
and change it slightly. It doesn't even have to change the algorithm, just the code used as the signature.

Then Nvidia will need to update the virus definition, but that's not as simple as with AV software.
Users will actively resist the update and the only way to force it is with new hardware.

Well it hasn't happened thus far, if it were easily done, it would be cracked already.

Nvidia can also improve it as each new card comes out, who knows, the 3080 Ti could be limited across all major algos.

If I had the crack I would keep it private until after the 3080 Ti launched.

I guess there's already rumor of a fix?

Of course they'll never say how, to keep them to themselves. Typical.

That being said, there's rumors its only Octopus they are showing, and those speeds are exactly what you'd expect from a tuned card (3060).

Could also be GPU resellers trying to increase the price of 3060 artificially.

I refuse to believe it until its confirmed by a trusted source.

No need for me to buy any ATM but was curious and thought it would be a nice LOL moment if someone unlocked the cards and made NVIDIA's move any sillier

You never know.. But what would be better is if eth changes it al-gore-rythm to only work with the gimped 3060 cards.

Damn. that would be cool.

Every time I win a shot to buy one in the new egg shuffle I get it and mine it on octopus. makes money. and I dream of my 3060's whaling to the altered eth algo this summer. Grin

I have 36 of them in 3 rigs. I like them because all of them are the same model. And one ore thing its so hard to find many gpus lately. But i can find 3060 easily

I have already 14G ethash hashrate, i think octopus may be a new ethereum for miners

Take this with a grain of salt, but a couple of weeks ago I read on reddit that someone (or group) was working on a "fix" where it would store the dag in the normal system RAM, and then just stop and restart mining every 60 seconds (or however long it takes for the throttling to begin), then copy the dag back into the GPU memory, rinse and repeat

Pretty sure I read the nerf is instant, the mining programs lag with the output they show.

Nvidia isn't stupid.

It depends on the miner. Some miners average the hashrate so it smooths out the variations, others
will show the near instantaneous hashrate which will show a drop immediately.

It's also why competing over a % hashrate here or there is silly.

Regarding your second statement, I'm not sure I agree considering the current fiasco.

If the DAG copy technique works it give a clue to how the gimping is implemented which could
lead to a more elegant solution.
