Nvidia Has Eliminated the LHR Lock within the Newest Driver 522.25

Plainly the newest 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 (when you 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 sequence of GPUs. We’ve examined the newest video drivers on LHR locked RTX 3070 Ti GPUs with PhoenixMiner 5.9 that doesn’t but assist any form 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 we have now not been in a position to take a look at and make sure 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 state of affairs with no revenue for many miners implies that there isn’t any must have software program that suggests additional hashrate limiter just like the LHR mode in place as it’s going to additional lower the curiosity from miners for Nvidia GPUs with the present market state of affairs. And whereas Nvidia was actually having fun with the final bull run with big demand for his or her video playing cards, the state of affairs for the time being isn’t very beneficial for the corporate even with the launch of their new RTX 4090 GPUs. Miners usually are not shopping for new GPUs, the truth is many usually are not solely not shopping for, however are literally beginning to promote their RTX 30 sequence video playing cards on the second-hand market at decrease and decrease costs as they don’t see some extent utilizing the for mining for the time being…

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