Nvidia nerfed the RTX 3060 for crypto miners. Here’s how.

Nobody mines bit­coin with GPUs.…

Thank god finaly, the scum­bags have been caus­ing a short­age and increase in prices!

But I’ll like it for good effort, also btw, they did this most­ly for more mon­ey and the 3060 got cracked already XD, like kin­da rook­ie you did­n’t get that all to the point but I can’t blame you.
Also, fix ur mic

No you no under­stand all the RTX 3060Ti, RTX 3070, RTX 3080 and last RTX 3090 are the all old ver­sion like it got a GPU code. Now the new upcom­ing RTX 3060, RTX 3060Ti, RTX 3070, RTX 3080 and last RTX 3090 will have in them new GPU code what mean you can­not min­er on them and not made for min­ing. Nvidia is sav­ing our gamers is not done this way PC gam­ing up to now is dying and not only that but workstation.

Did any­one notice they used a 3080 with the 8 replaced with 6 in their thumbnail?

lol nice try nvidia

This news is so late the GPU is already non-exis­tent and the cyp­to min­ing “nerf” only appar­ent­ly works for ethereum

Nvidia isn’t doing this to stop min­ers, they are doing this as an EXCUSE to pro­duce cards with a very lim­it­ed life, that are also worth­less in an Ebay 2nd hand mar­ket, basi­cal­ly forc­ing more peo­ple to buy new cards.

They could sim­ply put their resources to mak­ing more cards that every­body can use, instead they are wast­ing resources (espe­cial­ly VRAM) on cards that gamers specif­i­cal­ly can’t use, while min­ers can still use both because the 3060 only lim­its ethereum, but none of the oth­er crypto-mining.

The worst part is nvidia is essen­tial­ly mak­ing a prod­uct that will go straight to the land­fill in 6 to 12 months once the min­ers are done with them, but nvidia will keep churn­ing out new­er garbage min­ing cards to sell

Not real­ly…

I remain skeptical.

What?! This is like two weeks old news

I’m still using agp 8x

Good maybe I’ll be able to buy one for actu­al gam­ing smh

Come on how am I sup­posed to mine tur­tle coin now 😔😔😔

Depends on how they respect the min­ing com­mu­ni­ty.
How aggres­sive would they jack up prices com­pared to their com­peti­tors? Would their prof­itabil­i­ty against ASICS per hash rate be favor­able?
What about immer­sion cool­ing as well?
I’m new to immer­sion cool­ing, so please add insights to where it stands at present and where it should go. Are immer­sions worth the ROI?
What about repairabil­i­ty and refur­bish­ment? Are the pro DIY or very pro­pri­etary when it comes to repairs.
I feel a lit­tle antsy how they seem to shame “bad actors” when in truth, inno­va­tion often comes from build­ing mods. So their exist­ing pol­i­cy seems a lit­tle too con­trol­ling and not sup­port­ive in help­ing min­ers suc­ceed.
(Think of how Apple delib­er­ate­ly slows your phone down to manip­u­late you into buy­ing a new phone)
I believe novi­tiate has a right to prof­it but not at the cost/expense of its users. This is an eth­i­cal issue that needs more attention!
