pcmag.com Nvidia Tips Selective Rollout for Mining Limiter on RTX 3000 Graphics Cards

'Each board partner is responsible for how the transition will work within their graphics card lineup,' Nvidia says.

 

Nvidia’s plan to expand its Ethereum mining limiter to more RTX 3000 graphics cards has an ironic caveat—the limiter won’t arrive on Nvidia’s own Founders Edition GPUs. 

 

Nvidia’s goal is to begin shipping the first RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, and 3080 cards with the Ethereum mining limiter late this month. The boxes and online listings for these products will be labeled with “Lite Hash Rate,” or LHR, to signify that their mining capabilities are restricted.

Inclined to agree. It's Ethereum only?

ROTFL of course Nvidia wouldn't do anything to effect their OWN video card....  (Nvidia)"Have no fear! Only Founder wanna be's will suffer the dread limit/throttle!"

That bit did make me chuckle, though it is one way to drive mining sales to Nvidia's founders edition...gimp everyone else and watch your money roll in.
