The hash-rate limiter ensures that that crypto-currency mining efficiency of the cardboard is considerably decrease than what its {hardware} is able to, so it would not stay viable for miners. The limiter works via a safe key change between the video BIOS, system firmware, and the driving force; so driver-level modifications would not have an effect on it.
The RTX 3080 Ti is being launched to fill the massive price-performance gorge between the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090. Its rumored specs wildly swing between a 12 GB reminiscence setup maxing out the 384-bit reminiscence interface of the “GA102” silicon; and 20 GB of it throughout a narrower 320-bit large interface. The card allegedly options 80 out of 84 streaming multiprocessors (40 out of 42 TPCs) enabled, understanding to 10,240 CUDA cores, 80 RT cores, and 320 Tensor cores.
