Post by: Redaktion on March 10, 2021, 14:04:58
Ambitious miners have successfully managed to best the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060's hash rate limiter less than a month after it was launched. The graphics card can now mine crypto at 45MH/s. With the restriction in place, its mining rate was restricted to 20MH/s.

I'm just relegating myself to continuing to hang on to my 2070 for probably another year

Same. But I see no reason to upgrade my 2070 Super anytime soon. It gets the job done at 1080p 75Hz.

Yes. And no. Mining isn't really my thing.
