Mining software appears to have cracked Nvidia's Lite Hash Rate algorithm

The team behind mining software NBMiner claims to have partially cracked Nvidia’s anti-mining limitations. Back in June Nvidia implemented an algorithm called Lite Hash Rate, or LHR, on all graphics cards from its RTX 30 series in an attempt to curb crypto mining. The limiter works on both the BIOS and driver level detecting mining algorithms to drastically reduce its mining power by up to 50% of its original capability. At the time, the company claimed that miners were disrupting its supply chain, consequently increasing the price of its graphics cards due to low supply. Nvidia prioritized its gaming user base stating that “this additional step will get more GeForce cards at better prices into the hands of gamers everywhere.”
