Did NVIDIA’s solution work? Ethereum mining on GeForce RTX 3060 really drops by 50%

CryptoLeo already got access to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 before the official start of sales. Interestingly, the card he bought – ZOTAC RTX 3060 Twin Edge… This manufacturer has previously publicly supported miners with ZOTAC graphics cards in Twitter

Recently NVIDIA announcedthat the GeForce RTX 3060 drivers will be able to determine if a user is mining cryptocurrency. This will automatically limit performance by 50%, which will make mining on this card unprofitable. This is exactly what happened with the model tested by CryptoLeo

Just a minute or two after launching the hash rate dropped from 41.5 MH / s to 26-24 MH / s… Since the author of the video does not have drivers for this card, it can be assumed that the mining protection algorithm is absent in the software, but rather is implemented in the BIOS
