> Nvidia is trying to get miners to buy mining-only cards

I thought the non-LHR cards are fully featured?



They have a SKU specifically targeting miners

There is some precedent for hacking ex-miner cards to route the video signal back to a motherboard output over the PCI bus:

With so many more of them out there, it'll be interesting to see if this becomes more of a thing. Alternatively, it's easy to imagine that depending on just how constrained these are, they might eventually find homes doing non-crypto headless DC workloads, such as deep learning stuff.


They're not producing fully featured cards anymore. They're separating the market into RTX-LHR for gamers and CMP for miners.
