Foreign netizens @bravo_cha recently found that EVGA graphics cards released a firmware patch, and after the firmware upgrade, evaga RTX 3080 Ti's Ethereum hashrate has increased from 66MH/s to 80MH/s.
@bravo_char found that this is because most of the RTX 3080 Ti LHR models have hidden power constraints in the BIOS settings, and if the memory load is too high, it will be considered to be mining, and then activate this limit. And EVGA thought it was a BUG and released an updated patch, but didn't expect a "miracle effect".
@bravo_char also took the Yingzhong RTX 3080 Ti iChill X3 Super Ice Dragon Edition to test, after brushing into the EVGA firmware, the result was actually successfully unlocked the computing power, the computing power directly rose to 91MH/s, an increase of 38% compared with before. However, because of the risks of cross-brand BIOS, it is generally not recommended to try.
