If you own a load of GeForce cards in your mining rig … here’s some good news for you. NiceHash has unlocked 90% of LHRv3 restriction on NVIDIA GPUs. Happy mining!
Taken from TPU … NiceHash, one of the largest mining software providers in the world, has today announced that the company had updated its QuickHash miner with the capability to unlock 90% of the performance for NVIDIA’s Lite Hash Rate (LHR) version 3. Currently, there are only two cards available with LHRv3 on the market, and those are NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB version and RTX 3050, which are limited in the software to have poor hash rate when mining. This is done to get these cards away from the hands of miners and into the hands of consumers. However, engineers working at NiceHash have presented QuickMiner v0.5.4.2 Release Candidate, which unlocks 90% of that LHRv3 capability.
| A new QuickMiner v0.5.4.2 Release Candidate has been released. It features 90% LHRv3 unlock (RTX 3050 and RTX 3080 12GB) and major stability improvements.
Changelog:
ATTENTION! This version requires NVIDIA driver version 512.15 or higher! Sometimes the excavator could unstabilize the NVIDIA driver and cause crashes. This is a known issue. Install the latest QuickMiner version by downloading the QuickMiner installer and selecting the Release candidate version or use the portable version. |
Previously, the company has already presented its work and enabled 100% unlock for LHRv2 cards and has now almost the entire stack covered. It is a matter of time before LHRv3 unlock goes up to 100%. NiceHash advises using NVIDIA driver version 512.15 or higher to get the latest unlock. Some stability issues have been fixed in the release, so users will experience no BSODs upon running the mining software.
