I have many questions but one major one in my mind is if the vBIOS limiter implementation been done poorly?  Would it affect performance on hashcat hashes 17700 - 18000? Are we going to see more and more "crypto algorithms" being hit by this artificial limitation in the future?

Who are they to tell me what I can and can't run on my own card? Will they remove this limit when GPU supply increases?

Anyone able to test?

I am similarly interested in the effects of this rate limiting, particularly as we move towards the supposed 30xx Ti releases which are also expected to have these limiters. Has anyone seen anything yet?
