Modders have successfully unlocked the artificial compute limits placed upon consumer-oriented NVIDIA GeForce GPUs in order to make them just as capable as professional NVIDIA RTX GPUs for relevant AI and compute workloads. Specifically, modders have pulled this off with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20 Series, RTX 30 Series, and RTX 40 Series GPUs.

For our gaming audience, don't get too excited about this one. While more GPU compute is definitely good to have, these mods aren't really going to help you boost your in-game framerates. Instead, it's more about the pro-grade AI and GPU compute workloads that people previously needed to buy Quadro RTX graphics for.

Modders have unlocked hidden AI compute performance on NVIDIA’s RTX 20, 30 and 40-series GPUs.The modifications remove software-level limits on certain Tensor Core operations, without changing the hardware or flashing a new VBIOS.- RTX 4090: 165.6 → 331.6 TFLOPS FP16 Tensor Core throughput-RTX 3090...
