전 세계적으로 그래픽카드 공급량이 부족한 가운데 NVIDIA에서 RTX 3060의 생산량을 늘린다는 소식이 전해졌다.
해당 소식은 주요외신 Videocardz와 ITHome를 통해 전해진 것으로 NVIDIA가 보드 파트너사 즉 AIC의 내부 공지를 통해,
6월달 이후로 부터는 RTX 2060에 대한 공급량을 제한할 것이며 반면 최신 RTX 3060의 생산량을 늘릴 예정이라고 전했다는 것이다.
즉 구형 RTX 2060의 칩의 공급은 줄이면서 동시에 일반 게이밍용 최신 그래픽카드로서 가장 많이 구입되는 RTX 3060의 공급을
늘리겠다는 분석이다. 상기의 이유로 해당 내용이 사실일 경우 현재 LHR 시리즈의 출시와 함께 RTX 3080Ti/70Ti의 출시로 차츰 안정화되고 있는 그래픽
카드 시장 가격에 있어 조금 더 가속이 붙을 것으로 예측되고 있다.
한편 NVIDIA의 이러한 움직임에 대해서 �
Earlier this month, Nvidia confirmed plans to re-introduce the RTX 3060, RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 with ‘Lite Hash Rate’ GPU revisions to reduce crypto-mining performance and get more graphics cards into the hands of PC gamers. Now, these LHR graphics cards are starting to land in the hands of users and Ethereum mining performance has been tested.
Chinese hardware site, Expreview, got their hands on an LHR version of the RTX 3060. This was originally the first graphics card to utilise Nvidia’s anti-mining tech, but a beta driver unlocked full Ethereum mining performance shortly after launch. This new revision solves that issue with additional measures in place.

NVIDIA has committed to releasing Lite Hash Rate versions of the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, RTX 3070 and RTX 3080. The RTX 3090 remains unaffected, but all other desktop RTX 30 series cards shipping from this month onwards will be capped at half their theoretical ETH hash rates.

NVIDIA has announced in a press release that it plans to re-release the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 with a halved hash rate. GALAX confirmed as much last week, as we reported. Incidentally, NVIDIA s announcement confirms claims made by @kopite7kimi in February.

Despite utilising GA106 silicon, RTX 3060 isn’t actually a full implementation of the GPU, as it has 28 streaming multiprocessors (SMs) instead of 30. Currently only RTX 3060 for laptops uses the full GPU. For the desktop chip, 28 SMs means a total of 3584 CUDA Cores, as thanks to Ampere’s new SM structure with its two FP32 datapaths, each SM houses 128 CUDA cores.
Ampere also places one RT core, and four Tensor cores, in each SM, giving a total of 28 RT cores and 112 Tensor cores. This is accompanied by 112 texture units, and 48 ROPs which are now housed directly within each graphics processing cluster (GPC), with 16 ROPs per GPC, and 3 GPCs in total for RTX 3060.
It looks like Galax won’t only release RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 cards with the crypto mining limiter. Recently, the company added RTX 3060 and the RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards with the ‘FG’ naming to their website, which means they have their Ethereum mining performance halved.
From what we’ve gathered, the Galax ‘FG’ cards will feature Nvidia GPUs with the new crypto mining limiter (LHR). Galax’s new RTX 3060 Ti FG models come with the GA104-202 GPU, which has a crypto mining performance of about 25MH/s. The new RTX 3060 cards are equipped with the GA106-302 chip capable of mining Ethereum at 25 MH/s.
