Has anybody managed to remove the limiter while using a x16 to x16 riser? My stupid fucking motherboard has the 2 pci3 slots too close to each other and my 2 3060s won't fit at the same time.
Works on x1 risers if you plug in a hdmi dummy plug. Nvidia 470 beta drivers can handle 6++ 3060 cards in the rig mining fullspeed without any problems (with 6 hdmi dummy plugs installed). '

Source? Everything I've seen is 16x extension ribbon risers and specific server mobos.

An x8 PCIe connection or better seems to be a requirement.
THW has declared the block dead based on the leaked driver, HDMI dummy plug & x8+ workarounds. IMO that's not dead.

I am thinking of buying this GPU.
From what I read, if the GPU is connected directly to the motherboard, the PCI x16 plug, and has a monitor connected, mining runs smoothly. That's it? Or is it necessary to also use such a developer driver?

The 470.05 beta driver is required. I have a 3060 and use it for octopus for the time being, which is not throttled regardless of driver version.

Where can I get this Beta driver?

Where can I get this Beta driver? You can download it from here: https://mega.nz/file/rE1E0JCS#-xL0bc6t2UiuiZ0Vtc-I9hcqGhV0UIr0B6FKJcdy_kEYou need to have monitor plugged in (or dummy plug), and at least X8 PCI-e speed. I'm running 3x 3060 in X99 mobo, but its also possible to run even 7 with x16 risers and appropriate mainboard.

I dont think they will find solution for this in coming future:) so far it was only coincidence ppl are able to mine with 1-3 cards(depend on mobo) but no real wa/crack has been found yet.

Thanks. This will not be a problem, because it will also be the main GPU of my PC. Of course, this, in some moments, will bring lower profitability. It will be a management issue.

Not necessary a monitor, the hdmi cable itself is enough. You can remove the monitor. Or use a hdmi dummy.

Yes, Is necessary to use the Beta driver 470.05 but other condition must be met: - PCIe connections 16x 3.0 or higher (16x risers can be used) I think the GPU bios check if the connection is 16x 3.0 or higher and if there is a monitor connected. It would be good if someone figured out how to get around these restrictions ...

OK! Thanks. I only have, first install the driver before the Windows do it alone...

Is there a known workaround for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti LHR? Does the beta 470.05 driver work?
