NVIDIA made some pretty huge announcements to counter the cryptocurrency mining boom and the subsequent supply outages that are affecting its GeForce line of graphics cards. The company not only announced a dedicated line of GPUs under the CMP (Crypto Mining Processor) banner but also revealed that for upcoming GeForce graphics cards, they will be nerfing its hash rate by a huge margin to stop miners from gouging up the stock. The company has now given more info on how all of this is going to work.

According to NVIDIA's Bryan Del Rizzo, it looks like the cryptocurrency mining nerf is more than just a driver limit. Many people assumed this from yesterday's announcement where it was stated that the software drivers were designed to detect specific attributes of the Etereum mining algorithm, as it happens to be the most popular algorithm with the highest efficiency and profit rates right now, and limits the hash rate by around 50 percent.
