>A hacker says an 8GB Nvidia crypto-mining card hides 80GB of memory. She unlocked it, and in her tests it outran Nvidia's A100 AI chip.https://blog.kate.land/posts/using-voltage-glitching-to-unlock-the-a100/
They really think we'll believe this shit huh.
>she
>>110316389>another AI hack with dunning-kruger going full blastit's all so fuckin' tiresome, hope ccc has some dignity left
>>110316389time to download more RAM i guess
>>110316400they keep trying to convince us there's females doing this kind of shit all the time, but it's a lie every time
>>110316389And that hackers name?Albert Einstein
>>110316389>sheso a tranny?
>>110316400Crypto miners are a wierd world. Wasteful beyond imagination.This card costs 5k. Not a cheap single 8gbvram miner shitter.
did no one open the card and was like "huh theres 80gb of memory here" or what?
>>110316389>katewho's gonna tell him?
>>110316540Its a miner. Might be a cluster of 10 8gb cards.It's certainly not just a 8gb vram crard because it's 5k used....
>>110316474that is a huge ass
>>110316389Unironically useless unless you can guarantee all 80GB are truly flawless and work as intended. And you're already months late since those cards have already tripled in price since people discovered this shit. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/408132536_A_Canary_in_the_Crypto_Mine_Defeating_Stack_Protection_in_a_GPU_Secure_Coprocessor
So evidently this is like 3 4 months old news and these cards were 500-700, then 2 months ago they were 2-3k. Now they are 5.Some unlocks to 64gb, some less, it was a gamble but a pretty fun one. The train is long gone anyway.
>>110316474Her BBC videos are unbelievable
It's probably just to side step export restrictions.
>>110316680I believe them
>>110316515no shit
>>110316673This isn't new at all. Intel does the exact same shit basically, but instead of fuses they chop the chip up and throw away the broken cores. One of the reasons why chiplets are the future, can extract more yield from the same manufacturing failure rate
>>110316389>shelmaooo post face
I learned that high end chips that don't meet the binning standards get purposefully isolated from components on the chip so the remaining chip performs at the standard of a lower class chip, thus reducing waste, about 20 years ago.It's a nifty thing to know i guess.
>>110316814They also just bin regular chips lower if they don't have enough bad ones.

>>110316895at least it's not another youtube thumbnail thread
>>110316579>Might be a cluster of 10 8gb cardsdoesn't an ai model need contiguous ram? might be fine for mining, but not AI.
>>110316389>cryptoshitter "hacker" has supply of old useless cryptoshit>decides to try pump up price of his used stock
>>110316474I love long asses.
>>110316783>but instead of fuses they chop the chip up and throw away the broken coresare you retarded? Intel's been using eFuses to disable faulty silicon for decades now.
>>110316680>just a dildo
>>110316474I cannot source who this is
>>110316389Fuses are to disable faulty sections.
