I've tested myself and the results are legit, this is incredible, even if a little risky (it relies on exploiting firmware): https://github.com/Zagitta/gpu-unlock/blob/main/docs/How%20A... > Unfortunately for Nvidia the booter is vulnerable to a classic buffer overflow that writes straight into the stack which gives us the ability to execute code via Return Oriented Programming (ROP).

In GPU-unlock: FP/BF16 instruction issue rate on Nvidia 3000's cards
