- GeForce RTX 20, RTX 30 and RTX 40 GPUs were included in a modding effort that unlocked compute-performance gains of up to 2x.
- RTX 3090 Ti received a nearly 80% FP16/BF16 compute boost through a Linux-based unlocking trick.
Why it matters: GeForce RTX owners gain a route to substantially higher compute performance from installed RTX 20-, 30- and 40-series hardware, including a nearly 80% FP16/BF16 boost on the RTX 3090 Ti. The up-to-2x claim is the broader ceiling; the Linux-specific 3090 Ti result makes clear that gains depend on the card and compute format.
