Yeah I hate the patched drivers too, I have a CMP170 as well I want to see if I can find a way to get fully working the same way without or minimal driver patching.

4000s is WIP, forks has already unlocked it but I'm doing some refactoring to better support different families and after that I'll port it over :-)

Can't wait, I have two 48G modded ada 4090's and 4 stock Blackwell 4000's (though I doubt those will be as easy). The 4090's alone would be an amazing thing to have boosted, they're my main workhorses and effectively any improvement there will immediately make my days more productive. If I can help out with testing, my email is in my profile.
Blackwell and hopper have a whole new boot process so those are unlikely to fall over anytime soon from what I've seen.

If you can't wait for 4090 someone has a fork with a seemingly working unlock :D

Is this relevant for 4090? It has FP8 which is already double the rate of FP16. Can this hack double the rate for FP8 too?
What about the 5090?
Hopper and blackwell have a very different security chain so those are out of scope for this approach at least.

But I would suspect China has figured something out given the reports of them buying 5090s in droves and seemingly modifying them.
