Project unlocks FP/BF16 compute rates on Nvidia RTX 3000 cards

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

A project called GPU-unlock is drawing attention for exploring the FP/BF16 instruction issue rate on Nvidia's RTX 3000 series graphics cards, examining whether performance limits on these consumer GPUs can be bypassed or better understood. Discussion is focused on what this means for compute workloads like machine learning, where BF16 throughput matters, and how much hidden performance Nvidia's cards may hold.

Why now: Interest in squeezing more AI and compute performance out of consumer Nvidia GPUs is high right now.
