LHR means Lite Hash Rate, Nvidia did this to stop miners buying all stocks and leave some to gamers.

Nvidia started selling the LHR series because they wanted to make money by selling the limited warranty CMP series to miners. But when the LHR versions began to hack, Nvidia began to lose money.

The LHR thing was never loved by anyone in the mining sector,mostly gamers loved it because they thought that miners would not care about such devices when in fact the opposite happened,miners took these cards hoping in some later LHR unlock which is now happening and 75% is a sure thing now with some miners extending it further,I only predict a 100% unlock or near that number very soon within the year we are in 2022.

Once Intel comes into play things will change a lot and Nvidia will suffer even more not only in the CMP series but also in their flagship products like the RTX cards.I personally am waiting from AMD to show us some really awesome GPU-s regarding to that 7000 series,I am sure no LHR will be in place there as there was no need to,it was just Nvidia who screw things up with such parameter.

The funny thing is all those LHR cards still have high prices in my country, the sellers don't even know the difference, last time that I was sourcing for 3070s I asked many sellers here and they said they don't know what LHR or Non-LHR is lol.
