Nvidia limits crypto-mining on new graphics card
Graphics card-maker Nvidia says it will deliberately reduce the efficiency of its latest card by 50% when it is used to mine the crypto-currency Ethereum.

Nvidia said it had intervened to make sure its products “end up in the hands of gamers”.
But it will also sell a bespoke crypto-currency mining processor.
