> Clearly, this operation requires specialized soldering skills and access to appropriate high-end tools. [...] The technician also uploaded a leaked, modified firmware onto the GeForce RTX 4090 48GB. It is important to note that each graphics card possesses a unique GPU device ID, which contains all pertinent information. During the system initialization process, the firmware verifies whether the GPU device ID corresponds with the one embedded within the chip. Hacked firmware has been present for some time.

So, an interesting YouTube video, but the $142 is not the whole story here, both in terms of materials and way no in terms of wall clock time required

I appreciate that they did call out the total cost later in the article, along with re-mentioning the specialized tools and experience, but the headline here deserved extra "clickbait alert" call out
