cmp.wiki opened on October 30, 2026 as a community reference for the NVIDIA CMP 170HX, both the 8 GB and the 10 GB card. It collects what the cmpunlocker Discord has worked out about unlocks, recipes, platforms, cooling, power and troubleshooting, so answers stay findable instead of scrolling away in chat, and every fact is credited to whoever found it.
What is on it
The wiki holds about 170 articles. All recipes lists 43 recipes, each a model running on CMP 170HX cards with its settings and numbers, and nine of them are Proven. All platforms lists 23 boards and servers with the settings that mattered.
Start here takes a new owner from the card in hand to a running model, split by card: lspci shows 10de:20c2 for the 8 GB card and 10de:2082 for the 10 GB card. Reference pages cover the unlocks, price history, failure rates, press coverage and a dated unlock history.
How trust works
Every recipe, platform report and unlock carries a status badge, and so can any single fact:
- Proven: reproduced by a second person, or by the lab on its own hardware, with numbers.
- Reported: one person's post with numbers or a clear result.
- Theory: an idea nobody has tested.
- Contested: people disagree, and the page shows both sides with sources.
- Warning: something that damaged hardware or lost data.
Nobody sets Proven by hand. A page becomes Proven when someone other than the original tester runs it on their own card and saves a confirmation with the result Reproduced.
How credit works
Every imported fact ends with a credit line giving the Discord handle and date of whoever posted it. Long write-ups are not reproduced in full without the author's agreement, and anyone can ask on the Discord to have a contribution removed.
The testing board
The board has two projects. CMP testing moves tasks through Wanted, Testing, Needs second confirmation and Proven; Dev and research tracks unlock, engine, firmware and tooling efforts from Idea to Done. A testing card closes once its wiki page shows Proven.
How to contribute
Use Sign in with Discord at the top right; your Discord username becomes your wiki name, so credits on imported content and on your own edits match. Recipes, platforms and unlocks each have a form, and Confirm on your own card in a page's infobox records your reproduction.
New accounts pass a short human check on edits until they are a day old with five edits. Signed-in users may upload text, logs, patches and images, but no model weights (link those on Hugging Face) and never secrets. Text is published under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0.
