Tech speaking it’s nVidia’s GeForce driver that restricts datacenter usage not the card itself.

Not deep dived into it but maybe using nouveau instead of GeForce works around that restriction.

You are allowed to use the driver in data centres for cryptocurrency usage. The EULA limited datacenter usage hasn’t really been challenged in court yet. Both sides would have an argument. NVidia are using the Eula to limit an activity that a user would be allowed to do if the location that activity was different (and not even talking type of industry here, though that’s prob in the Eula too) On the other hand, it’s nVidia’s software, they are free to license it how they like.

You can't use nouveau for CUDA, which sort of negates the whole point of having a GPU in a server in the first place.

I've not deep dived into nouveau for a while so wasn't sure if they added cuda support in the past couple of years since I played with it which is why I only said "maybe".
