RTX 3090 48GB Mod Validator
A workshop acceptance kit for RTX 3090 cards modded from 24 GB to 48 GB — it checks the card end to end and returns ACCEPT, REVIEW or REJECT before handover.

A 48 GB RTX 3090 mod can boot and drive a display and still be bad: the driver reports the wrong memory size, CUDA sees less VRAM than it should, large allocations crash, or the OS logs NVIDIA, Xid, WHEA or PCIe errors. This suite is run at the workshop before a card is accepted. It confirms the card identifies as a 3090 with compute capability 8.6, that nvidia-smi and PyTorch both see about 49,152 MiB, writes to 92% of the 48 GB target by default, runs a matrix stress test, and captures PCIe link, VBIOS, driver, power and temperature. It then reads the Linux kernel log or the Windows event log for fresh errors and writes a Markdown and JSON report with a verdict, so every handover leaves evidence behind. Runners are provided for Linux, PowerShell and the Windows command prompt.
