Title: CGminer - Mining 2 pools at once
Post by: miztaziggy on December 13, 2013, 01:40:15 PM
I have 2 cards in xfire and wondered if it was possible to have CGminer mine two different coins, one on each card.

Say SPT on one card and GDC on the other.

If so, how?

Don't know if the Xfire connection will interfere, otherwise you will need to take away the cable between the cards.

Run two instances of cgminer and specify each card to a different pool,

cgminer -d 0 -o spt.pool.com ....
cgminer -d 1 -o gdc.pool.com ...

remember that cgminer removed support from gpus from version 3.8 so you must use 3.7.2 or earlier versions.

Excellent. Thank you
