Title: Can I mine two coin on one pc using minerd scrypt
Post by: robelneo on March 11, 2014, 03:28:12 PM
Hi I would like to ask ...Is it possible to mine at least two coin using minerd scrypt on one desktop?
Any additional configuration needed to do this?

cpu or gpu mining

eg if you have 2 cards you can allocate -d 0 to one coin, run minerd again and set it to use -d 1 ( ie 2nd card )

cpu, just split the core eg say you have a i5 with 4 core, -t 2 ( uses 2 cores )

but you will be better off putting all your hash into one coin.

You are right all my hashes are divided when I tried to mine two coins simultaneously on my pc
