Title: Dual mining on nVidia cards?
Post by: mushtuk on June 08, 2017, 12:52:22 PM
Is there any way to dual mine with GTX 10xx cards? The only thing I found is with claymore's dual miner, but it's for eth + couple more currencies. Is there some miner for zec + decr/sia/lbry? Or even better - some miner for eth+zec? :D

No you cannot dual mine zec, because it uses both GPU and memory. You can only dual mine effectivelly when one algo uses ONLY GPU and second ONLY memory. All in all, nvidia cards are not that good in dual mine, so it is usually very barely worth it.

um its always worth it, i get 29 mhs eth and 290 sia for 120. watt on 1070
also 29 mhs and 400 dcr,

if u dual mine its basically the same profits as zec most of the time

eth plus lbry would be real profit right now too

Which software are you using to get best results on multi-GPU NVIDIA rigs?
I'm soon going to have a rig with 4x GTX 1070 and 1x GTX 970.
Will add in another 2x GTX 1070 if performance is good enough.

you can dual mine only currency that use or ram or core, the best pair are the one between ETH and sia decred or pascalite, there is a reason for that, the latter are low memory while ETH is hard memory
