1  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Different overclock settings for different devices with BFGMiner on: June 27, 2014, 07:09:46 PM
Yes, that works too. In my case command line would look like:

bfgminer -o <pool address> -u xxxxx -p xxxxx -S \\.\COM5 --set-device \\.\COM5:clock=x0981 -S \\.\COM6 --set-device \\.\COM6:clock=x0A81

In the context of performance, I'm not sure which way is better.

Ok I tried this and here is what I found. While I can specify the device I want to add in
Code:
-S \\.\COM4 --set-device \\.\COM4:clock=x0B81 -S \\.\COM5 --set-device \\.\COM5:clock=x0B01 -S \\.\COM6 --set-device \\.\COM6:clock=x0981
it will not effect the clock speed. The only luck I had effecting the clock speed was by device name such as
Code:
-S \\.\COM4 --set-device AMU0:clock=x0B81 -S \\.\COM5 --set-device AMU1:clock=x0B01 -S \\.\COM6 --set-device AMU2:clock=x0981
But here again I have another problem. For whatever reason COM4 doesn't always correspond to device AMU0 so on and so forth with COM5 and COM6 not always being AMU1 or AMU2 so the clock speeds get messed up for the devices. I guess I'm bewildered as to why the would not be added in the order specified in the .bat file. So what I am looking for now is someway to make the names always the same for each device or different parameters for specifying those devices by COM port and setting the clockspeed with that instead of by name.

Side Note BFGminer 4.2.0
