It will use profit information from supporting pools to make sure you mine the most profitable algorithm at all times.
You can also use WhatToMine and CoinCalculators virtual pools for profit data and mine to pools which dont provide profit information, or even your custom pools.
Using integration with MSI Afterburner, it will get real time power usage and use this information to calculate how much you pay and adjust the profitability data.

Notes:
- Recommended drivers for AMD - 18.3.4/18.6.1.
you can use https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/atic-install-tool-radeon-drivers-download-utility.422576/ to easily find and download specific driver version
- Recommended drivers for NVIDIA on Win 10 - 411.31+ for CUDA 10.
- Recommended drivers for NVIDIA on Win 10 - 398.+ for CUDA 9.2
- Recommended drivers for NVIDIA on Win 7 - 390.65-391.01
- Latest PowerShell core recommended for compatibility/performance: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases
- Windows 7 will require PowerShell v5 or PowerShell Core installed: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54616
- Recommended MSI Afterburner version is 4.5.0 or newer
prior versions don't support Intel CPU power usage and may not fully support your GPU
- Avermore and Sgminer X16r/X16s (AMD) during benchmarking submit "fake" shares that get rejected by the pools.
Ignore this and after benchmarking it will work normally.
- XMR-Stak (AMD and NVIDIA) doesn't support multiple groups per GPU Vendor (2+ AMD or NVIDIA) out of the box.
Of first run it will create "GroupName-Algorithm.txt" files for each group that you can edit once to include only the relevant GPUs.
Mixed rigs (AMD+NVIDIA) may have problems selecting specific devices. Use at your own risk.
Disclaimer:
The miners used in Forager come from reasonably reputable sources and tested by community.
There is SHA256 validation for miner downloads to make sure they are not replaced by fake ones.
However, I do not take any responsibility if any of the miners contains harmful code.
Therefore, NEVER keep coin wallets or other sensitive information on the computer you run Forager on.
If you get hacked, loose your coins, burn you video card or cpu, get your personal photos stolen or your cat poisoned - it's your fault.
