Running 2 instances of cgminer?

[ibrahim11]

Hi, I believe this question has been asked before by someone else but there was no solution. I ordered a 7950 and a 280x. Because 7950 likes -g 1 and 280x likes -g 2 then can't I run two instances of cgminer to make full use of both cards?

Has anyone else tried this? Thanks

Yes it has and you can just point each instance to a different configuration file but remember to use -d to select the correct device and -remove-disabled to ignore the other devices for each instance of cgminer.
