4ward, good looking miner, but just a few questions,
How to disable Nvidia on a mixed rig What core and clock speeds do you recommend for 480 and 580's I normally run MSI with power limit -35, do i leave this as is or do I change it to 0 and will Forager work out the most profitable? Also how to separate and group different cards, the 480 and 580 are all in one group as Ellesmere8.
Thanks

run DeviceList.bat, it will generate an example GpuGroups value for all the devices you have you can then edit it and put in the Config.ini file an example RX580+RX480 groups would look something like (this also disables NVIDIA, since there is no NVIDIA group defined): GpuGroups = [{"GroupName": "RX580s", "Type": "AMD", "Devices": "0,1", "PowerLimits": "0"}, {"GroupName": "RX480s", "Type": "AMD", "Devices": "2,3", "PowerLimits": "0"}] If you leave "PowerLimits": "0", it will not be changed by Forager. Regarding core/mem, since different algos work differently, I would recommend to use a memory timings mod, and undervolt gpu/mem (depends on your cards, but for me 1060 on gpu and 900 mem works great on rx480 with Uber 3.1 timings)

Start.bat - Menu based run. It will ask you to select Mode and Pools Autostart.bat - Example file for launching without manually selecting every time. You can edit it to your liking and set Mode and Pools in it.

Just a few more questions, How to disable one gpu in a mixed rig Am running a Vega 64, however it doesnt display the amount of watts it is using, but a nvidia card on the same rig does. Also, when running AMD on afterburner it ups the power limit to +50, is this normal?

To disable one GPU - use GpuGroups and exclude the specific Device AMD use Afterburner (it must be running) and NVIDIA uses nvidia-smi.exe for power usage. Please verify that Afterburner is running. It shouldn't set PowerLimits unless you define them in GpuGroups. i run as administrator on win7x64. In cmd.exe box says.
Can not start Windows PowerShell Version 5.0 because it is not install correctly installed. Press any key to continue..
After press it is exit cmd box.
Windows 7 comes with PowerShell v2. You will need to install PowerShell 5 if you haven't (Windows Management Framework to be exact). https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54616Also, You shouldn't need to run as Admin, unless you use PowerLimits with NVIDIA or the Rig Monitoring.

both added in master 32bits it not only about adding them, but also maintaining additional versions )) Do you need that for 32bit Windows or do they perform better sometimes? Is there a need to support 32bit Windows? It shouldn't be hard to add, but will need to review all miners and that takes time

Thanks for the quick reply. It was running ok yesterday, but not today after adding the gpu groups.
Am running Afterburner 4.5.0 and Adrenalin 18.8.1
Afterburner is running prior to launching Forager. After launching several times and resetting the Afterburner power limit to back to 0, each time. Anytime i have GPU groups it always changes the power limit to +50% in afterburner, on the screen with new interval started with the green writing is loading. I have tried several times with GPU groups with 2 x 580 and 4 x 480 and each time it changes the power limit to +50%. I have tried only the 2 x 580 and then only the 4 x 480 and the same power limit increase. I have then removed the GPU Groups so they all run together, and the power limit stays the same and does not change.
Not sure if i am missing something, but this is what i have put in the config file, from the device list bat.
GpuGroups = [{"GroupName": "RX580s", "Type": "AMD", "Devices": "2,3", "PowerLimits": "100"}, {"GroupName": "RX480s", "Type": "AMD", "Devices": "0,1,4,5", "PowerLimits": "100"}]

set "PowerLimits": "0" to make Forager not change PowerLimits. Otherwise "PowerLimits": "100" is 0 in AMD Wattman, "PowerLimits": "90" is -10, etc...

So if i change it to 0 will it benchmark at 100% initially and then lower the power limit to find the most profitable power setting afterwards?

0 will benchmark whatever is currently set and that's it. So if you set something in Wattman, it will not change it.

benchmarked my rigs, but they really don't like the software it seems.
Keep getting : WARNING : NO Miners above MinProfit
And it stops mining and only giving this warning.....

Which means that's it's not profitable for you to mine. If you want to ignore this, set min profit in config to large negative value

Guess we have to change electricity costs then ? MinProfit_AMD = 0 MinProfit_NVIDIA = 0 MinProfit_CPU = 0 Set to negative Or change the electricity costs as you mentioned )
