Hey there,
I have a RIG/PC with 3 gpu's. and 'd like to temporarily use one of them for gaming. But I have no clue how to exclude one gpu out of cgminer 3.7.2 and the mining. Does anyone have a clue how to do this?
And do some of you do the same? I wonder if it's even possible to play a game and mine some coins with cgminer at the same time.. maybe you've had experience with this sort of workload already?

I would suspect using something like
--device|-d <arg> Select device to use, one value, range and/or comma separated (e.g. 0-2,4) default: all
(taken from the Readme.txt file of cgminer 3.7.2)

You can disable GPU from the miners menu. then re-enable it there. press [G]pu -> [D]isable -> Select GPU

Alright thanks to both of you!
I've first disabled gpu 1 but it was laggy as hell ingame because of the intensity of the other two gpu's.. so I slowly put the intensity lower until I was satisfied with the ingame performance and ended up at intensity 12 (of formerly 19). Also I enabled gpu 1 again and felt no difference.
So I'm able to play TESO at ultra settings while still having 65% of my usual mining output
