Pretty straightforward question in the title.

Is it possible to do this?

As it is now, I've been manually resetting my GPU back to default before qutting.  That or I open Trixx and reset using that.

Just wondering if there's a way to automate it by cgminer before it closes it self since I just got a 2nd 5970 and when the 3rd comes back it'll probably be a huge pain doing so everytime I want to play some DoTA2, SC2, or whatever else.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

GPU-Z seems to show that the clocks remain at whatever I had them set to by cgminer after quitting.

I've also closed GPU-Z and re-opened it as well to see if maybe it didn't update the readings for whatever reason.

cgminer reads the profile on startup and saves it. When quitting it's supposed to return it to that saved profile. It works on linux, but you know how it is with windows... sometimes it just won't do what you tell it.

I just have it set up to run again in a .bat setting the clock speeds to normal. Like this:

Code:
cgminer.exe -l 10 -o http://gpumax.com:8332 -u 4f2629c958d5d914e001d1f5 -p abc123 -o tygrr.zapto.org:8337 -u Garr255 -p asdf -o http://pool.bitclockers.com:8332 -u garrett -p yayforbitcoins -o http://api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 -u garr255.garrett -p slushy -I 9,4 --gpu-engine 877,877 --gpu-memclock 350,350 --gpu-fan 85,85 --temp-overheat 80,80 --temp-cutoff 85,85
pause
