Hello,
I am new to dual mining and cannot get it to work for the life of me. I applied different settings from the read me and nothing seems to work. I keep getting the same error. Would someone please post their config for nvidia setup so I can cross reference? Thank you in advance.

99-100% of CPU (i5 2500K) load with 3 GTX 970. On genoil it was 25%!!!
Fixed, will be included in next update.

I downgraded my nvidia drivers to 347.88 and get 20 Mhash per 980 using genoil. They I run a second gpu instance with decred and get 75 Mhash per card using ccminer at a 22 intensity. I want to use your claymore product, but until nvidia releases a working driver under windows 10, this is the best I can get.

this is api from dwarfpool
RIG: 4GPUS
3 x R9 280 with Claymore 5.3 catalyst 15.2 is mining ETH only
RIG: RIG3GPUS
3x R9 280 with ETHminer + proxy catalyst 15.2
Can anyone tell me what is the point of using CLAYMORE?!
The point is that you can mine 2 coins together
yes but when you mine 2 coins together the hashrate drops big time...
Did you set all the recommended paramaters in the OP guide? I use Claymore because I get better hashrate than ethminer+stratum + built in card reporting and control. I only mine eth
can you tell me about what parameters you are talking about?
REgards
GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
For multi-GPU systems, set Virtual Memory size in Windows at least 16 GB:
"Computer Properties / Advanced System Settings / Performance / Advanced / Virtual Memory".
Yes, all above is my default setting.

warning! 6.0 resets rx480 wattman's fan and acoustic level settings to default (0-1000rpm, 9** MHz) if you didn't set it in miner's config
so you get hashrate decrease after gpu gets hot

Hi! Have you solved the issue with rx480? I am getting this cards today and trying to understand what version of miner shall I use.
all my rigs are at version 5.3..
Thank you!
Peace

Hi! All.. Thank you Claymore!
Is there any benifit in updating all rigs to 6.0 for AMD users?
Thank you!

Agree with that, i want to try the last version and the 6.0 resets all fan and acoustic settings in wattman's, can you fix the problem with wattman Claymore ?

We are running a rig with 2 Nvidia cards:
- GTX 970 (maxwell)
- GTX Titan X (maxwell)
With driverversion 368.81 and cuda_7.5.18 we get about 7.5Mhs on Ethash. (both cards in total) an 95Mhs on Sia.
Running Windows 10 x64.
Other algo's give good performance, how to get it working with Claymore's dualminer?

OP shows that it was tested with a GTX 970 -- What driver version and what OS was used?
On Windows 10 with 347.52 I can't get 6.0 to work and if I update to the latest driver I have the same issue with low hash rate that plagues the GTX 970.
Is there a way to make it use CUDA 1.1 ?

NVIDIA guys - you are welcome with your stats here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/claymores-dual-miner-settings-and-statistics-1550780
We can compare with AMD ones

@claymore no 6.0 linux release ? 
per claymore in this post a few pages back, 2-3 days i think
please look back 5 pages
i will await my unbuntu desktop x64 15.10 with the 15.12 amd drivers. mayhaps i need to update drivers for linux but thats my problem.
v6.0:
NOTE: Linux version will be available in 1-2 days.

Claymore, Any news on the driver/OS combo that will be supported for Linux v6.0?. I would love to have a clean install ready to test your miner as soon as the new version becomes available.

Getting "cannot allocate big buffer for DAG" on my card.
I have used
GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
Page file set to 16gb.
Any other ideas?

15.12
IN WINDOWS, USE "SETX" BEFORE EACH ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLE--
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
Otherwise the environmental variable will NOT be set.
In Linux, use "export", and an equal sign, "=", like so:
EXPORT GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR=1
Otherwise the environmental variable will not be exported. --scryptr
I do use setx, I just didn't include it in my post, sorry. This is nvidia by the way...it's worked fine for me on AMD.
NVIDIA NEVER NEEDED ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES SET FOR OTHER ALGOS--
OK, thanks for the info. I am as lost as you, then. The settings were not required for other algos with nVidia cards. The new generation of cards is having real problems for both the Red Team (AMD) and the Green Team (nVidia). I haven't bought into either yet, waiting for good news. --scryptr

Why cpu usage so high for nvidia mining?
edit: Not intended for integrated graphics since display is set to main pci slot for AMD. Is there a work around for this?
edit 2: Actually I tried on both gpu and integrated and still has high cpu usage.

I am looking through the readme.
Would setting -ethi to lower intensity be a viable way to save resources so I could game and mine at the same time?

You can use the -di parameter to run off card(s) so you can game. It took me a bit of trial and error to turn off the right card so I could use it for gaming. Once you figure it out create a second start.bat.........one for full mining and one for gaming.
