Hi!
I've been lurking here for half-a-year. Registered to report and issue I am seeing with ClockTweak (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=9982.360) and multi-card setup. With the strange forum restrictions in place, I have, alas, no option, but to post here and hope someone reposts at the proper thread or alerts phelix.

The output:

I:\Bitcoin\clocktweak>clocktweak.exe -a
===============================================================================
                ClockTweak v0.9.2b - bitcoinX.com/clocktweak/
===============================================================================

Compatible GPUs found on these adapters:
Adapter#:1  ID:1  Name:"AMD Radeon HD 6670"  Active:0  GPU:0
Adapter#:2  ID:2  Name:"AMD Radeon HD 6570"  Active:0  GPU:1
Adapter#:3  ID:3  Name:"AMD Radeon HD 6570"  Active:0  GPU:2
Adapter#:4  ID:4  Name:"NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti"  Active:1  GPU:3
Adapter#:5  ID:5  Name:"NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti"  Active:0  GPU:4

In reality I have "only" 3 cards - one of each type.

Further:
I:\Bitcoin\clocktweak>clocktweak.exe -r -l

                ClockTweak v0.9.2b - bitcoinX.com/clocktweak/

Shows no meaningful information.

Interestingly, AMD's own tool (http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/1128/AMD_GPU_Clock_Tool_v0.9.8.html) also fails. The only program that I was able to use to overclock the AMD cards in this set-up, is Saphire Trixx (http://www.sapphiretech.com/ssc/TriXX/)

I am really interested in a command-line tool as I am writing my own light-weight front-end, that would overclock, run a selection of miners and then minimise itself to tray, capturing all stdout output.
