There is a version of sgminer that supports both VTC mining AND different number of gpu threads, I'm pretty sure it's this one https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=17533.msg146069#msg146069

To mine VTC:
sgminer --kernel psw --nfactor 11

P.S. You might get better results on different kernel, I just use psw.

I tried running two instances but when i start the second client it takes the first one config of gpu's thread. Naturally in the first one was enabled only 2 gpu's and the others on the second.
Probably i have to run two completely different miner? Sgminer and vertiminer for example?

AFAIK no fork of vertminer currently supports different thread numbers, sgminer style.

I'd suggest you try running two instances of vertminer, one with -g 1, one with -g 2, each with only the relevant devices enabled.

eg if Device 0,1 are your 7950s: -g 1 -d 0,1  and -g 2 -d 2,3

This worked for me in brief testing, no reason this shouldn't work longer term that I'm aware of (I ended up leaving my mixed-card rigs on sgminer and I'm only running vertminer on my 290X rigs)

Hi all,
i'm mining an adaptive algo coin with Kev Vertminer but my rig is composed by 2 7950 and 2 280x.
How can i set different numbers on gpu-threads??
Command "gpu-threads" : "2,2,1,1" isn't accepted by my miner in .config file.
