I use windows to mine on 4x gpu. No issues. Have tried both ubuntu and windows and decided to just stick on windows.

Fyi those 7970 lighnings go like bats out of caves. You can overclock to 1200 core easy for 27+hash.

Do you overclock within ethminer, or a win program (like msi afterburner?). I was wondering if ethminer commands are the same as cgminer (for example --gpu-engine 1200)

Ethereminer is different from cgminer. It cannot over clock within the miner.  You have to use the msi afterburner.

Hi guys, I'm about to buy 2x AMD MSI Lightning 7970 to mine Etherum, as it's quite profitable and electricity is very low cost where I am.

I've read around and many people use many different setups. I've read some people suggest against using Windows, why is this?
