Topic: Mining a different pool per GPU on same pc? If so, easy setup within cgminer? (Read 1092 times)

actually, I figured this out almost immediately.. not via the script way though..

I already had a Startminer.bat file created for various pools..I simply ran an instance for each pool I wanted and it automatically connects and runs ALL cards FULL bore..and then obviously split the work amongst the gpu's...but I wanted a dedicated GPU per POOL.. so simply press G and then D to disable whatever card I wanted... so now I'm running 1 card for each of three separate pools...

simple enough...

but if someone has the simple code to add/edit in a startup.bat script to do it all in one shot that would be great.. I found one but it always just connected to the first server listed (basically had another " -o http://whateverpool:port/ -u username -p password" line)

as for the rejects... all is good! no more rejects or any HW errors.. runs just as good...BUT as I did..DEFINITELY better to run DEDICATED GPU per pool...then it will go FULL Hash RATE and all that no prob...but when you let each gpu split and do work of several pools you lose some of your overall hashrate output... ie i connected to TWO pools on ONE 7970 and when running alone I get 680-705 kh/s but split amongst TWO servers i get about 260-290 kh/s (so totalling approx 560 kh/s) meaning I lose about 120-170 kh/s...or roughly 15-20%


but definitely doable and quite easy for those who want to try.. but btw, only doing this for pool testing at the moment

I tried this with my two cards and the result was a lot of rejects. I dont knowif this is the case for everyone though :/

Just curious..if I have 3 gpu's in the one system and I want to (for brief testing) connect to 3 different pools at the same time and use 1 GPU for each pool, can this be done? If so, is it a simple extra couple of lines in the CGminer scrypt file?

If so, examples please?....

Thanks!

*EDIT* have since solved...see below..but if you do know an easier script..still feel free to help/post
