Topic: Multiple USB miners on Windows is slower than a single miner (Read 273 times)
NeuroticFish,
I am not currently using a GekkoScience USB hub, but you are likely onto something. I appreciate the redirect to the Gekko specific thread, I was not aware that existed.
Thanks for the assistance.
I am using cgminer with a NewPac miner in a powered USB hub. Overclocked I can get about 100gh/s.
I got a 2nd USB miner, configured the proper driver, and reloaded cgminer. cgminer detects both devices, but both sit around 50gh/s.

I've never used USB miner, but I've read somewhere not long ago about similar problem and iirc one possible problem could be that the USB hub doesn't provide enough power for both miners.
So this would be first thing to check. Do you use Gekkoscience hub?
Even more, I suggest you read the Gekkoscience Newpac related thread and also ask there. It should increase (greatly) your chances get answers from people actually using exactly that miners.

I've seen videos online of people running several NewPac miners at once, but no one mentions any custom config to get them all running at a fast speed.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!
