I have read that mixing slow and fast miners on a vardiff pool is a bad thing?

I have one rig mining Max for the past day or so, thinking of swapping my other rig over for a day or so also.

It has 2-280x and one old 5770 (pulls about 200kh on scrypt)

Now if I was to swap to a vardiff pool would the slow miner break the retargeting for my worker?

If so, is there a way in cgwatcher to tell just that card to submit shares to another worker?

Any info would be great. Thanks

You can register two different workers in your pool account.
Point your fast cards to one worker, and point your slow cards to the other one.


Thankyou, but how do I do this from within cgwatcher?

All cards in the one rig use the one worker? Im unsure on how to make the one card use another worker name?

Cheers

hm...I have no idea about it as I haven't used cgwatcher...

Thankyou for the reply, do you know how to do it from within cgminer? Or would it simply be better to pull the card from the rig all together?

Cheers

What about using "-o stratum+tcp://pool:port -u username1 -p password1" for the fast cards, and use "-o stratum+tcp://pool:port -u username2 -p password2" for your slow cards?
