msi afterburner pools  every gpu and the cpu for info.

so 10 gpus = about 100 pieces of info each time it polls.

It is set to poll  every 1000 milliseconds = 1 sec = 60x 1 minute.

set it to 9000 or 9 seconds = 7 times a minute it will help lag

it is under settings monitoring section.

Do you have experience using Afterburner with 10 gpus?

No  I used it with 13 gpus Grin

Open your Start Menu and enter 'Task Scheduler'

You can configure all kinds of stuff there, like for example making your miners start 1 minute after login.

Celeron vs i7 8700's doesn't help in this situation as I've got both in various rigs, with 8GB ram.  Afterburner still starts slow, almost like there is a built in timer.  I haven't tested if it's any faster on the i7 rigs though, just that it's still slower than that bat file.  Moving up the ram any further won't make a difference as it still lags a bit on my main rig with 32GB of RAM.

You need to delay the start up of the mining program. You can use the timeout /t 60 in the bat file to start the miner 60 seconds later.

Perfect, thanks!

Anyway to speed up afterburner startup in win10?  I want to put the mining program in the startup folders but can't because afterbuner starts up some 30-60 seconds later and can't have 8 GPUs firing away at 100% power during that time.  Yes everything is on SSD.

Thanks
