hey all, new to mining and i have a couple questions. i'm running crossfired 6950's. when i select which device to run on, i can only select 1 of my cards, do i need to have two instances of the gui running at the same time? also, if you could tell me which flags i should be using for my cards that'd be a great help.

Forgive me my ignorance, but isn't crossfiring using 2 cards as one? Would it be strange to have just one card in the list?
If not, then you just indeed have to run two miners, but the program can run both in one view. [File > New OpenCL Miner]

yeah, it links them and shares the workload on both cards for most programs, but i've noticed with things like this and distributed computing projects you need to run separate instances on both cards. i didn't notice the new opencl miner option, worked like a charm. thanks.
