Hi mates, can I mine ETH and ETC at the same time with this miner? Thanks

Nope.

There is pool called miningpoolhub (https://miningpoolhub.com)
And there is an option to mine ETH or ETC depending of whats profitable at the moment!


THE POOL AUTOSWITCHES ETH AND ETC--

Nice to know, but ETH and ETC (and any other Dagger-Hashimoto coins) cannot be dual mined.  The DAG files differ in size and character.  The dual miner mines a memory intensive algo, and a compute intensive algo, and splits the load on the GPU so that it can be efficiently done.  Merge-mining and autoswitching are done poolside.  Merge-mining is not possible for Dagger-Hashimoto coins, because the DAG files differ, as stated above.

I just answered the same question in this thread two days ago.       --scryptr
