Have to admit, he isn't an idiot though.. Making people pay for something they can do without his software :p
you could dual mine without closedsource claymore shit
Care to explain how please?
start in one cmd or shell ethminer with propper parameters and on a second sgminer-decred with -I 18 and below ... will let you mine decred and et* at same time and hashrate on ethminer will not drop down ... you could play with the -I parameter... raise em or lower em and take a look at hashrate on ethminer... if it drops go 1 step back
Yeah I guessed that's what you're gonna say, but Claymore has the fine tunings to retain the stable ETH hashrate, I'll give it a try anyways.
nope its looks like... take a look at hashrate at pool and you see it is quite 10 - 20 % lower then showen in claymore
it take time to switch pool, create dag, switch back, create dag... in this time not 1 h/s is produced ... substract this from the hashrate that is showen in claymore and you will see it is slower then ethminer and sgminer with correct settings... you have to try once to find your perfect settings at sgminer (-I flag) then write a script for it to start with correct parameters for both ...
first start ethminer with screen and then sgminer with screen .... easy like hell and not this closed source miner what could hide everything in it ... nobody knows if it will not load code from web at given time, or a hidden keylogger, private key sender etc...
not a fan from such things... it is okay when dev will publish at closed source but i would never use it ...
