Something I really dislike about your miner Claymore is the fact that if I'm dual mining ETC, when DevFee starts I lose another 30-40 seconds because it needs to swap to a different DAG and then after DevFee ends it changes again to a different DAG (132 on ETC 130 on ETH).
I really, really dislike it about your miner.
Just set an ETC pool for your devfee if mining ETC for christ sake, I understand you do a good job with your miners (you also make an awful lot of money, but it's cool anyway, it's deserved), but that's a long way from 1-2%, it's much closer to around 5% of lost hashrate each our with this dag swapping.

You can use pools that accept wallet address directly and remove "-allpools 1" option.

Hi Claymore,
Because of the AMD init bug (where cards are not initiated sequentially) the current miner version (9.5) is unable to know which card is which.
After looking at HWiNFO I noticed that each card has a DeviceInstanceId which doesn't change when I reboot my machine. Why can't I use that to target a OC on that card? Right now every time my machine reboot I have to manually OC each card (Kinda annoying).
Doesn't sound like an easy implementation but it doesn't hurt to ask Smiley

Miner cannot read DeviceInstanceId via OpenCL. But recently I finally found a way to match the OpenCL list of GPUs and the list of GPUs that is used in ADL for temperature/fans/OC management, it must help, I will try to put it in next update.
Also now I can enumerate GPUs as AfterBurner does.

Which is the way for?
