Hi:

I have started using your combo program (dashboard, revenue analyzer, switcher, miners, pool, & exchange  Grin) a couple of days ago, so far it has been an exciting experience, it's good, a lot of future, I would like to understand a little better how it works, and I will report a couple of problems I have had.

I have been trying it on my Gaming PC/Part Time Miner, Core i5-7500+RX580 8GB+RX560 4GB, I could use it on my mining Rigs, and recommend it to my Gaming Community, but I need to solve the following.

First my doubts:
- How do you calculate the revenue per day and I guess the currently mined coin?, I mean, do you consider the current price?, do you sell the coins at that price upon reaching certain amount?/or time?.

Problems:
- Only minor ones now, major ones got solved before I finished this message.
- WinMIner.com Live Dashboard got offline message if not used after a while, I have to open again the window from the program.
- GPUs do not start to work in some occasions, they stay idle when restarted after stopping the mining process to do some other thing, I will try to get the cause and report back.

Ideas:
- As some have already suggested, dcri control and voltage control are critical, my RX580 needs a 38 dcri and my RX560 a 24 dcri, so they are not working at their best now while mining EXP.
- I usually undervolt my cards on the Miner, now I am using AB with WinMiner, with the RX580 the OC is ok, the undervolt only reachs -96mV, so its running hot or/and noisy now, the RX560 is not usually a problem as it doesn't consume too much power, but it can not be undervolted on AB and if OC it never reaches the specified clocks, so I got only 2 MH/s, maybe a driver, AB version, etc., problem, but anyway, it could be great to add a way to control dcri, voltage and clocks in WinMiner, obviously while keeping it friendly for any casual Miner/Gamer.

Great work, keep at it,

Carlos

PS: Add Komodo as coin, it is killing it right now.
