hi, i tried searching both google and this thread for my answer but was coming up empty Sad

i'm currently using Awesome Miner to mine to mining pool hub with profit switching with a couple of low end Nvidia cards. I might be buying an AMD card to add to the mix but before I do that I was trying to figure out how I would go about setting up Awesome Miner to use both the AMD and Nvidia cards and still mine to MPH with profit switching.

Can anyone help me out with that?

thanks! Smiley
It will be possible with two Managed Profit Miners, where one is running the AMD profit profile and the other one is running the nVidia profit profile.

The only scenario where this will require some manual configuration is if you want to run Claymore Etheruem miner, because that one will try to run on both AMD and nVidia at the same time. It's however possible to configure each profit profile to have command line parameters to Claymore to force it to use only nVidia or AMD (see -platform parameter).

thank you for the reply! I assume then that I would need to create a 3rd profit profile that has the combined hashrates of all of the cards in order to use on the "coins" and "online services" tabs so that it picks the correct algo to mine on between all of the cards?
For the profit switcher itself, it's good enough with a single profile per GPU type, as it doesn't matter if you have 1 or 4 AMD GPU's when making profit decisions. For display purposes on the Coins and Online Services tabs you can define a Group Profile where you combine the number of cards to get the full picture.
