I'm having an issue using a Nvidia Device Profile to set the DCRI value to 40. I think I've done everything needed but it's not applying the value from what I see when dual mining with Claymore. Please let me know if I am missing something?





Device Profiles are really only if you are using SGminer.  So, you don't need it.  But in your profit profile, you can add the DCRI value in the command line parameters, or preferably, I would put it in the secondary pool's command line parameters, so that it only applies when you are mining dual coins with claymore.

By the way... it seems you have nvidia GPUs... they are not very good at dual mining with ethereum, or even that good at mining with ethereum at all.  There are much more profitable algorithms that nvidia do much better like equihash, neoscrypt, xevan, lyra2z, nist5 and more.

I should have clarified this is with Managed Profit Miners that have been fully benchmarked and had their profit profiles customized accordingly. AM has been switching to Eth/Sia dual mining multiple times on my 2 Nvidia rigs over the last couple of days from its standard Equihash/Neoscrypt/Skein algos based on the profitability bouncing. With a Managed Profit Miner where do I adjust the dcri value since Pools don't appear to apply to MP miners? I could add it to the Command Line params but as you said that would apply even when it switches to Ethereum solo mining which it has done a couple times as well.

Do you really want your nvidia cards mining Eth or dual mining Eth/Sia?  I can't see how that would ever be profitable compared to the dozens of other algorithms that nvidia cards are better at.  You might just want to disable those algos so they don't switch to it.  Are you sure you benchmarked your cards correctly?  What kind of rigs are you running?
