Code:
GITHUB: [url=https://github.com/joonano614/DaggerGpuMiner]https://github.com/joonano614/DaggerGpuMiner[/url]

Releases: [url=https://github.com/joonano614/DaggerGpuMiner/releases]https://github.com/joonano614/DaggerGpuMiner/releases[/url]

Launch parameters:

1) GPU benchmark: DaggerGpuMiner.exe -G -M  

2) GPU mining: DaggerGpuMiner.exe -G -a -p  

3) CPU mining: DaggerGpuMiner.exe -cpu -a -p -t
8  

Different features and optional parameters:

1) "-h" - show help

2) you can list all available devices using parameters "-list-devices -G".
You can check what platform ids and device numbers they have.
3) by default GPU-miner uses all OpenCL devices on the selected platform.
You can specify particular devices using parameter "-opencl-devices 0 1 3".
Use your device numbers instead of "0 1 3".

Also use can use parameter "-d " there is count of used devices.

Workaround on issue with high CPU usage with NVIDIA GPUs.

There is an issue with NVIDIA GPUs leading to very high CPU usage. The reason is improper implementation of OpenCL by NVIDIA. When CPU thread waits for results from GPU, it does not stop, it spins in loop eating CPU resources for nothing.
There was impemented a workaround on this issue: before reading results from GPU current thread sleeps during small calculated time. CPU usage was decreased in 90%. The change made optional, use launch parameter "-nvidia-fix" to enable it. The change can decrease hashrate a bit in some cases. But GPU rigs should gain increase of hashrate. So try it and choose to use or not to use it.

First beta-version of GPU miner is released.

Source codes https://github.com/jonano614/DaggerGpuMiner

Launch parameters:
1) GPU benchmark: DaggerGpuMiner.exe -G -M
2) GPU mining: DaggerGpuMiner.exe -G -a -p
3) CPU mining: DaggerGpuMiner.exe -cpu -a -p -t
N     (N - is a number of threads)

Different features and optional parametes:
1) "-h" - show help
2) you can list all available devices using parameters "-list-devices -G"
3) by default GPU mining is performed only on the first OpenCL device.
You can specify several devices using parameter "-opencl-devices 0 1 3".
Use your device numbers instead of "0 1 3".
Also use can use parameter "-d " there is count of used devices.
