#Question! Does Salad officially support multiple GPUs in a system?

Task manager appears to report 0% util on one GPU and 100% on the other, but salad says 100% on both and I have no clue who's correct.

#

GPU 0:

#

GPU 1:

Looking at their temperatures, it looks like both are being used for crypto mining.

#

Salad currently only supports one GPU per PC for GPU container workloads, so once you get one, only one of your GPUs will end up being used.

#

If possible, it'd be better to have two PCs, each with one 3060

I bought a second GPU for the 3060 PC so I could maybe 2x profit on that

#

should I just mine 3rd party on that second GPU? I'd love to continue getting containers but if it makes no money i'd rather not just have the second gpu ig

#

why did you buy a gpu just for salad before even asking anyone if that's a good idea despair

#

I'm not sure if the GPU that Salad chooses is always the same, you'd have to test and see

#

but if that is the case, then yeah you can setup an external miner to just mine on the one that Salad isn't using

#

would be quite a pain to manage that when Salad tries to mine on both though..

#

the "easiest" solution would probably be to make a script that can see whether or not a miner is being run by Salad, and run your own based off that

#

I just assumed because multiple hardware shows up in salad that it works

#

I know assumptions are bad esp in this case

#

also this is interesting

#

I was avg like ~$5 but last few days its been low

#

im gonna assume this is normal but its been pretty consistently low
