Hi Dazeb,

apologies I dont know how else to contact you as the email/social media links in your website seem to be broken...

I came accross this article of yours:

https://dazeb.uk/dual-mining-chia-ethereum-using-gpu-passthrough-proxmox-7/

I wanted to ask two questions: 1) How do you undervolt the GPU, do you use the MSI afterburner from WITHIN the guest OS or is it done in the Host via the usual linux settings?

2) I know you can only pass one GPU at a time to each VM, have you seen any issues with stopping the mining VM, switching to another VM with GPU pass through, then once done there, stopping it and restarting the mining VM?

Thanks, And sorry again I contacted you via a random github issue!

Hey, no worries ill see if i can help you but it was a while back since i tested this.

Usually I use Linux which makes under-volting a lot easier but I cant see why it wouldn't work on Windows. If the software under-volt doesn't work you can always modify the bios and flash it from within windows vm and i have tested this everything was ok as far as flashing goes.

Switching the GPU's around to different VM's is fine but will most definitely require a reboot in between. Im assuming you want to make a gaming VM and a separate mining VM which works ive tried it but you are treading on experimental land expect to have some issues because the information is scare but i wish you the best.

No need to apologise mate its all good.

All the best dazeb
