algo=qubic account=my_sub_account pool=qubic1.hk.apool.io:3334
Configuration files for mining with GPU only
algo=qubic account=my_sub_account pool=qubic1.hk.apool.io:3334 cpu-off=true
Configuration files for mining with CPU only
algo=qubic account=my_sub_account pool=qubic1.hk.apool.io:3334 gpu-off=true
Configuration files for mining with CPU and specify the number of CPU thread
algo=qubic account=my_sub_account pool=qubic1.hk.apool.io:3334 gpu-off=true thread=8
