rx-switcher: switch xmr-stak to xmr-stak-rx when monero forks

This tool based on xmr-stak. The switcher is killing all xmr-stak instances on your system and starts automatically xmr-stak-rx as soon as the Monero network is forking to the POW randomX.

How to

You can download rx-switcher precompiled along with xmr-stak-rx.

1. keep you normal xmr-stak miner running on Monero
2. copy the files config.txt and pools.txt from 1. to the folder where rx-switcher and xmr-stak-rx is located
3. do not copy cpu.txt, nvidia.tx or amd.txt, due to new memory requirements for randomX we suggest to generate new configs to avoid that the miner crashes on the first start.
4. run rx-switcher
5. as soon as the Monero network is forking xmr-stak will be stopped and xmr-stak-rx will automatically start
6. after the network fork we suggest to start xmr-stak-rx directly and not use `rx-switcher anymore
