Title: same graphics card different manufacturer
Post by: MathiasPetit on April 22, 2016, 06:00:34 PM
Hello,
i had a mining rig with 4x asus amd radeon r7 370, today i did upgrade my rig with 2 second hand amd radeon r7 370 graphic card both different companies.
xfx and sapphire

but i am having an issue that both cards get and error message in my device manager.
I did reinstall the drivers etc but nothing helps.
can i fix this problem or is it just incompatible because its not asus (as the other 4 cards).

Did you install drivers for each card??

In a 2 card setup I had sometime ago,I needed to run the driver install for each card,can't remember how I went about it though  ::)

Maybe through device manager..............

Yes you should go to device manager, then find Display Adapters and click update on any thing there that have a yellow ! 
This should update you to the latest drivers of your display adapters (graphic cards)

Device drivers Form AMD are universal. Doesnt matter what vendor. You can mix all.

That is right. I use the 15.11 for 7970, 280x, 7950, R9 390 and R9 Fury. These cards are in the same rig.
