Title: Nvidia and AMD on single motherboard Post by: eternalforce on July 13, 2017, 01:22:43 PM I am brand new when it comes to mining so I need some guidance here to mine ETH.
So can we use gpu of nvidia and amd on single mother board, say for eg, 3 1070 and 3 rx580/480/470 etc on single rig? Will there be any compatibility issue? How many gpu can we attach on a single motherboard before the problem arise?

Ok thanks for the info. Its seems little complicated to me. I guess I'll stick with the same driver. Can we run different nvidia cards like 1060, 1070 and 1080 on a single mobo? I am planning to use MSI z270 gmaing pro carbon. Title: Re: Nvidia and AMD on single motherboard Post by: HagssFIN on July 13, 2017, 07:38:22 PM Yes. Nothing stops you using different GPUs in the same MB.

As they said above, max for Windows is 8 GPU's. Title: Re: Nvidia and AMD on single motherboard Post by: nu1mlock on July 13, 2017, 07:42:39 PM Yes you can and it's super easy. Install all cards. Install both drivers. Done.
