Title: ETH Mining with different cards on one board Post by: 1337leet on March 20, 2021, 08:02:49 PM Hello guys,
I have got a mainboard with 2 PCIe slot. In the first (x16) slot I installed a RTX 3090. I would like to add a second card to the other (x4) slot. Due to the availability of 30XX cards I would like to use something like a 2080 TI as second card. Question: Does this affect the haspower of the first card? I mean I would maybe need two different drivers - if that's possible? Miner is T-Rex Title: Re: ETH Mining with different cards on one board Post by: philipma1957 on March 20, 2021, 08:14:49 PM it should work okay

With those two the same GeForce Nvidia driver would install for both GPU's and the mining software should detect each card. You can also mix AMD and Nvidia GPU"S on the same rig if you install both drivers.

Miner is T-Rex But you can't avoid other overheating problems, because the RTX 3090 and 2080 TI are the hottest cards :) The 3060 should be inserted into the (x8) slot so that there are no problems with decreasing the hash rate, and in your case it is better to install at least one video card through the raiser to achieve better cooling. Even if you install both video cards in (x1) slots, it will not affect their mining hashrate.

I mean I would maybe need two different drivers - if that's possible? Miner is T-Rex In my current situation, I am mining with an Rx5600 xt(amd) together with gtx1070 (Nvidia) and it works fine. I thought at first it wasn't compatible because they are totally different, and add to that it's a red and green cards, basically these two are competitors and yet they are working in my pc together. You would not have any problems with two green cards working on. Btw I am using nanopool, and windows 10 OS. Also I am running the msi afterburner. |
