Title: Mine with both AMD and Nvidia cards in same system? Post by: PabiGamito on January 25, 2015, 10:17:29 PM Is it possible to run both nvidia and amd cards in the same system and mine with both at the same time or use one for mining and the other for gaming and regular tasks ?
If so, how do you do it. Thanks Title: Re: Mine with both AMD and Nvidia cards in same system?

Thanks But if you use the nvidia for gaming you won't be able to use physx if an amd card is detected Title: Re: Mine with both AMD and Nvidia cards in same system?

Thanks But if you use the nvidia for gaming you won't be able to use physx if an amd card is detected Great tip about that physx. Didn't know that. So on-GPU won't work at all, everything offloaded to CPU? Can't you assign another GPU to do the PhysX? (if you have a spare 750TI, best Physx accelerator ever) Title: Re: Mine with both AMD and Nvidia cards in same system?

(if you have a spare 750TI, best Physx accelerator ever) To see again physx option, you need to unplug the amd card... Title: Re: Mine with both AMD and Nvidia cards in same system? Post by: Gladimor on January 27, 2015, 05:39:04 AM I believe that it is possible to mine with an AMD and Nvidia card in the same system. Though watch out, there may be conflicts when there is an AMD and Nvidia driver in the same system.

Though watch out, there may be conflicts when there is an AMD and Nvidia driver in the same system. nope no conflict... However I think it is better to install first the nvidia driver/card then the amd. I don't use very often my amd card (mostly when I work on an amd miner) and I usually instal the amd drivers when I need them and uninstall them once I am done (I don't like catalyst)... and it works pretty well each time. |
