Title: Radeon 5XXX with Radeon 6xxxx
Post by: minerX on May 23, 2011, 08:37:56 AM
Any problems mixing a 5xxx with a 6xxx?  Ex. 6950 + 5850.

Thanks!

No problem here 6870 + 5850 in one case (no crossfire bridge ofc)

the only problem was that after I removed 5870, 6950 started to freeze win7 x64 when I play shockware flash videoclips(with or w/o hardware acceleration) >:(

Got it.  Thanks guys.

Are you able to use SDK 2.1 + 2.4?  Or just one of them?

different-generations of GPU's mayb use different kernel-space drivers, sometims incompatible w/each other. esp tru for non-WHQL-certified drivers[usually cleaned from this to get "WHQL" logo], aka "hotfix", "beta", "RC" and etc.
