couldnt get the drivers to run side by side properly I ended up trading both gtx 570s for cash + 5870 gpus Title: Re: HD5870 and Palit GTX570 runing and mining on a single pc ? Post by: drcoin on June 11, 2011, 03:59:01 PM I'm running a 5830 and gtx 260 in the PC with no problems at all, so I don't see any reason your setup shouldn't work. Your power supply is more than capable.

Or it will be better if i keep my gtx570 and buy 2 more RADEONS 5870 ? Is 700w enough for them ? Title: Re: HD5870 and Palit GTX570 runing and mining on a single pc ? Post by: Basiley on June 11, 2011, 05:02:08 PM I plan to sell the GTX570 and buy 3 x RADEON 5870 is my PSU with 700W enough ? IMO, no in both cases. even if you mean "keep removed from system/PC" about 570 in 2nd case/variant.Or it will be better if i keep my gtx570 and buy 2 more RADEONS 5870 ? Is 700w enough for them ? but thats strongly depend what EXACTLY you PSU can output on 12+V bus[in Amps]. more likely that you need about 850W or more powerful , PSU.

My next rig will be high end ;D Thanks for the posts guys Title: Re: HD5870 and Palit GTX570 runing and mining on a single pc ? Post by: Basiley on June 11, 2011, 07:10:59 PM if you PSU is not powerful enough, you not miss it.
