2 GPU with different (No SLI/Cross)

Rahmadhani Osa · Jul 23, 2014

Hey all , can a computer have 2 GPU ?? example : Gtx 650 + Leadtek quadro 600 ? yes i know they've different algorithm , but i want use gtx for gaming and quadro for video editing ,

so ,if the answer is 'yes'
question 2 : thats configuration make computer unstabble ?
if 'No'
can you give me some reason ? thank you mate

Yes you can do this. It shouldn't make the configuration unstable unless your drivers are unstable. Don't get beta drivers.

You can even mix amd/intel/nvidia all in one and be perfectly fine. But the gpu that is connected to the primary monitor is which gpu it will use.

Are u sure? My answer would be NO u can't, unless both GPUs run the same drivers, which a GeForce n a Quadro wont

Why would I lie about something like this? I even do it on my other pc. Windows 7 and later allows for multiple graphics drivers to work perfectly fine. Earlier wouldn't allow it or had issues but I won't mention such obsolete os.

hmmm, i guess the quadro makes the difference, snowctrl is right, they don't play nicely.

worth a further investigation. I found a lot of people that got it to work just fine.

That's not even right, they install in different directories and you can't even use a geforce driver on a quadro or vice versa. They may share file names but being in different places windows will run both.

the conclusion is ' No ' ?
because 2 GPU only work together when they've same support driver ?

A lot has changed in 6 years. The answer remains yes in this current age.
