I just made a build with an i75820 and a GFX 1070 with 32 gig for work in Unreal Engine.
Since this runs desktop and the engine via the GFX would there be a reason to use another GPU, a very small one for 100 bucks or so, for running desktop, editing software and so forth that does not use the GPU?
I am asking because my laptop has 2 gpu, one small integrated that is used on desktop tasks, and one for heavy editing and 3D software. So the geforce in the laptop is idle a lot of the time, and I can effectively work in Unreal Engine without using the CPU, while using the CPU for simultaneusly soling editing tasks and other issues.
Would there be a reason for 2 cards for that specific purpose?
FIY I Cannot use SLI in unreal engine, so that is not what I am asking.
