Mixing two graphic cards in the same cpu

Nicholas_112 · Jul 27, 2017

Recently my MSI GTX960 2GB graphic card broke down and sent for warranty, so instead of waiting for a month, i bought a new ASUS GTX1050ti 4gb graphic card~ And now i received the GTX960 and decided not to sell it~ and would like to put it into my pc together with the 1050ti.
So will it work? Like sort of getting more performance from both cards together?

Not really much it can do. SLI (2x GPUs working together for improved performance) can only be done with 2 identical cards. On a second note the GTX 1050 Ti can't be SLI'd to begin with only the GTX 1070 and higher. The only thing you can really do with it is run a dedicated PhysX card but honestly not really worth it today imo. Might as well sell the card for some cash for something else. Hope this helps

You could use it as PhysX card if you have any games that use PhysX or you could use for folding alongside the 1050Ti but other than that it's pretty much pointless.

Sorry for laye replied~ Well i tried that just a few days after i asked that question~ And ya like u guys said, ntg worked. So i decided to sell it to my friend~ well to the 1050Ti~ not saying that it has the superb performance but it does delivered pretty good performance for these few months with gtav battlefield 1 and other games. Liked it so much! And thank you guys for helping me out~
