Hi,
To clarify, I have two computers and both of them have one GTX 690 installed. For simplicity I name them Computer 1 and Computer 2. Computer 1 runs perfectly, while Computer 2 has what I suspect to be a faulty GTX 690 installed.
Some info on Computer 1:
- Here I get the option to enable and disable multi gpu mode in the Nvidia control panel.
- GPU-Z identifies two GTX 690, and it says that 2 GPUs are enabled. I also get the option of saving two separate logs here, one for each gpu.
- MSI Afterburner also detects two separate gpus on this computer.
Some info on Computer 2:
- Here I do not get the option to enable/disable multi gpu mode in the Nvidia control panel.
- GPU-Z only identifies one GTX 690, and it says that SLI/multi gpu mode is disabled. I do not get the option of saving two logs on this computer.
- MSI Afterburner does not detect two separate gpus on this computer.
If I take the faulty GTX 690 out of computer 2 and insert it in computer 1 I get the same problems that are listed under "Some info on computer 2", and if I take the fully working GTX 690 out of computer 1 and insert it in computer 2 it works like a charm, so the problem clearly lies with the faulty GTX 690 and not one of the computers.
Is there anything I can do to make the computers detect the second gpu on my faulty GTX 690? How can the card even work with only one working GPU?
Best regards
