Mobo compatability with Videocard Hybrid (ATI+NVIDIA)

[Data-Cain]

I wish to upgrade my CPU, MOBO and RAM in my current system.
I am currently running a Radeon HD4870 for graphics and a Geforce 8800GTS for PhysX and I wish to keep this card setup in the new system.

So my Question is;
Are there compatibility problems with certain chipsets if I wish to run these two cards together?

Currently thinking that I will get this mobo;
Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 to go with;
Intel i5 750
Geil 4G(2x2G) DDR3 1600 PC12800 CL9



Cheers,
Az.

Not with any modern chipsets.

You might run into problems with the Nvidia card if you use newer drivers. Nvidia started to disable their GPUs if it located an ATI one in the same computer. I didn't really read into it, so that's all I know, but I just wanted to let you know.

Cheers for the replies! I think I'll go ahead with the purchase

Kokin;

Yep you are correct - Nividia does disable with the latest drivers.
Fortunately for now, a user created program blocks the check when you install the drivers so you can still get it working.
