We didn’t recommend using the Chinese driver in our mining GPU video, but now, we’ll show you how to make Nvidia’s drivers work for yourself – And how to go deeper. Buy a P106 (mining "GTX 1060") on Taobao: https://lmg.gg/8KV9W Buy a real GTX 1060: On Amazon: http://geni.us/rveAUH On Newegg: https://lmg.gg/8KV6B Download link for GeForce driver 416.34: https://lmg.gg/8KV93 Download link for HxD: https://lmg.gg/8KV9m Download link for DifferentSLIAuto: https://lmg.gg/8KV9P Download link for 7-Zip: https://lmg.gg/8KV9p TechPowerUp Forum Thread: https://lmg.gg/8KV91 How to mod the P106 driver Make sure Secure Boot is disabled and Windows is in testsigning mode Check your motherboard manual for information on how to disable Secure Boot Testsigning can be enabled by opening up a Command Prompt or PowerShell as administrator, then typing: bcdedit /set {current} testsigning on bcdedit /set {current} nointegritychecks on This can be done for a single boot by going to Start -> Power -> Restart and holding shift while clicking Restart, then choosing Troubleshoot, then Advanced Options, then Startup Settings - Once you get to the menu, choose to disable driver signature enforcement. After restarting, you’ll know it worked if some text is displayed in the lower right corner of your desktop Download and extract the GeForce driver using 7-Zip In the extracted folder, go to the Display.Driver folder and open nv_dispi.infusing Notepad++ Search for lines containing 1B87 (P104-100), 1BC7, (P104-101) 1C07(P106-100), and 1C09 (P106-090) Change each line's Section number to match the 1C06 (GTX 1060) line - On 416.34, that means from Section110 to Section108 On the third set of lines, the Section numbers will be different; Again change it to match the 1C06 (GTX 1060) line - On 416.34, that's Section109 to Section107 Save the file Install the driver as normal – Windows will complain that it’s unsigned; Click allow. Right-click the desktop, go to Display Settings, then Graphics Settings From here, you can force any game to use the P106 to render while your integrated GPU is used for display output. How to perform the SLI mod Make sure Secure Boot is disabled and Windows is in testsigning mode Check your motherboard manual for information on how to disable Secure Boot Testsigning can be enabled by opening up a Command Prompt or PowerShell as administrator, then typing: bcdedit /set {current} testsigning on bcdedit /set {current} nointegritychecks on This can be done for a single boot by going to Start -> Power -> Restart and holding shift while clicking Restart After restarting, you’ll know it worked if some text is displayed in the lower right corner of your desktop Install both graphics cards you wish to attempt SLI with The first three characters of the PCI device ID MUST match to enable SLI To find out what the device ID is, right-click the start button and click Device Manager In the Display adaptors list double-click the card you want to check. Under the Details tab, click the drop-down and then click Hardware IDs. It will look like this: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1F07&SUBSYS_86701043&REV_A1 VEN_10DE means Nvidia, while DEV_1F07 is the device ID – In this example, an RTX 2070. So in order to run SLI, the other card’s device ID will have to also start with DEV_1F0 Download and install the GeForce driver as usual Download and extract the DifferentSLIAuto package Go to C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository and sort by date Go into the newest folder beginning with nv_dispi.inf Copy the nvlddmkm.sys file to the DifferentSLIAuto folder Open the install.cmd file in the DifferentSLIAuto folder in Notepad++ Replace the three mentions of nv_dispi.inf in install.cmd with the folder name we got the nvlddmkm.sys file Open the nvlddmkm.sys we copied in a hex editor (HxD) In HxD, go to Search, then Find, then click the Hex Values tab Search for 79050fba6b240e Position the cursor at the start of these values Replace with C7432400000000 (no need to delete first, just type over it) Save the file Reboot into Safe Mode with Networking Click Start, then Power, then hold shift while clicking Reboot In the menu that comes up, click Troubleshoot, then Advanced Options, then Startup Settings (on some PCs, this may be behind a “show more options” arrow) - Once the PC reboots, press 5 on the screen that appears. Run install.cmd in the DifferentSLIAuto folder as administrator Reboot into normal mode Enable SLI (hopefully)

3dfx was the king of the graphics card world in the 90s, and in a flash they were gone. The Voodoo 5 6000 was the last GPU 3dfx produced, and released – Could it have changed the face of PC gaming?

To my understanding, a graphics card that display artifacts can either have a dying GPU or faulty VRAM, correct? In the first case, it's just a matter of time for the card to die altogether, with the GPU losing contact with the die. But if it's the VRAM, can it be used as a secondary graphics card for a SLI setup, or would the artifacts be displayed on the screen? Someone told me that the GTX 1000 series was projected to display a black screen if any sector of the VRAM is faulty, and that's why you don't often find artifacting GTX 1000 GPUs. Does it work similarly on another generation of cards, so I can distiguish between good or bad SLI candidates?

I have an AIO liquid cooled 2080 by GIGABYTE in my system right now (13700k, z690 board, 32GB DDR5) Lately I've been noticing that I am VRAM bottlenecked on a few of the games I like as I only have 8GB. I'm fine turning down settings, but it would be nice if I had more. Conveniently, I have a 2nd air cooled 2080 by EVGA hanging around and I was wondering if it would be possible to add that card to my system in to double my VRAM. Both cards have the SLI connector thing on the side. I know a lot of games don't support dual GPUs for rendering frames, but would I be able to somehow just use the EVGA card for extra VRAM? I have no idea how SLI works or anything, so this might not even be possible, but I thought I would ask.

Hello. I have a ZOTAC GTX 1080, AMP! Edition, since 2016, but before that I had other graphics cards from ZOTAC, such as a GTX 660 Ti and two GTX 970 (actually four), one of which failed and was returned. My question is whether it is possible to do SLI between the AMP! Edition of the GTX 1080 and the Mini model. I ask this because my GTX 970 SLI was not as smooth to run as it should have been. Firstly, I had a GTX 970 Dual-Fan, which I still have today, and I bought an Extreme Core, but there was no way to SLI them both because they were incompatible. I returned it to the shop and bought an identical Dual-Fan, but this one didn't do SLI either because the part-number didn't match. Then I received another Dual-Fan, which had a slightly different part-number, but it worked along with the card I already had. There are several reports on the Internet, such as this thread: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/user/180172//222166// There's even a post of mine among them. Anyway, what I want to know is if I will have problems when trying to use a GTX 1080 AMP! Extreme and a GTX 1080 Mini. I don't know if this nonsense (incompatibility) of the 900 series also affected the 1000 series.

Multi-GPU setups like SLI and Crossfire once ruled the PC gaming scene, but micro stuttering and development complexity have made them obsolete. Why, then, are we boldly predicting that the future of gaming is multi-GPU? Ross Tregemba's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@gtastuntcrew302

I recently acquired a sas card but I can't figure out how to set it up properly! I'm new to this and I naively started looking for some software, driver or utility to install, but later found a documentation pointing out the "ctlr+h" key combo at boot. Problem is that when I try to do this (as shown in the picture below) right after it blinks "WebBIOS will be executed after POST complete", the screen turns black and it either reboots to windows or hangs indefinitely with the black screen doing nothing... If WebBIOS means it needs netowrk (which I don't think) I'm connected through a working network card. I've seen other SAS Controller cards with batteries and think it's just for protection in case of power loss, but mine in any case doesn't have it if even if I'm not sure it's the culprit... This is my card: It was advertised as "LSI 2208", and this is the Amazon link where I got it. Unfortunately I had to wait around a month before trying it out as I had been busy at work and can't return it now, so I really hope I can manage it to make it work! Thank you in advance Edit: In the boot screen picture it says there are 0 virtual drives, I'm not sure if it's related, but actually I have a SFF-8087 to 4 SATA cable connected to 4 drives, 2 of which have a windows software raid mirroring, and the other 2 are normal blank drives..

I know the general rule of thumb is to go with a single GPU, but with prices of new cards not normalizing anytime soon and some older generations of used cards still going for way more than what they are really worth, could it make sense to buy older matching cards and running them in SLI/Crossfire for some kind of performance increase in the interim?

I am looking for help with a SLI issue with GTA5 i know the game has sli support but for some reason on lowest settings i'm barly getting 60fps it shows i have 8.1gb vram in the settings but using 2.3gb i tried using one card and there was no change but also both cards are only running at 15-30% usage on sli and 40% using a single card i should be able to run the game no issues. i used to run the game for a few hundred hours on 100+fps if anyone has a profile for profileinspector i could try aswell that would be great CPU i7-4790k @ 4ghz Motherboard asus rog MAXIMUS VII HERO RAM 8,192 MB Kingston DDR3 x 4 GPU 2x NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 sli oc

Hey there everyone! First off:I am a very BIG fan of retro gaming stuff and i am just playing around with older hardware for fun and pushing things to its limits. Now heres the problem...actually i am using a HP Z230 Workstation (got this one for free as a sortout in my company), so far so good -its a nice machine imo. Now i got my hands on two geforce 9800gt 1gb (one from Zotac the other one is a PNY - also for free). These cards are able to use in sli, and of course i want to use it to see how they perform. Now is the main problem that the mainbord isnt SLI "ready". I found a page of some russian guy who created a mod to use SLI with every mainboard So far so good, unfortunately, these stuff is really old and non of the links still work... I got one of the mods working (autoSLI i think), but the only thing i get is a BSOD cause of the nvmllkmd.sys file. I would really love to get this working and it drives me crazy i cant figure it out how to do it.... Can anybody help me with this? System Specs: HP Z230 Workstation 400W PSU I7 - 4790 32gb 1600mhz DDR3 Zotac 9800gt ECO 1GB PNY 9800gt ECO 1GB SLI Bridge mounted Mainboard- cant really tell Btw: sorry if my english aint all correct, i am from Austria (not Australia) and my english isnt quite on top anymore

I have 2 graphic cards Nvidia 1650 Super (4GB) and AMD 550 (2GB) and I wanted to sell my AMD card but cant find good buyer. So I was thinking can we make SLI for that or not. And If we could then will that help in performance or its just make it worse.

Hey guys, I could use some help, I've put my first PC together. I seem to not be able to put the GPU's in SLI. I've uninstalled and re-installed the drivers, I'm not sure if the GPU's are just old or if my bridge is bad. If you guys have any ideas please let me know.

Hello, I have been trying to fix my SLI issues and I think I might of finally find the reason but don’t know how to fix it. When I look in my Bios my cards are listed as running at x8 PCI and x4 PCI even though both cards are most definitely slotted in the correct lanes. How do I change it so they are running in x16? Currently when I go into Nvidia control panel there is no option to even enable SLI specs: Ryzen 5800x 2x16gb Corsair 3600 2 MSI lightning 980ti Asus ROG Crosshair vii Samsung 980 m.2

Hello, Today I did a partial rebuild of my system. By that I mean I replaced my CPU, motherboard, and ram but did not replace my two MSI 980ti Lightning’s. Went this route while I’m waiting to hopefully get my hands on a GPU sometime next year. However after completing the build and firing up the system I checked to make sure everything was in working order. I noticed that SLI is listed as disabled in hardware monitor and when I go to Nvidia control panel to turn it on, there is no SLI menu option. The cards drivers say they are up to date.

Hi there, I'm Pablo from Argentina. I'm having an issue with a desktop pc i'm trying to build for my gf. I had laying around an i7-4770k with a maximus vi hero formula, and two gtx 1080 i stopped using. The issue i'm having is that the second card isn't recognized in the BIOS GPU DIMM POST. Basically it shows only the first GPU in the x16 slot. I had a single-slot gt 640 from a nas server i use and decided to chunk it in the third PCIE slot.. and voila... suddenly GPU DIMM POST shows all three cards in x8/x4/x4 config. I do not understand why this happens and would really appreciate some help from the community.

Hi, I am wondering if it’s worth upgrading/possible for my pc. I mainly play games on my PlayStation but from time to time I play some pc games (in 1080p and 144hz if possible). I use my pc for video editing also! Is it possible to upgrade the graphics card, and what card would you recommend (thinking about bottlenecking). And do you recommend any cpu? (Basically I’m looking if there are any upgrades available to let me improve graphics/FPS in games). Is getting a second gtx 970 and doing sli an option? (Even though I probably have to upgrade PSU then). Or should I wait a year or two and get a completely new pc when the new graphics cards hopefully are cheaper? My current build is: (PSU) Cooler Master B500 (CPU) Intel core i5-4690 (Motherboard) Msi B85-G43 Gaming (Ram) HyperX Savage Ddr3 1600Mhz 24GB Ssd

Hi, I put a 2nd GTX 1070 in my PC today to play with it in SLI. However, it is neither recognised (device manager) nor does it receive updates. I had it in another PC before and it worked perfectly. What could be the reason for this and what can I do about it? Best regards Ratatte

In Valhalla around 30-47FPS also Red Dead 2 with DX12 (screen flickers with Vulkan) My GPU (if SLI possible GPUs) runs often very hot (~78-90°C) (usage 95-98%) - newest Nvidia drivers allways installed. Also sometimes my screen freezes in AC Odyssey, Origins and Valhalla. Screen is stuck in last frame and nothing works, only forced shutdown... My CPU stay kinda cool (<60°C) with a low usage. - runs around 3800MHz - 4000MHz Should i upgrade my CPU and MB? or GPU? or both? Or any other recommendation? My budget is also flexible, but i don't think that a 5950X and a RTX 3090 is needed.. or am I wrong? Thank you in advance for helping with advice. You guys make a very awsome job. A lot of people, including myself appreciate what you guys are doing with feeding us information and recommendation; also here in Austria Best regards, Christian
