Posted April 15, 2019 Hello, I have a little problem witch my drivers. I have 2 GPUs, RTX 2070 and GT 210. I want to use the 210 for older monitor with VGA. When I tried to install drivers for each GPU, it´s just not working. Is there any program to control single GPU drivers? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 15, 2019 Just adapt DisplayPort to VGA. That format should work. DP, unlike HDMI, can adapt to analog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So two possibilitys: a) replace the 2070 with a VEGA b) replace the GT 210 with an AMD Card. Well, if you still wnt the 2nd GPU... There are other, better solutions as mentioned by @Princess Cadence and @dDave64. Personally I'd recommend an active DP to VGA Adaptor.

The GT2xx cards use a different branch specific to all DX10 cards.

It's on the pricey side for cables like that, but imo Cable Matters is the best of the cable/adapter brands on Amazon. Problem solved. I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used different drivers when nvidia releases unstable versions for older cards simple uninstall in device manager and select the older driver in device manager and there you have it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 15, 2019 And what Cards are you talking about?! I tried various Cards, for example Radeon X1 Series and Radeon HD5k or so that just don't work with newer drivers because of shared DLLs and other stuff...
