Video Game GPU Compatibility Question

[MiG25Foxbat]

Do older games, those made in the 90s & the early 2000s hate multi-gpu setups?

 

Here are some of the games:

• GTA3
• GTA Vice City
• Fair Strike
• Enemy Engaged 2

Will still be trying the others...

 

Although they installed fine, upon running them, I get a BSOD.

I am unable to get the cause or even the stop code because, there are none. (I use Bluescreen View to view the BSOD logs)

It just bluescreens for a second then reboots.

 

Here are my specs:

• AMD Phenom II 960T 3.0GHz
• 8GB RAM
• Asus GTX760 x2 ROG MARS
• Powercolor 6870 x2
• Coolermaster SilentPro Hybrid 1300W
• Windows 7 Pro x64

Just to note, I installed the game on a 2.0TB Firecuda formatted to HFS+ and I am using Paragon's HFS+ for Windows.

 

Other games just run fine.

• Lock On Modern Air Combat
• Far Cry 2
• Il-2 1946
• War Front Turning Point
• Act of War High Treason
• Crash Bandicoot Nsane Trilogy
• Soviet Monsters: Ekranoplan

I mean you could always just try with one GPU and see the results. I don't see why it would though (unless I missed something)

Actually both of my GPUs are dual GPU cards each so removing one from a PCIE slot would still mean I have 2 left.

Yeah & I'm still perplexed how come these games ran fine on my other rig with lower specs.

I guess having more than one game PC does make sense.
