I have 3 video cards (Nvidia), but they all need different drivers.

[Poet129]

How would I go about this. I intend to use for mining not SLI. I have tried installing the drivers regularly but it didn't work.

The cards are...

1050ti

240

7300 LE

[Ankh Tech]

1. place one card, install drivers, shutdown

 

2. remove card,

 

3. place second card, install drivers, shutdown

 

4. remove card

 

5. place third card, install drivers, shutdown

 

6. place all three, check if it works

Not a mining expert, but I suspect these cards are too old to be used for mining and/or aren't profitable due to low perf/watt anyway.

 

Newer drivers drop support for older cards, and older drivers don't support the newer cards, not much you can do.

There’s no reason to mine with them, you’re likely wasting more money on power than you’re actually making

I'm assuming a GT240 and a very very old 7300LE?

Those definitely aren't profitable anymore

 

The reason you can't run them alongside your 1050ti is due to having no drivers that support all 3 cards at the same time

I know because I tried to run a gt9600 with a gtx970 before

Yes, but I had gotten this to work with a 1050ti and 730 but still different drivers.

The latest driver still supports both, meaning any driver that supports the 1050ti will support a gt 730

 

But anything 500 series or older have been dropped I think

Yeah that aint gonna work.

Not sure if the gt240 driver supports 7300

 

But you have another problem, does your mining algo supports GPU this old? Most algo needs 4gb or more vram from what I know, so there's that too

You wont be mining at all with GT240 and 7300LE. Heck, even 1050ti is useless for mining nowadays.

30 cents a day isn't useless when you don't have to pay for power.

yeahsame here, I dont pay power or water, so mining on the oldest card ever is still profitable

thus why I want my two old cards working aswell.

try mining on them individually, see if it even works, before pulling your hair trying to make everything work at once

[Poet129]

This seems to work...

After restarting this errored and before so they weren't usable. Last question does linux support Having any gpu combination in a system not SLI but in the system functioning?

Any updates on linux support, I will be trying this to see if it works if not.

I haven't found a way to make this work.
