Can I use one graphic card for a tv and one for monitor?

Koustav Guha

My system has RTX 2060 super. And I'm planning to add another card (3070) on the same system. Now my question is if I plug my TV to RTX 3070 and monitor to the super, is there any chance of facing any problem?

Why do you want to run both cards at the same time?
In theory it'll work, but you can also just plug both devices into one card.

English is not my first language, so please excuse any confusion or misunderstandings on my end.

Yeah, I know that I can plug both to single card but I'm yet not ready to throw my super!

This seems like unnecessary power draw and heat. Waste of time.

Why throw it?

 

Just sell it?

 

I meannat best you're making your cpu work a bit harder using 2 gpu's. Then also more heat and power usage from having 2.

 

Theres basicaly only downsides in your case

Yeah, you have a valid point but can't find good buyer locally.

Hold on to it until you can find a use for it.

Having 2 GPUs in one system will not bring you any noticeable advantage whatsoever (at least in your case), so, as others have already said, all you will get is a warmer room and a (slightly) higher power bill.

Then selling is the best option. Thanks.
