AMD and NVIDIA in same system?

[Vlence]

I wanna learn game dev and so I thought I'd learn gameworks and gpuopen.

 

Will cards from both camps play nice together for this? I heard PhysX turns off if an AMD card is detected and I'm guessing similar things happen for other NVIDIA specific features.

 

Links would be appreciated.

It will be delegated to the CPU if a Nvidia GPu is not detected.

So in that case I don't really need an NVIDIA GPU to play around with PhysX...

 

Can the same be said for other effects from GameWorks?

Yes but it will be alot slower.

That is not nice...

 

No way to get both green and red working under the same hood?

Put a AMD and Nvidia GPU in the same system..

Yeah that didn't answer my question.

 

Will I be able to run gameworks and gpuopen in their respective cards if I have both?

I honestly would throw a 2/4gb firepro and a 2/4gb old quadro, they should work out fine and work with opengl and other types of rendering programs with the physx but keep an eye on the PCIe lanes because that can cause some problems

Oh yea absolutely

I don't want professional cards. I wanna be able to play as well.

Personal experience.

I had a GT 630 for a physX card for a 290x for a while

600s are known to allow that. I'm gonna get vega/pascal

I understand that, but instead you could throw in something like a HD 7850 and add a gtx 660 or something. If you're going for 1 gpu I would recommend a gtx 690 because of the dual gpu. hope it works out mate.

I agree about the 690.. for totally unrelated reasons..

Not an option. I have enough cash for vega/pascal. That's what I'm getting myself. I wanna know if I can use both gameworks and gpuopen on their respective cards if I have a vega and pascal card.

i'll just drop this here.

 

if someone wants to sponsor me a matrox card and an AMD card that wont fall apart if i try to benchmark it i can make a re-run of this

GPUopen and Gameworks are not exclusive to one vendor or the other.

Only stuff that does NOT work on AMD is PhysX and G-Sync. Similarily, everything but True Audio and Freesync that AMD can offer will work with Nvidia.

 

HBAO+, Hairworks, Waveworks, Lightworks or whatever its called all work on AMD just fine. Although sometimes at a higher then usual FPS cost due to Tesselation levels.

If you'd give me a second, I could go and test it for you dude.

I'm getting the rig some time during the end of the year dude... Don't wanna spend money on something that wouldn't work

Ok dude. Some serious problems you're gonna run into.2 gpu drivers in 1 pc. I have no idea.

OK, both drivers are in.

 

Will GameWorks and GPUOpen run as expected? On their respective cards? Or will some stuff get relegated to the CPU?
