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

theres no problems with having them together in one system, i'd actually be running an amd/nvidia/intel gpu combo if my amd card didnt sound like a malfunctioning jackhammer xD

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.

 

Even with flagship cards?

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?

well, the way this party works is very simple.

- you need a monitor for every gpu you want to use.

- you plug a monitor in each gpu you want to use

- the monitor that's set as your primary display decides which is your primary card, and thus which does all the work.

- depending on what you're working with, or testing, you switch your primary display to the card of choice. theres always only one card that can be "used", which is no problem because that's how it'll most likely be for the end custommer, so basicly you created one machine that can test and/or develop on several different GPUs.

Any links to actual tests done like what you just described?

well, i got the idea of slotting my HD5770 in the second x16 slot on my main rig from a linus video, the linus video is VERY old, but still mostly applies.

Well I watched a linus video of two radeons and two gtxs stuffed into one machine. It ran.

 

I don't want something that just runs, I want it to do some useful work for me.

beyond that you wound find many sources because its such a ridiculous idea.

it does work just fine, theres just such a small market for the idea that its very undocumented.

Yeah you're right.

 

So this leaves me more puzzled than I was in the beginning.

 

Dual vega or vega + pascal...
