2 Gpu's on same Computer wont work

[`WHooami]

Hello

 

I got a Dell precision t1600, and 2 Different GPU's. And I want to put both on my computer so I can have 3 screens. I now tried for 2 hours just trying to test different things. looked at settings. read online, and nothing worked for me. so do anyone has a clue what to try?  Or if you know if there is a way I could use the ports on the motherboard with the GPU. 

 

I know they both work, tested them in the computer separate. 

 

GPU's

Geforce 210

Nvidia Quadro 600

This is a working pc, not Gaming pc, though I should tell you guys that.

you do not need both to run 3 monitors

 

they're probably a combination of nvidia or AMD cards, will not work together usually

or two nvidia or amd cards, probably are not from the same generation or sku, will not work

Knowing what cards would be handy.

The power supply might not be able to supply enough power to the 2 GPUs. Anyways, you only need 1 to run 3 monitors.

So sorry for that.
 

Though I wrote that down. 2 sec will edit post

LOL, the cards must be the same to run them on SLI or crossfire

You could have the first card running on two displays and the second card on the one display.

Kinda what I want to, but they won't work together. if i plug both cards in only 1 card will work.

this isn't even about SLI ... it's simply about running more monitors. 

 

you can't sli a geforce 210 anyways ...

i think the dell motherboard is the problem

its not designed for 2 GPUs

One or two PCI Express® x16 Gen 2 discrete graphics cards supporting 75W maximum combined power.

On the T1600 specs. Maybe having both at the same time hits power limits and then don't work.

How many outputs does each graphics card have?
