Maxwell & Pascal in same System (Mining)

Vanion
Go to solution Solved by FrowningHippo,

Shouldn't really be a problem if the Motherboard can handle both. Just need to use mining software you can set to 1 GPU and install both of the latest drivers.

Hi,

I recently bought a Pascal GPU for mining, now I'm planing to buy a Maxwell GPU for the same rig. I don't have any experience with that so I wanted to ask if I need to know anything about installing the GPU's before doing so. Can I just install both drivers or do I need to do something a little different? 

Thx in advance.

Isn't mining when you leave your computer on and a site uses your graphics card power to give you money...? I don't know.

Can’t install more the one driver also it won’t matter which is used. Just install then and run your program. Just hope they are profitable.
