Running Nvidia and AMD Graphic cards in Windows 10?

Is it possible?
Has anybody tried?
I have updated to windows 10 and this doesnt seem to work. :/

Hi,
I'd say pick one or the other not both kind of deal :/

But, Isn't it supposed to run on both at the same time (ie, Optimizing the performance of both)?

You'd likely have some kind of driver conflict, no?

I dont know

I have fitted a Radeon R9 270x 2gb and an old Nvidia 8400GS like 512mb. They dont seem to perform togeather.

Dxdiag shows a video memory of over 10,000Mb which is irrevalent.

Help me out guys

Hi,
Not sure why you would care about adding a 512mg card when you have a 2gb card ?

Just for, say an additional performance

Then you need to add a second Radeon 270 and Crossfire them. There's no point in trying to run an AMD and an Nvidia card at the same time. If you can get them to work together at all, I doubt you'll get any performance benefit out of them together.

You'd probably get less performance
Mother board is wasting power on the 512mb which by the way most onboard graphic's have that much and it's disabled when a real gpu is connected.

Out of the question, don`t do it
