Two Video Cards — Nvidia 3070 ti & AMD

<< < (2/4) > >>

It works, I did that for a while with my PC with a GTX 970 with two monitors plugged in and a 6450 that had my CRT TV connected to it. Some fiddling around will have to be made in mame so it shows up on the correct monitor, but I never had issues playing games.

I didn't keep that setup because I prefer the convenience of a dedicated arcade PC, but it works if no other alternatives are available.

This is good to hear. I will primarily use this for arcades, but i have a 48” OLED that’s I’d like to utilize for modern games as well.

My next question is: what is a good, basic AMD card? I have a more advanced card now and I’ll like to downgrade to save on wattage. I recall that some people recommended to avoid cards with a ribbon connected to the VGA port, but I wasn’t sure if that was hearsay or not.

Thanks

IDK specifically what errors ppl are getting. I've heard ppl talk about problems installing, and windows not knowing which driver to use. I'd imagine things are getting better, so go with what Calamity says on that :)

philexile:
Yes — I’m following Calamity’s guidance, always. :)

So, quick question: my AMD Groovy video card is an R9 380 and it a fairly sizable card. Between it and the new Nvidia card, there isn’t much room in my case or between the cards.

Does this high-powered AMD card help with Groovy or could I downgrade to a more modest smaller AMD card, like an HD 5450?

Groovy is my main priority here, and if I need to instead downgrade my Nvidia card for something smaller, so be it!

Thanks

It helps, you can use higher frame-delay. A better CPU is more important, but the GPU does matter.
