[newfusion]

hai guys,

i have an question can i make 2 gpu working together in one mobo.

ATI 5850
nVidia gtx 470

Nope; SLI and Crossfire are not compatible.

but i do research on web you can hack physic for nvidia when ati card present

 

[crazylegs]

It may be possible but i suggest you save yourself lots of time and effort and dont bother

Also - 470 is far too good to 'waste' as a dedicated physX card in this sort of FrankenXfire setup...

If you want physX sell /swap /trade the 5850... or for crossfire vice versa.

i have 2 HD 5850 for sale if some one interested ill sale 2 for MYR 1200

with a hydra chip?

You can, if you buy a particular MSI board, but you don't want to. Seriously. You don't want to.

some of they say the combination of AMD and Nvidia is not good enough ans the msi bigbang is waste of money

there is a set of beta drivers floating around that will allow you to use the 470 for physx

257.15 is the nvidia drivers set you can use to allow physx to work along side of an ati card.

you have to "enable" a second display to the physx card to make it work. gpu-s will tell you if it is working.

I have a 5870 crossfire setup with an 8800 gs that works great
