I have proceeded in the order of arrival of the cards... nvidia, then amd (no problem until there) then the 750ti.
I remember I had some problem installing the 750ti too... (and I ended removing most of everything... so it can be detected...)
Try first to run the cdrom which came with the 750ti. If it doesn't work you might have to uninstall catalyst I am afraid...

Actually I already have a bunch of 280x running on my rig with AMD drivers (13.12 if I remember correctly). Anyways, I went forward and plugged the two GTX 750Ti ASUS. I downloaded the latest drivers at Nvidia's website and installed those. I placed the 2 750 Ti in the first two slots and the 3 280xs in the following slots.

To my surprise all seems to be working perfectly fine. I am using a fork of grs-sgminer for the 280xs and ccminer for the 2 750 Tis.

Thanks.

Hello everyone,

Made some search in the forum but didn't find any answers.

I currently have some R9 280X Gigabyte mining altcoins. I would like to know if anyone has been able to add some NVIDIA GPUs alongside AMD and make them all work for mining. I have two new 750 Ti Asus and would like to add them to my rig.

Thanks in advance.

I have an R9 290x alongside a 780ti and a 750ti works without any problem:
My main problem is rather the fact that I have to plugged to a monitor the R9 290x to have access to ADL and OC, but this isn't the case for 280x aside from that no problem at all and I have free heating in the room yay!!! (I won't mention that I live in the south of france and it is summer...).

Serious it works really well, amd stuff doesn't look at nvidia stuff, so when a new drivers gets instal it is done without any problem.
The only problem would be for gaming,as physics cannot be used if there an amd card around. For I need unplug the amd...

French huh? French too but let's keep it in English so others can understand! Wink

So how did you do it? Care to give more details how you achieved that and under what OS? GPU sequence? Which drivers you installed first? etc etc

I assume you also have to use two kinds of miners e.g. sgminer and ccminer/cudaminer?

Any details would be GREATLY appreciated.

I hate having those 750Ti lying around doing nothing.

The rig is headless, so only meant for mining.

Thanks.
