    Old and new Graphics card not working together

    nvidia drivers stopped supporting the older cards so maybe you can run it off of windows drivers(go to device manager uninstall card). you might have to look up how to keep card from checking for new drivers. tbh just look at other multi display options and use this as a coaster.

    Which RX 570 / RX 580

    the rx 580 with a mild overclock will keep up and pass a Gtx 1060 which can handle 1080p 60hz gaming on ultra settings with nearly any title. the 8gb rx 580 will support vr. However, the rx 570 will handle high settings 1080p just fine so it really just comes down to budget. a rx 580 can...

    How to test if the gpu is working fine?

    if for some reason u need to know if it is at 100% (it seems fine to me)get the 3d mark demo and look up other 1070 scores. Make sure the other scores are NOT OVERCLOCKED. and i do recommend uping the fan curve just a bit on any card
