2 DIFFERENT graphics cards?

[majmalnaric]

Is it possbile to use 2 GPUs (gtx 1060 and 1050 Ti) on my 270 msi MoBo?Thanks.

If your mobo has two PCIe x16 slots then yes. But note that you can't combine their power - the only scenario you get any benefit is when you use more monitors that your primary card can use, in any other case the secondary card is just eating power and do nothing (unless you use it for mining).

Well, but 1060 can alone use 3 or more monitors, so no gain here. Streaming puts strain mostly on CPU, so adding second GPU does not help either.
