So I finally got around to getting a new build and putting it together and I have two questions currently.
Question 1
I got a 780 in the top PCIe 3.0 16x slot (nearest the CPU) and I used that to install Windows before later adding in my second 660 I had from a previous machine in the slot below it. Now my problem is, I bought the GTX 780 to straight fold 24/7 and was planning on using the 660 for gaming (since it's more than what I need ATM) until I can get a cheaper GTX 780 down the road.
The problem is Windows 7 only recognizes my top slot (GTX 780) as the main display card. I thought I could just plug it into the 660 and get it to recognize no problem, but when I do that it sees it like a dual screen. Nothing but a blank background where I can't do anything with it. I only have one screen. Tell me there has to be an easier way to switch the main GPU monitor between slots without having to take the cards out manually. I tried playing around with some settings and ended up turning off my GTX 780 monitor display and my 660 would only show the blank desktop (thinking it's dual screen when I switch the same monitor adapter to the second card) and I thankfully was able to do a system restore to get recover.
I'm nervous to touch anything unless someone knows exactly how to fix this because I'd prefer to not keep stopping the GTX 780 every time I want to game since it's the most producing card.
Anyone?
Question 2
My second problem is during the reinstall of all my software and going through hardware problems I was impatient and decided to load F@H before it was stable. Both GPU's are on the "beta" flag, but the problem with this new build is it isn't showing the correct PPD numbers after 12 hours. The points are registering no problem, but I'm not seeing the correct real-time stats.
Besides a fresh install of F@H and the "beta" tag on each I'm confused as to what could be causing it to not show the real PPD estimates.
Thanks in advance for any help
