HOW TO: Set up two nvidia clients

[DriedFrogPills]

i have a slight variation on two nvidia clients query. just got a 9600GT for physx with my 5850 render card. what i want to know is how do i go about getting F@H happening on the 9600. Its already running on the 5850

I've never done this, but it is my understanding that you install the drivers for Nvidia, install the F@H client for Nvidia, and make sure that both clients have -local. Only run one client at a time until you are sure that you have both clients aimed at the correct GPU.

-local flag is really not needed. Download the GPU2 clients, make 2 folders (1 for each GPU). Make your shortcuts and distinguish/separate the clients with the -gpu 0 and -gou 1 flag. Also make sure you extend the secondary monitor or both whichever your control panel lets you.

I don't know how well it works to run F@H on two different GPUs like that. I know the clients for whatever reason give trouble when using two different models of the same brand of card. I can only imagine the grief that would happen with trying on nVidia and ATI in the same machine
