How can I keep an RX 9060 XT and RX 7600 enabled together without driver crashes?
Asked by

I'm using a Windows desktop with an RX 9060 XT, an RX 7600, an MSI B550 GAMING PLUS motherboard, a Ryzen 7 5700X3D, 32GB of DDR4-3200 memory, a 1TB NVMe drive, and an 850W 80+ Gold power supply. Each graphics card works normally by itself, but when I enable both through Device Manager, Windows eventually crashes with a graphics-driver failure. My goal is to run a lightweight agent on the RX 7600 while reserving the RX 9060 XT for gaming. Is there a way to keep both cards active reliably without replacing either GPU?

What are you hoping to accomplish with two GPUs? Multi-GPU setups can be troublesome outside of specific workloads, and using two different cards may not provide much benefit compared with running just one.

MellowCedar42: I want to use the RX 7600’s 8GB of VRAM for a lightweight agent while keeping the RX 9060 XT’s 16GB focused on games. I’d prefer to make this work without buying another graphics card.
