Hey guy's,
I hope this hasn't been discussed yet.

I was wandering if it is possible to have a GTX660 (with two screens attached) alongst the original ATI 5770.
I understand a GTX660 is compatible with Catalina but has no boot screen if not flashed.
So I thought having a third screen on the ATI 5770 foor the boot screen and the 2 other screens on the GTX for daily work.

Mac Pro 5,1 Mid 2010.
Thanks for your thoughts!

Seems you didn't took a look at the search, no?

Works more or less reliably up to 10.13.6.

Mojave removed support for multiple dissimilar GPUs and trying to use a AMD+NVIDIA (or a supported + an unsupported one from the same manufacturer) GPU will have the weirdest bugs.
