From the looks of it, Linux will support multi-GPUs. Associate Code: 9E88QK5L7811G3H #4

Dx12 can go ahead and preorder its tombstone now,lol. Hopefully windows 10 can follow it right into the grave since it's draconian, our users are stupid policys helped dig the hole. Without dx12 there's really no good reason to put up with the 10 shenanigans. Edit; Sorry guys, my comment pertained to this headline being wrong and that Vulcan will support multigpu setups in 7,8,10 and linux.

Hopefully, there maybe a work around. That's crappy, IMO. "LDA mode has been available on many versions of Windows, including Windows 7 and 8.x," Khronos Group said. This is obviously good news for proponents of Vulkan who are rocking multiple GPU setups on older versions of Windows. It also might motivate developers to choose Vulkan over DX12. It's worth mentioning that Star Citizen is dropping DirectX support in favor of Vulkan. Cloud Imperium Games developer Ali Brown said the decision was made because Vulkan enables single-API support for older versions of Windows (and Linux) without sacrificing performance and features. http://www.pcgamer.com/vulkan-multi-gpu-support-will-not-be-exclusive-to-windows-10/ MOBO: EVGA x299 Dark, CPU: I9 10900X, RAM: Patriot Viper RGB 3600 32gb, SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 1TB, M2: Samsung 970 EVO+ 1TB, PSU: CoolerMaster M2 1500, CPU HSF: EVGA 240 CLC HSF~ P/P EK Furious Vardar, G-CARD:EVGA RTX3090 FTW3 Ultra Gaming w/Hybrid kit and Noctua IPPC 3000 P/P, CASE: LIAN-LI PC-V2010B w/ Window mod, OS: Windows 10 Pro 64bit, MON: Alienware AW3821DW New EVGA product?
