I'm about to take the plunge into using my old 970 as a second card in my machine for OSX.
Got the 1070 for gaming and a little VR fun - but all my music apps live on my Hack (Logic FTW!), and I can't wait anymore on Pascal support.
I have a 4K monitor, but IGFX are HD4600 - no DP, so nothing above 1080p there. Was thinking of using a DisplayPort switch and installing my old 970 as second card. I know Windows will be fine (NVIDIA'S drivers will relegate the old card to PhysX duty), but I'm worried about BIOS, DSDT, or Clover tricks I may have to use to get OSX to ignore the slot 1 1070 and only use the slot 2 970.
Before I take the plunge, has anyone done this who would be willing to help me avoid some pitfalls and stress?
Thanks in advance.
