Just some background... so you have my level of knowledge. I have build about 10 of these and worked through almost every problem by reading here. So deep talk is ok.

Ok ok... I know this might be a dumb idea... but a dumb question is the one unasked.
First thing... Does anyone use DAZ studio on a 5,1? Have you figured out a reliable way for GPU rendering
I have a Dual boot machine. Catalina and Win 10 on separate drives and Windows is done the Rufus way and Catalina is open core 5.9. All is happy.
Is there any way to use both an AMD 5700XT when I boot to Catalina and then have an RTX 2080 for when I boot to Windows? I really hope this works as I do not want to have to build a dedicated machine for Daz Studio.
AMD is my bread and butter but one of my 3d programs I start projects with only will use Nvidia. I have tried 90 ways to Sunday to figure out a workaround and its a no go. This has been an issue for weeks and I am grasping at straws before building a dedicated rig. I do not want to use anything but my badass cMPs LOL.

Yes, I have the power. I have the mods necessary to handle the power... I tend to overkill things.

I do have a backup rig with just one proc set up the same way, but it won't handle the RTX on High Sierra. But Could I run that JUST as a windows machine? With the RTX cards un in windows on a 5,1???

Man these card wars are pissing me off.

Machine,
Catalina
Flashed Dual Proc 4,1 with X5690s
New PowerColor 5700XT (LOVE IT)
NVME boot
SSD Working drives
96 gigs of ram (on purpose)
Pixlas Mod
3.1 USB card

Again, thanks for any input.
