My MB will take 2 GPUs. Currently I have 1 NVidia GTX 1050Ti. Can I also add an NVidia GTX 650 Ti?

Will this work?

yes but you need a cc_config.xml that tells the boinc to use both GPUs

<cc_config>
<options>
<use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus>
</options>
</cc_config>

This goes into the BOINC folder itself and not the Seti@home folder.....

Next question...Do you know where to find the BOINC folder, do you know how to make an XML file??

I believe I know how to do this.

I will give it a try.
