Vulkan can work with both AMD and Nvidia GPUs simultaneously. The available information indicates support for multiple GPUs, though details are limited. For benchmarks, you may want to consult specialized sources beyond general searches.

Vulkan is the next generation of graphics APIs, offering an alternative to DirectX. Both support multiple GPUs, though their use depends on whether the game was built for them. Multi-GPU setups with AMD CrossFire or Nvidia SlipStream can be achieved using a bridge connector, provided the motherboard is compatible. Employing two distinct GPU brands and models may become feasible in the future, but it is not currently possible.

I understand the terminology, assuming multi-GPU refers to DX12's capability of using completely different GPUs. Will it be feasible for Vulkan to achieve this in the future, even if not yet possible with DX12?

Possibly, Dx12 has that feature you know about, but it requires compatible GPU brands to work smoothly and game developers to back it up. Sli/xfire support is fading away and doesn't really help when consoles are the main concern. I think with the introduction of PCIe 4 and 5, it could enable two cards to work together without a bridge connector and without restrictions.

I wouldn't have imagined a new generation of PCIe would enable mixing and matching of cards. But I'm not expecting this in such areas, so it's not something I would have predicted. Still, I'm not surprised at all.

It could simply be a misunderstanding.
