GPU-Z 0.7.9 Detects Cuda not PhysX on GTX 970

Shou Miko · Oct 23, 2014

I don't know if it's a bug or something but this version detected PhysX fine on my GTX 780 but with 970 it don't do anymore, i even install the new driver today version 344.48 from geforce.co.uk and PhysX was the same version as 344.11

normally i don't have a problem not even on my laptop with Intel HD Graphics and a Nvidia GTX 860M.

I'm having the same problem with my GTX770M , not showing PhysX either, yet it is installed.

W1zzard · Oct 23, 2014

Is PhysX actually working? GPU-Z is behaving like a PhysX app, and tries to create a hardware context.

Could this be an issue with Nvidia disabling PhysX because you have a display connected to another GPU, possibly the integrated graphics?

just updated to version 0.8.0 and PhysX is checked no problem, so dunno if the full support for GTX 970/980 has made a difference:

The integrated graphics on my laptop(Asus G750JX) are disabled by default. Optimus is disabled on my laptop.

PhysX gets detcted fine on my re-branded Clevo laptop, but some parts are missong my GTX 860M maybe bcs it's not active atm i dunno:

This may be a silly question, but I have to ask.

Have any of you bothered uninstalling and then manually reinstalling the PhysX by itself? (followed by a restart then reload GPU-Z)

Yes I did but I got some kind of error, I don't remember what it said.
I don't have games that use PhysX, so it's not that a big problem for me.
Maybe if I install a new driver it will display PhysX again in gpu-z

Maybe run a driversweep program, restart and run a clean installation of the drivers. I think I have 3 games that use PhysX, but I don't play them either!

Just because this "problem" will be reported again by someone else in the future i bet.. and because i got disgusted seen every ignorant throwing the "install latest drivers" gum-advice for almost every problem, i will recommend somethin simple that might be escaping from users who deal with it.

I have noticed that some users, modify nvcp settings manually, that means that some of them decide also to change the processor used for physx. So....in short, if someone chooses his CPU as physx processor and launch Gpu-z, he will see it unchecked, but if he leaves it on Auto or set his GPU as processor and launch Gpu-z, then by 95% physx field must be checked.

I do not think there is some relative bug here.

Somethin similar could occur for cuda indicator, if one disable it for some specific program.
