So basically it's not worth using, you have to use a beta OS and the gains are only seen in one bench. That is what i seem to be reading....
I still have an open mind. I gonna try it with 2 3870x2's and a 280...

that should be interesting, but i got to find 7.
or can i use it in vista, was that early problem fixed?

the whole reason to use 7 is to get ati+nvidia drivers to load at the same time. it WILL NEVER work in vista.

Oh and do you have a lower power NvidiaGPU like 9600 9500, i would like to see results for that, so that i may consider the purchase

point proven. it does work. it's not that hard either.


EDIT: Ok I missunderstud your Post at first reading. :) I thought it doesn't work. >>> Your PhysX works allready! You have 31000CPU Points, but Futuremark have decided to let not go this points in to the overall score, because PhysX is cheating the CPU Score.
For examble, I have only 8400 points with an AMD Quadcore 9950 Prozessor. (@2,6Ghz)
Look at CPU Test 2 and CPU Score.

Nice thread.... i might be a bit too late, but i have one question....
Would it work if you had, as an example, HD4850 for video, and 8600GT for PhysX, would you actually gain anything? Does it actually pay off to do that kind of thing?

it does yes. your physx score would go up a good bit. you may see better performance in physx games as well. i know my setup is SICK for physx games. its like fluid natural motion but thats expected with $1800 in GPUs i guess. ;)

And which games actually support physx? I bet there is few, but do you know any? Maybe GTA 4?
I sure know GTA IV would gain some performance if we got a dedicated PhysX thingy....

K, thought i'd post in the appropriate thread. I'm going to give this a try with my old 8500GT once i get Windows 7 (soon) anyone know if there's a x64 editing doing it's rounds? (or if windows 7 supports over 4gb of ram)
Seen how to do it, it should work if i plug my TV into me 8500GT and then my LCD into MY 4850. Then pull the TV out and keep the 8500 as a dedicated PhysX card, right?

If this works and becomes more well-known it might keep physX alive. I'm sure there's a whole heap of peeps with old Nvidia cards just lying around collecting dust.

Got 6956, But im guessing it doens't support 4gb ram? so performance wise i'd be better holding off till a 64bit build comes along, as i don't use too play many physx games (only UT3 really).
Seems like it might me time for a second HD and to play around with dual boot.

4gb does not help performance unless you are running a monster video card or 2 or 3 or 4.
