So, has anyone managed to get the nVidia physX working in cellfactor?

i believe that depends exclusively on nVidia efforts, I don't think any enthusiast will be able to do so :)Quote:

Works nicely with UT3 physx maps... more than 2x boost compared to letting cpu doing the job.
With SLI.

I'll try disabling SLI to see how it compares.
EDIT: So i disabled SLI and just like another member that tested dual cards. I have no option to select what GPU does the PhysX's calculations which is not what the first post says :shrug:. I am going to run the test anyways, but i am going to assume the scores are going to be identical to a single card solution. Is there any other problems besides Vantage and UT3 that take advantage of this yet? I don't have UT3 to test.
As was thought scores were no different than a single GPU.

Hopefully other apps will take use of it soon to really try it out.
you should try ut3 lighthouse map, and report your fps, so one can see if a card doing physx + one card rendering, gives much more fps.Quote:

3dmark vantage on this E7200 @ 3.6 GHz, RAM @ DDR2-1000 5-5-5-15, 8800GT @ 720/1800/2100

We don’t have much information on this aside from the screenshot below but, from the looks of this 3DMark Vantage screenshot, the Radeon HD 3850 is capable of PhysX GPU acceleration. Again, we don’t have any info on this other than what you see here but we thought we’d share anyway. Thanks to EBadit for the screenshot.

Photoshop?

Now I want to see the fanATIcs talk sh1t about nVidia.
If this is true, you can see that the control panel is ready for Radeon cards, and means nVidia is doing this free for all.
Talk about dark side now, huh?
NV drivers working with Radeon cards? I smell BS. Those drivers have PhysX ported to CUDA right?
AFAIK, every 177.xx works with PhysX 8.06.12, and those 177.xx bring cuda.dll.Quote:

makes me wish this is real :)
Let's hope so, I want Cellfactor with PhysX badly :D

Techgage tested PhysX. In Vantage 9800 is 4 times more powerful than a PPU but in UT3 frames are lower. Since 8600s have 1/4 of 9800's SP, it should be as powerful as a PPU. I'm think getting another CUDA-enabled card for Physics processing when future drivers support them.
I hope they test a GPU as a separate PhysX card as well.
Hi guys, if i understand right the whole physx thing, than i'll be able to purchase gtx280 etc, and leave my existing 8800gts (g92) in a second PCIex(4x) slot and set it as a dedicated physx card, even though my board doesn't support SLI it wouldn't matter since i'm not gonna use it in sli, is that correct (i have abit ip35 pro)? And if anyone did any tests that show how usefull that would be? what's gonna be the real gain fps wise, comparing to a single gtx280 with no additional card ?

It's in polish, but you should understand graphs ;)
In graphs, was it a 9800 + 9800as a dedicated physx card, or is it 9800+9800 in sli?, i can read russian, not polish :) and what is 9800 +GPU physx, did they just enabled physx in the driver for just a single 9800 card?
Yes, 2nd 9800 GTX+ was used as dedicated physX card. 9800 GTX+ + GPU PhysX is with one card doing PhysX and graphics.
Do you guys think i'd need a second power supply if i buy gtx280? right now i have corsair 620W..I know you could get psu from thermaltake to put into 5,25 bay, are trhere any other alternatives?
