Can 8800GT with broken memory (some artifacts) run good as PhyX card with different GPU?
Can 8800GT with broken memory (some artifacts) run good as PhyX card with different GPU?
Game Rig:
Intel Core i7 920 (3.0Ghz) || EVGA X58 Classified (E760)|| 3x2 Gb A-DATA 1333Mhz Triple Channel + 3x2 Gb Patriot 1333Mhz Triple Channel || WD500GB + WD750GB + Hitachi 1TB || PowerColor Ati Radeon 5850 1024MB GDDR5 CrossFireX|| Chieftec 1020W || Acer 24" P243 (1920 x 1200) || Razer Copperhead Blue || Microsoft Reclusa || SteelSeries Seberia 7.1 || CoolerMaster CosmoS
Water cooling:
WC HeatKiller 3.0 || 2x 120mm Koolance || Koolance RP-980BK || Koolance nozzles
Common sense would say no but....trial & error?
Don't know if it's normal for physx or not but I checked memory usage on my 8800GT while running fluidmark and it didn't go up that much so you might be ok
Of course I'm no expert.
System 1 (mine):
CPU: i7 920 D0 stable at 4.0 GHz cooled by Scythe Mugen 2000
GPU: PowerColor HD5850 (950/1250 1.2V)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 Memory: 6GB DDR3 GeiL @ 1528 MHz
System 2 (gf's):
CPU: i7 920 D0 currently at 4.2 GHz cooled by Noctua NH-D14 (needs more tweaking/testing)
GPU: Club3D HD5850 (awaiting OC)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R Memory: 6GB DDR3 Corsair @ 1600 MHz
Lol. Just found a problem with this card. When you run it, you see white dots all over the screen (kinda artifacts). Maybe i can try to fry it with hairdryer (many ppl resurrect it in this way xD)
