Nvidia GTX280/260 and 9800GTX/+ 177.39 Beta Driver with PhysX-Support

No Crysis no care amiright?

Anyway, seriously now, these drivers will allow Nvidia to destroy ATI in benches, not really gameplay. Gameplay quality will be better on Nvidia no doubt, but I still haven't seen how it will impact performance. Don't see why everyone's going ape.

Easy up man, we are just talking about VANTAGE numbers.

No one said so far this brings far more performance to games where Physx is used.

In my POV, you have 2 ways:

1- framerate decreases, because GPU is loaded with Pysx tasks;

2- framerate increases because GPU doesn't depend on CPU physics calculations

Then, even if your framerate lowers, but the game is still playable and much more enjoyable due to Physx, it's a win-win deal.



Edit: about Crysis, i'll try this sys_physics_cpu=0 and see if it changes anything at all

EDIT:2 no differences at all, at least that i could have noticed naked eye...
