@Boomeraangkid, zer0hour,
to make it work on geforce 8800gt, use 177.39 driver & physx 8.06


Added on August 12, 2008, 11:03 ambtw, do you guys think a 8600gt is powerful enough to run physx? thinking of pairing it up with my 8800gt brows.gif

depends on budget lo..laugh.gif what other cards lower than 9600gt can render physx? it can also run sli+physx mode rite? meaning if i have a 8800gt and 9600gt, both can render graphics and physx together?

btw, anyone downloaded the physx pack already?

i think it should be ok. 9600gso is not very far behind 9600gt, which is also not very far behind 9800gt in terms of performance.

the first batch of 9800gt is said to be a rebadged version of 8800gt. the 2nd batch is the new 55nm version, with support for hybrid power and hybrid sli. not sure whether the first batch has this features..

im thinking of getting a cheap RM200 8 or 9 series gc to run it as a physx card but want to know has anyone here done it using pcie x1 slot??
*
gc with pcie x1 slot very rare wor..i've seen one, the only one i saw until now...geforce 7300gt by galaxy. 8 and 9 series not sure whether have or not. if rm200 get 8600gt or 9500gt. but dun think it's powerful enough..
