I think nVidia's CUDA forum got 177.35 driver for GC other than 200 series.

It's not tak puas.. Just saying that it's supposed to be CPU test but kena taken over by GPU already tongue.gif And CPU test is meant to test the CPU. Anyhow it's good thing that this is happening brows.gif PC without processor next time? All we need is GPU mobo and RAM.

I don't think it is cheating. Said for example, I am running SLi now, if I willing to let one of the cards to run PhysX and another to run rendering, or I purchase another cheap GC to run PhysX, in that case they can't said nVidia is cheating on 3DMark Vantage cause this is what my GCs will do in the real game that support PhysX. nVidia enable GC to use PhysX is just providing another cheaper way for gamers to play their game instead of purchase an expensive PhysX card.

PC without CPU is next challenge to GC manufacturers. icon_rolleyes.gif

smtg strange here,both of us using the same Q6600, frequency also shud be the same.mobo and ram different le.but his GC is a 9800GX2. compare CPU score using PhysX, i get 29.5k like dat,his one 31.2k.means even if u hv a much more powerful GC,it doesn't affect much CPU score using PhysX?

PhysX 8.06.12 is currently only for GeForce 200 series and those GC using G92. For other GC, need to wait a while. nVidia said they will enable PhysX for all GeForce 8 & 9 in this coming July.

I am also wondering whether it is using one GPU to compute or both GPU? If GPU affect the PhysX significantly, I may purchase an additional GeForce 8800GT to run PhysX. cool.gif

does this driver support 8800GT GC?

That Forceware not even support for PhysX. The reason I heard was 177.41 develop even before 177.39. rclxub.gif
