Hi there, I'm running a 9800GTX and I've installed the latest beta drivers. How do I find out if PhysX is running. When I run the Ageia PhysX properties program it says I don't have an ageia card. Does Nvidia have a test program?

Please Urufu_Shinjiro!
I have the 175.80 driver.
Can you give us some more specific information how to do that? ( PhysicsX with a 8800GTS)
I would really be very thankful.

Regards.

I think it is transparent to the user on the graphics card end. As far as I know only a few games us it.

Ok, you need one of the latest beta drivers, I'm using 177.41. These will work just fine for the G92 cards and up but need a modded .inf file to install on the G92 8800's. Once you have that driver installed then install the physx software from the nvidia site. You should then be able to open the physx control panel and select GeForce for physx.

The official drivers should be released tommorow (August 12th) with a whole lot of extras.

Keep in mind your FPS will suffer masivly wen running PhysX on a NVidia card, buit if your running a SLI rig you can let one GPU deal with the PhysX and the other with the Graphics...

I think ATI's/AMD's solution is a hell of a lot better both for PhysX and Havok as it desides to run it on or the GPU or CPU or Both depending what would give the optimal performance but with NVidia your forced to use the GPU wich is far from optimal in some cases.

Still cant wait to give it all a try on my 2 8800GT cards
