Post Physx Cards??
I have heard ppl using something like a GTX 275 and some 9series card for physx, how does that work. how would i tell my computer to use the weaker card for physx, and the other card for other gfx stuff. i always thought that u needed the same gpu to have 2 gfx cards. i guess thats wrong. plz enlighten me.

::EDIT:: and is this a good idea? what would i want to do this for? do many games use physx?

physx is fairly new. when i bought my last desktop 3 years ago, i attempted to purchase a physx card, but it wouldn't cooperate with the system. at the time there were only like 1 or 2 games that used physx. now physx is rolled into gfx cards (nvidia) and there are more games, but i don't know how many. i know it isn't much, but that's about all i know :)

it's not a vital component when researching games. Not all games use it and if it does take off then it'll be integrated into graphics cards like it is already.

I run a 9 series card with the Physx...it's awesome if you actually play a game that uses it's potential.
