No, do NOT use an SLI bridge with a card for PhysX... considering that they aren't going to be SLI'd

All you do is put it in the PCI-E slot under your GTX 260, go download the latest drivers/ Physx software.
Then go into the NV control panel and hit enable Physx

yes you can use it for physx, and don't use an SLI bridge.

nope no sli bridge needed for physX.....now if you get another GTX260 then use the bridge with the 260s and use the 9800GT separately for physX


edit^^^ yes you'll need the 6pin to power the 9800GT
