Default 2x SLi GTX275 & GT260

I got 2 old PCs & going for a new i7 with Asus Rampage II Extreme. I came to know that 9800 can be use as a 3rd card. This works for GTX260?

Thinking of wanna make full use of what I got:

Slot 1 & 2 (16x) with SLi connector
2x SLi GTX 275

Slot 3 (8x) no connector
1x GTX260

I need to install Physis driver right?

All you need to do is go into your Control Panel and select your GTX 260 as a PhysX card.

So you have GTX275's in SLI right. You have a spare 9800 and a spare GTX260?

I understand that you want to use one of your spare cards as a physX card. Simply place it in your 3rd slot and install regular Nvidia drivers then head over to the Nvidia control panel and select dedicated physX card. In my opinion though, I would sell the GTX260 as this is major overkill as a physX card. Even the 9800 is, but out of the two, use the 9800 and sell the GTX260 for extra cash.
