Default worth it to get a seperate physx card?

I have a superclocked gtx 260 core 216, and I was wondering if I got http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121319 card, would I get a noticeable performance increase boost? BTW, I have a crossfire board

(JUST USING IT FOR PHYSX)

I think that it would be better if you get another gtx260 and go sli. Physx is in many games yet.
