Default Hybrid SLI

Hey I have some questions about Hybrid SLI. I know it can be used with my motherboards onboard graphics.

What Id like to know:
-Where can I get drivers/ the little taskbar app to enable it in windows? I no longer have the disk for the motherboard and am just using Nvidias latest nForce drivers.
-Can it be used as an FPS booster w/ my 260? Or just power saving?
-Can the 750a SLI be dedicated to Physx alone? Will that free help with performance in games and take a load off the 260?

In your opinion is it even worth messing with?

1.) You can get those specific drivers from Asus's website

2.) No you cannot. Just as a power saving feature

3.) No, again it cannot, and your CPU would have a high load from PhysX's as the IGP could not keep up with the PhysX calculations, and then bog down your system or offload tasks to the CPU.


And no, I don't think it's worth messing with.

I think you should just use it for power saver if you want to and enjoy your time.
