Oh wow. The complete absence of even basic grammar is -quite- amusing.

how do you know they are not using the graphics card? what i mean is are you 100% positive its using the CPU? and no need to be mean your just making a troll out of yourself


Edit
are you sure those games support GeForce Physx? they may only support the original Ageia Physx PPU like Warmonger Edit

Well nivida did disable Physx in ATI systems with new Drivers...
Or if I misread your post, why did you give the chimp a gun in the first place.
I think the question you asked was one of those two I can't tell which.
Oh and by the way, the physx needs to be set to on, or maybe it is cpu physics, the latter more likely.
