its possible, 8 series cards up have the phys x stuff built in them. it just needs the proper driver to activate it & a game that supports it

have you considered folding when you aren't gaming? the 8800 is a great card for it...
Just download the latest nvidia drivers(after you download driversweeper and run it 3 times) then right-click on the desktop and there should be the "nvidia control panel" option, click it. Now when the window pops up, there should be a tab on the left that says "set sli and physx configuration" under the 3d settings, click on it. There should be settings to turn on/off sli and physx. i hope that helped you.

Hello fellas!!! Thanks to those who helped me yesterday with Physx set-up!!! It works like a charm and now I need a software that can record my gameplay in high res. Does anyone know of one? I Used GamerOSD (by ASUS) but it did somewhat shifty job...
Quick question on this: Does you rmain video card have to be Nvidia for this to work or can you run with both an AMD and a Nvidia?

Before it had to be nVidia only, now if you tweak it right you can have both ATi and nVidia. One thing though, I dont think AGP is supported and can be done in Win7 only (maybe xp).

HOW TO!!!

Cool, thank you for the info. I currently do not have Vista, but I can see myself trying to work this in XP
