I found an old 9800 and 8600 and i was wondering if either would work as a physx card? (I know nothing about physx....)  :P

 

Thanks!

Not with the newer drivers (since you have an AMD card) but the would make your framerates tank since they will not be able to keep up to the 290's processing abilities.

No because Nvidia just disabled it if you run an AMD primary.
