dedicated physx GPU questions

[randy hutajulu]

After reading so many post about dedicated physx, i'm a bit interested to do that. Does it give me a good performance improvement?

Right now i'm using a GTX 780 which is PCIe 3 based, is it going to work if i use GTX 600 series which is PCIe 2 based as my physx processor?

What GTX 600 series card that will give me a good price per performance as physx card?

What games that will give me advantage from it?

a 780 is already pretty powerful

you probably wouldn't see much diff

In games like borderlands he will see a MASSIVE difference. Even I tank on BL2 with everything cranked sometimes 20fps or lower

Will I don't know about the performance gain but the bandwidth is more than enough, physx doesn't need that much of bandwidth so you will be fine even if it's PCIe 1.0 x8,x16.

Don't bother. the only 6 series card faster than the inc. physx on the 780ti is going to be a 680 or high OC 670. honestly, it's not worth the cash.

You already have a 780 so it's not necessary not to mention that there aren't enough games to justify buying a card just for that. Though if you were to do such a thing you would need to buy an x50 or x60 sku card in order to avoid slowing down your primary card. If you were to get something like a GT 630 and pair it with your 780 you would actually lose performance.

yea.. that's why i make this post sir. i need to know about that. maybe u'll be interested too just like me

does BL2 need so many Physx? hhmmm.. this is an interesting game to experiment with.

hmm... so using a too slow card will give u a performance decrease. so, i think go with GTX 600 series will be a good option here. but the problem here is, will it bottleneck if we use a different PCIe configuration since GTX 600 series are still PCIe 2

The PCIe is never the bottlencek like ever unless it;s sceintifc computin and similar shit.

so, it will be fine if i buy a GTX 660 or 670 to work with my GTX 780 for a dedicated physx card?

so, if i buy a GTX 660 or 660 Ti for my Physx card. that will make me slower?
