lol its actually quite difficult to find. The original link i had doesn't work anymore and it was direct from the Ageia website.

its definetely working anyway, just did 3dmark vantage and scored 7265.

For some reason it says my cpu is at 3.6, its at 3.2ghz.

Just been playing COH and you can see the difference with the fires, wall/building damage and debris.

Hows performance then?

Any noticeable loss or anything?

 

[Metalface Mark]

70fps on the PhysX UT3 level is very impressive. Just wondering if those are not max FPS instead of average though. What they need though are more PhysX games. Not used my PPU in months as I finished the few decent games ages ago.

Just tried the physx levels after downloading them, i had vsync on and it still ran flawlessly, maybe dropped a little tiny bit where the stuff was floating about, but looked gorgous

Next to no hit for Phsyx then. Wow.

This is how physics rendering should be done. Impressive results there.

Was going to wait for officials but this looks too good to pass up

Overclocked my 9800 GTX a bit.

Damn right. Dunno why they didn't do this sooner

So where does this leave me? I have an Ageia PhysX card and an 8800GTX.
Will it be worth my time getting these new drivers for my 8000gtx?
Or should I just get the latest drivers for the PhysX card from the nvidia site?

Normal:

3DMark Score P8173
CPU Score 5457
Graphics Score 9799


PhysX: Won't let me run it again, need to buy Vantage :/ I might buy it later. For now downloading car wash to check its working.

Excellent, you sir are a legend

 

[Strife212]

I only installed PhysX and not the new drivers so it didn't work, going for the drivers now.

What Vista 64 ones actually work? They are all different filesizes and stuff!

You think you have it bad?

I have the damm physx card built into my laptop

Oh well, it doesn't work on my 1730. Will still have to use my dedicated card in the mean time.

/goes back to ut3

 

[clocka]

now go test with some physx enabled games guys and post your fps with it enabled and disabled. Maybe the gtx 280 may actually be worth it if physx boosts games loads.

 

[HarryPainful]

Im impressed, went from 44xx to 66xx in vantage.

Just need more support of this now.

 

[Metalface Mark]

Carwash wont work for me, could someone else confirm if its working/not working? You cant see any car, just wireframe till you turn physx off.
