No one cared when the Physx cards were out, don't see why everyone gets so excited about getting drivers with the facility working. The slagging that Pottsey (I think!) used to get for supporting Physx is quite comical now.
 
Why is that ?, its free on our already purchased for another reason GPU's.

Added to the fact it will now get better supported than before, feel free to not enable it on your GPU though. :p

Great, off ignore now then:( I was only saying that I fail to see why it's such a big issue. Sorry to have an opinion.
 
Who cares about PhysX support anyway? No one gave a damn when it was only the Aegia card supporting it. I have a G92 GTS and don't care personally :)

Agreed with Dyson. :D

I didn't give a damn when it was just the Aegia card because it was like £350 on top of an already very expnsive GPU purchase just to give a slightly better experience in a couple of games that were actually optimized for it.

Now that its getting included with basically all newer GPU's it's a different story, more and more games code will be written to utilize it and I'm sure we'll start to see more patches like the UT3 PhysX pack which will basically be unplayable without it.
To give an idea, a 9800GTX+ system on UT3's new HeatRay level got 21FPS without GPU PhysX enabled and 55 with it, thats a pretty big jump....
 
I'm having a right game getting my aging 6800GT to work properly under Vista 64 - movies are terrible in media player and the clip screenshot app doesn't work on the current nVidia release for Vista 64. If I uninstall and just use the version Vista gives me movies and clip work OK. Will thes ebe any better, or does anyone have any sugestions (and yes - a 4870 is on the horizon!).
