Anyone interested in various physx benchmarks?

Was looking for comparisons with single card, vs single card with dedicated physx, but there doesn't seem to be anything recent.

Still in two minds over whether to keep 670 for Physx, but there are a number of titles I was going to be playing soon that use it.

Only one I tried so far is Batman AO, and it helped in the bench, but still unsure of how much it helps in game - there are still parts where having it maxed at 2560x1440 can bring the fps on the 780 down to 35-40.

Other games I may be trying soon are Metro: Last Light, Planetside 2, Hawken, AC4 (Sure there was others, just can't remember right now)

Just not sure if anyone would be interested in comparison between single 780, vs single 780 + dedicated 670.

Would be pointless doing single 670 with dedicated physx as gpu utilisation generally low on the 670 (as far as Batman concerned anyway), though may be good for lols. Maybe.
 
I found using an intel hexcore on the batman benchmark that the fastest solution was to do the PhysX on the CPU. I don't think this would work so well with a quad core though.

IIRC two Titans plus a third dedicated to PhysX was not as quick as two Titans and using the 3930k for PhysX. The fastest solution was two 290Xs and using a 3970X for PhysX lol.

Can you select high physx when only using CPU?
 
Already have the 670, and doesn't look like I'll get much more than £100 out after selling it.

One thing I did notice on the batman bench is the last thing you want to do when running a single GPU is to use PhysX as it knocks about 33% off the fps and that was using a Titan.
