So I just bought a MSI HD 7970 Lightning BOOSTED Edition.
I'm upgrading from 2x Nvidia 285 sli.
I read somewhere I could still use physX for my games if I dedicated it to an nvidia card or cpu (but card would be better.)
So I was wondering if it would be a good idea to use a 285 with my 7970 as a dedicated physx card, or if someone could recommend a cheap card that would use less power/space.
Also I plan on getting a 2nd 7970 sometime down the line for crossfire. Would my 1000 watt (cheap make) power supply be able to handle the 3 cards?
