Hey guys,

As I'm moving to the Z77 platform soon, should I seriously consider using Lucid Virtu MVP? I've had a read through this article: http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/4...h_asrock_z77_and_intel_ivy_bridge/index1.html

And while it looks impressive they do highlight the real world performance difference is actually negative. What are your thoughts on the technology? Are you using it or is it just another Ageia Physx gimmicky feature?
 
I found it worked great within benchmarks (Heaven & 3DMark), but was unreliable within games. BF3 seemed to do well, but others gave weird textures, stutter or just ran slow.

Leave it off unless BF3 is your only love.
