morning all.
first of all, yes i know all about how a dedicated physx card is useless in most games, but the thing is i have an nvidia GT 9500 card just colecting dust, i know it's not much of a card, but will it to the job for a game like Batman - Arkham City.
Also i OCd the card from stock 700 Mhz to 770 Mhz, max stable OCd without voltage twicking.
 
A PhysX card is like a CPU, if your PhysX card is significantly weaker than your primary GPU you will bottleneck your GPU thus having performance loss.
 
from what i've seen / learned, if you're going dedicated physx, it needs to be a comparable card to the main gpu otherwise you're opening a whole word of pain for yourself
 
What's the card you'll be augmenting it with? Unless it's of a comparable generation etc. it really doesn't seem to be worth it.
 
So if I were to use a 460 with a pair of 670's, the 460 would hold the other cards back in physx enabled games?
 
Yes the 460 probably would have negligable benefit at best, not worth the extra electricity bill. Aside from that point what are you playing that a pair of 670s cant max anyway?
