Does any one know how to use a graphics card as a Physx Card does it have to be the same as your primary video card?


No, it can be any nvidia card you want. However, you can't use Physx without a hack if your primary card is ATI.

Oh I see but is it going to be the same setup like an SLI/ Crossfire would do?And what if you your Physx card to be an ATI card is it even possible.Thanks by the way for enlighting me on this subject.  Posted Image


Yeah pretty much. And no, ATI cards do not support PhysX in any way shape or form.

So you need to connect the power connectors but you don't need to connect the bridge right?And how about the drivers do you need two drivers for it to work right if you have two different cards right?Thanks again.

Wow it's 2PM already. I just couldn't stop playing Mass Effect 2. I did at least like 6 missions, including a main story one.


I wish I could replay that game soon, but I made it a point to get 100% on ME1 with a new character that I actually like so I can import, and it's taking me forever to get through :(

Yep, just need the power connectors, not the bridge. And you don't need two drivers.

@ice, you seem to be the resident expert here, and I'm a complete n00b:  Is there any way for me to run a game like DA:O or Oblivion across multiple monitors (2 are identical Dell 1680x1050s, currently my "side" monitors, and my center is a Samsung 1920x1200) off a notebook computer that is running the center monitor off a GeForce 280M and a ViDock ATI HD 4670 for the 2 side monitors?  I don't mind adjusting the center monitor resolution to match the side monitors.

I plan on doing the same thing. :-) I have about 2 more weapons achievements to do, I think. And I need to finish all the 75% squad member playthroughs too.

Just checking back today after I stopped checking the auctions a few days ago. I see nothing has changed and actually worsened. This whole thing was crap and I didn't even have enough points to participate. A shame, this could have actually been fun for a majority of the people. I barely had over 6100 points so I was basically given the finger. Thanks Bioware for making this an exciting "fan loyalty" event.


The Venting thread is here


honestly, after looking in the thread at your link and a few others, I don't know which is worse...the people that whine incessantly at being left out in the cold, or the people so quick to defend Bioware til death do they part.

It's one thing to speak your mind I guess and recognise it for what it really is....

damn I must be moving past the wise ass tired stage straight into the cranky annoyed at loud noises and bright lights stage.




I moved on to apathetic, but I know when to hold my tongue


hmm? was referring to the thread in your link, one of many already


yes, I'm sure there will be more.  Just no point in spreading the rage and frustration to lots of little thread that will get locked down.  :pinched:


ok, totally confused, gonna take another catnap now


lol, I was referring to dropdown36 :lol:  and other people upset about the auction.  There's no point going around every thread where it's easy for bioware to ignore.

I like. I've been laughing at myself for tiring myself out with this auction instead of enjoying Mass Effect 2, especially knowing that I don't have enough points to even make a bid. :D Still thought I had a chance as of yesterday afternoon, though.

Lol 12k for comics

The Art Book version included appears to have been a limited edition that's selling for around $100 on the secondary market. So I figure it's just as good as winning a lithograph pack or video card... (or making back the majority of the moneys I've spent on Bioware stuff in the past year :blink:).

There's just an extra step involved :pinched:

I would have rather taken a Mass Effect shirt pack - but I think they're all gone and I wouldn't be surprised if it goes for 13k anyway if there's one left.

Anyway, good luck to everyone in the last few hours of the auction. I'm getting some sleep.

(the below anime girl dance does not, for once, go to my referall link - it goes to the full version of the song/dance. It will blind you with its Japaneseness)

You know the artbook is nothing special right? I got it with the LE of the ME1 strategy guide when ME1 came out.

You need something like the Matrox Triple Head 2 Go
http://www.matrox.co...n/products/gxm/
Keep in mind that you will only be able to use the GTX 280M.

Gotcha, that is what the ViDock is supposed to do, but the card/case currently support only 2 externals, with the 280M supporting the center one.  I guess I may end up having to get a desktop to play on.  :crying:

I just thought it would look nice to be able to see across all 3 monitors instead of just my "default" one, and I recall seeing a video of someone playing across 3 monitors in a panorama view.
