Graphic Cards Sli Physx Query

[naive_harry]

Hi can anyone tell me if my 8800 GTX (directx 10) will work in SLI physx configuration with lets a new gen GT 3xx (directx 11) card.
I looked a lot for it on the internet but could not find anything relevant.

Don't know about GT 3xx ...

But it can work with GTX 260,275,280,295 .....

Somebody help please????

Yes why not, but we dont need GPU like 8800GTX for dedicated physX (which is a power hog in itself), 8600GT is enough.

I mean a directx 10 card and directx 11 card working in SLI PHYSX config???

are you sure cause I am ecstatic...

nvidia customer support has come to rescue,

This what they had to say,

"Hello Harry,

Thank you for contacting NVIDIA Customer Care.

This is Farzana, assisting you with the query you have.

I understand that you would like to know if you can use the DirectX 10 supporting GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card as PhysX processor, while using an upcoming DirectX 11 cards for display.

Presently, that is the plan. PhysX is based on CUDA and not dependent specifically on the DirectX version. Therefore, yes you would be able to use the GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card as PhysX processor, while using an upcoming future NVIDIA cards for display.

Please feel free to contact us for any further clarifications

Best Regards,

Farzana,
