Looks great and all, but still cant sufficiently power 3 monitors on an NVIDIA card, you'd need 2 cards to do that well. I've owned both AMD and NVIDIA, so don't start arguements. AMD Eyefinity is great with supporting multi-monitor displays, and is cheaper, but NVIDIA has the better drivers. All in all they both have pros and cons
Physx has been a dying technology since day one and only exists to segregate the PC market and force people too buy Nvidia, It's called stacking the cards in your favor. From a business stand point it was wise.
But because Nintendo Sony and MS all have plan to use AMD chips in their future consoles that leads me to believe developer support will drop and pretty much not exist. As a gamer this makes me happy because there will finally be better alternatives.
@captaincough PhysX has been a PC exclusive feature since day one, and the number of game that use PhysX has never stopped growing. No body force u to want PhysX. But if anything forces u to buy Nvidia, its AMD, because they wouldnt provide an alternative choice, but they sell cards a little cheaper, from a business stand point it was wise, to real gamers, it's lame. And lol, what will be used in consoles have nothing to do with PhysX, because its for PC to make PC games better.
@growingup2204 Actually, the playstation 3 has PhysX buddy. Not that I'm a console fan. I'm a hardcore EVGA enthusiast. I just wanted to point that you were wrong about PhysX being only on PC
@ThatZaliaSGuy No, i'm right. In a few titles, yes PS3 has it because it uses nvidia gpu. But it doesn't always have it whenever the PC version has it. U dont have the exclusive PhysX effects of most PhysX games on Ps3.
DX11 has major problems in PC even until now. The developers of Batman AC is still in the work to fix DX11 problem.
IF you are NOT experiencing ANY troubles, that means your DX11 settings aren't turned on. For example, if you're playing on windows XP or vista, regardless your vidcards are DX11 ready and turning on DX11 settings, the game still will NOT run on DX11.
DX11 enabled it works fine on my machine (i7 980X, HD 5870), and also on a friends PC (i7 980X, GTX 560 Ti).
Both running at 1080p, no noticable performance problems.
But I have read the game forums where they have said it's a major problem, what a joke when they delayed the game to 'improve' it for the PC port. More like just force impatient owners of PC's and consoles to buy it on console instead.
Indeed, I'm playing on a HD 5870, and the game looks far better than the non-Physx examples in the vid.
It's just bullshit from Nvidia to make you buy their cards.
I actually prefer the game without Physx (I have an original Ageia Physx PPU, so I have tried it), all that clutter and shit flying around just annoys me so I turned it off.
@camhottylover I agree dude. I have a 460 gtx and an older quad and I run just about every game at default high or ultra minus physx. Smoke and fluttering animations aren't enough for me to lose 10 frames and have to deal with stutter. Even my buddies with 6870s seem to have stutter and problems with the stuff I do.
i bet all the people that are like "I would actually prefer the version WITHOUT, other one seems like a lot of mess and unimportant effects that are disrupting my focus."
and crying about phsyx dont have the power to run it. sucks for you because its awesome. its not game changing but it is beautiful.
People who argue about which console or if PC is better are just haters.
Here's the trick: Have them ALL. Don't be a broke ass waiting for your mommy to get it for your for Christmas, then hate on everyone else for having a different or better system.
Grow a pair. You fan boys are such a bunch of fucking losers, jerking off looking at your console/PCs.
Lmao, while saying PhysX is crap, AMD users are trying to install hacked drivers to have PhysX, they also have to buy a low end nvidia cards for it. And yeah, game looks great with or without PhysX, then why isnt everyone happy already, why do u still want openCL :))
@TheDannyoffthewall not really, if you look a little more closely at the video it basically adds more loose object, for example, it make the curtains fly, more sparks, smoke effect,add loose papers,ect.
@m4ht1sonni I just got a 560 TI Hawk and it was DOA. So I had to RMA. Then I was thinking, "wouldn't it be great if I got another and waited on the RMA to complete so I would have 2 of them?"
So I went to purchase another and they were out of stock. Now I'm not sure what what I will end up with until newegg gives me my options.
@Postulio71 DOA and RMA?? sry don't know what that means, but gtx560 ti SLI is awesome, i mean in moh 2011 Multiplayer i get 150 fps average max settings 32x AA
@Postulio71 You should be able to just buy a regular 560ti and sli it with your "special edition" as long as the HARDware is the same, and they run at the same MHZ, Memory, etc... you'll be fine.
Doesn't matter about the casing. You could wait and be safe...but a regular one should be fine as well.
I'd love to play that with my GTX, But even on my GTX590 it over heats (even with the newest drivers.) and lags like crap, and that's with a AMD Black Edition CPU, 6 core, 8gb of ram, and everything set on max I even turn off 16x hq AA, and physx and it still lags.

@MrLammz Woah, I am surprised you finally figured something out. Apparently you are a little on the slow side for taking this long to understand a 3 words comment. I am surprised you claim to see so many subtle spoilers in the videos.
AMD users you can get a dedicated Geforce card for PhysX too. I have a GT220 working with my 5870 for Arkham Asylum. Not exactly easy to get working, but hey its worth mentioning.
@JML1987 Hi after seeing comparison, I am not sad I am ATI user. Seems taht little more annoying crap is on the screen. Someone might like it, but not me. Still, it is great to use both cards, I have read some faq for it time ago.
@WakizashiSabre these 1 min videos of evga have never showed enough of what PhysX has to offer through the whole game. For example, u saw a papers flying around in evga's Batman asylum video, in the game u also see a storm of massive amount of rocks and stuff being destructible. U need to play the game yourself to see and feel it, it usually feels like a whole normal game for people who experience it themselves. Cant blame u if this video is meh for u.
I'm must admit that a I'm a AMD fan but this look pretty cool...but I think that this kind of an exaggeration because I don't think that game is gonna look that bad (having a high end Radeon HD 5000 or 6000 series) as the other part with no PhysX.
This is really dumb. I have an ATI card and I don't give a flying fuck about flying papers and fog. Its rather obnoxious that I have to wait an additional month for features I will not use. Enjoy your dynamic paper and smoke fanboys I'll be off doing things like...I don't know... getting laid. And when the game comes out, I'll be *gulp* playing it instead of fucking with graphical settings and staring at textures.
@cwagmire21 u silly, developers add these effect into the PC version because Nvidia paid them to. Without that, they would have just simply ported the console version to PC and add nothing. Want OpenCL so that AMD cards could have these effects too ? Then you're at the wrong page, go to AMD, tell them to do what nvidia has been doing: pushing developers to make PC version different from console, instead of just being cheap so that they can sell cards with a low price. Extra things costs extra.
"Just use OpenCL" is not that easy. If there were an existing OpenCL alternative, MANY games would use it. But there isn't. Havok and Bullet have not moved to GPU computation, and PhysX would have to be rewritten for OpenCL, which is a big task.
OpenCL PhysX won't happen until Nvidia's competitors come up with something similar. As long as the competing engines are CPU based, Nvidia can lean back because it has no competition.
@cwagmire21 OpenCL, aka Open Computing Language, is a language for running computational task, like C++ or Java.
PhysX is a program, written in C code, that runs physics calculations. nVidia bothered writing a compiler allowing their video cards to run C code, aka CUDA. AMD never did bother and expects everyone else to develop for them.
It definitely looks better, but it doesn't change the core gaming experience, so I don't care. I'll have just as much fun playing it as someone with an Nvidia card would; I've got an HD 5870.
I love how defensive and competitive nvidia users are regarding the whole gimmicky feature that is physX.
It's okay thanks, you can keep a few extra particles. In the meantime, I'll carry on buying AMD cards which aren't overpriced and actually perform better than their nvidia counterparts.
i allways buy nvidia, but buy AMD cpus! thats the only thing amd gets right!!! and the reason why is becasue i have had really bad probs out of ati!!! like blue screen that result in "thead stuck in device driver"
@ericnjost You Battlefield fanboys are annoying. Then you complain about CoD fanboys, when in reality you're as bad as them, or worse even. Go play Generic Modern Military Shooter 3 and shut the fuck up.
@vga1232 i have an AMD 6970, you can still use a dedicated Nvidia card. :) just got to use the 1.04ff Mod and it works with the latest Nvidia Drivers & PhysX software.
@vga1232 no, not really. software physx SHOULD be capable of anything hardware physx can, but when nvidia butchers the SDK like they have many times before, THAT is the only time when nvidia cards have an advantage, if game developers would just use OpenCL, DirectCompute, OR JUST DX11, we could all be happy.
@BIGDADDYF50 i am not absolutely sure, but if this game is running on the same engine as arkham asylum, it will easily tun it. if not, maybe high physx will slow it down, but i think it will still be able to max it out.
my next system is going to be a 2560x1600 gaming system, and for what nvidia offers I much rather stick with my 6990, if only developers didnt downgrade their games so much in order to force you to buy a specific product, I mean just look at the comparisons, oh well atleast there wont be any antialiasing needed on my end
@MrSuckmyballs32 I think it's more of the fact that AMD driver makers aren't bothered making the best drivers they can which is exactly the reason why Nvidia cards cost more, but they have much better drivers that won't crash. If AMD made their drivers as good as Nvidia on the graphics cards, AMD cards would also have something similar to PhysX and be able to do what Nvidia cards are able to. Reason I went Nvidia instead of AMD on my current build, better drivers = no crash.
@sbrideau2000 actually its more down to developers to optimize their games to the architectures and yea drivers do play a part, but I would not be so quick to point my finger at AMD's driver support as they have reacently improoved their drivers and for the most part its been good news and smooth sailing (in some cases better than the competition). however you are right that Nvidia does have beter drivers at the time of release and I've got the latest drivers installed so no wonder they are good
@MrSuckmyballs32 I like you :P. I'll give a shot at reading more news about AMD's driver support while I think about what I want as new graphics card, my build is getting old so I don't necessarily have the best graphics haha.
@sbrideau2000 yea and in the long run that will increase Nvidia's sales and actually push their physx tech more efficiently I mean having to run phisics and particle calculations as well as rendering on the same gpu is preety demanding on the card, (the cpu can handle phisics calculations quite well)
but yea AMD has really sharpen up their driver support and honestly I really do recomend them besides crossfire scales really good and seems to be more compatible than some SLI setups i've seen
@sbrideau2000 also the 6990 beats the 590 when you go onto 2560x1600, otherwise I would have to buy 2 580's and for me that seems like a way overpriced setup.
besides AMD drivers are a bit buggy at launch but as seen with the 6900 series they mature really well.
all I want from Nvidia is for them to make dedicated physx cards that work with both AMD and Nvidia like it was in the old days.
@LLOYD19851012 There are people out there who know how to hack drivers... There's actual hacked drivers out there that allow SLI on Crossfire motherboards, and Crossfire on SLI motherboards.
Motherboards with this chip allow ANY graphics cards to be used together, AMD or Nvidia. It doesn't work very well yet, but I do hope they improve it and make it perfect.
@sbrideau2000 I dunno, seems like it MIGHT be possible to run an nvidia graphics card as a dedicated physx gpu, alongside an amd graphics card... Probably the drivers wouldn't allow it, tho.
I wonder if anyone's ever tried? Even a cheap $20 nvidia graphics card could be dedicated to physx, and it will do it just fine.
@sbrideau2000 well said, Nvidia aquired physx and incorporated that technology to their gpu's however in the past you were able to use an nvidia graphics card for physx processing and an ATI card for rendering, but Nvidia then dropped support for that and forced people to buy Nvidia cards (the gtx 580 is a monster really allmost two 560's) but there is a way you can download "hacked" driers to allow for that nowadays, however its a bit hummm shall we say framed upon by Nvidia, lol no wonder why
@foist101 The reason I said that is most motherboards (less and less now thought) have only 1 pci-e slot and a couple pci slots , I don't why Nvidia doesn't make a decent PCI PhysXs card.
@foist101 You are Running High end then ,most people don't , I went cheap on my i7 2600 with a 70$ Asus motherboard that only has 1 pci-e motherboard.
@BarackMcBush the PCI ageia Physx Processing Unit was a great one. but is not supported after the 8.09.04 physx software (After 8.09.04, 8.09.04 still supports it).
i have a 6850 can i add say a 9600 gso for phyx i dont have a sli crossfire mobo just asking

I'm must admit that a I'm a AMD fan but this look pretty cool...but I think that this kind of an exaggeration because I don't think that game is gonna look that bad (having a high end Radeon HD 5000 or 6000 series) as the other part with no PhysX.

This is really dumb. I have an ATI card and I don't give a flying fuck about flying papers and fog. Its rather obnoxious that I have to wait an additional month for features I will not use. Enjoy your dynamic paper and smoke fanboys I'll be off doing things like...I don't know... getting laid. And when the game comes out, I'll be *gulp* playing it instead of fucking with graphical settings and staring at textures.

@cwagmire21 u silly, developers add these effect into the PC version because Nvidia paid them to. Without that, they would have just simply ported the console version to PC and add nothing. Want OpenCL so that AMD cards could have these effects too ? Then you're at the wrong page, go to AMD, tell them to do what nvidia has been doing: pushing developers to make PC version different from console, instead of just being cheap so that they can sell cards with a low price. Extra things costs extra.

@cwagmire21
"Just use OpenCL" is not that easy. If there were an existing OpenCL alternative, MANY games would use it. But there isn't. Havok and Bullet have not moved to GPU computation, and PhysX would have to be rewritten for OpenCL, which is a big task.
OpenCL PhysX won't happen until Nvidia's competitors come up with something similar. As long as the competing engines are CPU based, Nvidia can lean back because it has no competition.

@cwagmire21 OpenCL, aka Open Computing Language, is a language for running computational task, like C++ or Java.
PhysX is a program, written in C code, that runs physics calculations. nVidia bothered writing a compiler allowing their video cards to run C code, aka CUDA. AMD never did bother and expects everyone else to develop for them.

@vga1232 no, not really. software physx SHOULD be capable of anything hardware physx can, but when nvidia butchers the SDK like they have many times before, THAT is the only time when nvidia cards have an advantage, if game developers would just use OpenCL, DirectCompute, OR JUST DX11, we could all be happy.

MrSuckmyballs32 4 months ago
@MrSuckmyballs32 I think it's more of the fact that AMD driver makers aren't bothered making the best drivers they can which is exactly the reason why Nvidia cards cost more, but they have much better drivers that won't crash. If AMD made their drivers as good as Nvidia on the graphics cards, AMD cards would also have something similar to PhysX and be able to do what Nvidia cards are able to. Reason I went Nvidia instead of AMD on my current build, better drivers = no crash.
sbrideau2000 4 months ago
@sbrideau2000 actually its more down to developers to optimize their games to the architectures and yea drivers do play a part, but I would not be so quick to point my finger at AMD's driver support as they have reacently improoved their drivers and for the most part its been good news and smooth sailing (in some cases better than the competition). however you are right that Nvidia does have beter drivers at the time of release and I've got the latest drivers installed so no wonder they are good
MrSuckmyballs32 4 months ago
@MrSuckmyballs32 I like you :P. I'll give a shot at reading more news about AMD's driver support while I think about what I want as new graphics card, my build is getting old so I don't necessarily have the best graphics haha.
sbrideau2000 4 months ago
@sbrideau2000 yea and in the long run that will increase Nvidia's sales and actually push their physx tech more efficiently I mean having to run phisics and particle calculations as well as rendering on the same gpu is preety demanding on the card, (the cpu can handle phisics calculations quite well)
but yea AMD has really sharpen up their driver support and honestly I really do recomend them besides crossfire scales really good and seems to be more compatible than some SLI setups i've seen
MrSuckmyballs32 4 months ago
@sbrideau2000 also the 6990 beats the 590 when you go onto 2560x1600, otherwise I would have to buy 2 580's and for me that seems like a way overpriced setup.
besides AMD drivers are a bit buggy at launch but as seen with the 6900 series they mature really well.
all I want from Nvidia is for them to make dedicated physx cards that work with both AMD and Nvidia like it was in the old days.

@sbrideau2000 I dunno, seems like it MIGHT be possible to run an nvidia graphics card as a dedicated physx gpu, alongside an amd graphics card... Probably the drivers wouldn't allow it, tho.
I wonder if anyone's ever tried? Even a cheap $20 nvidia graphics card could be dedicated to physx, and it will do it just fine.
RalphCQ 4 months ago
@sbrideau2000 well said, Nvidia aquired physx and incorporated that technology to their gpu's however in the past you were able to use an nvidia graphics card for physx processing and an ATI card for rendering, but Nvidia then dropped support for that and forced people to buy Nvidia cards (the gtx 580 is a monster really allmost two 560's) but there is a way you can download "hacked" driers to allow for that nowadays, however its a bit hummm shall we say framed upon by Nvidia, lol no wonder why
