Resident Evil 5 is not a GPU accelerated PhysX game. You won't gain any performance from adding the 8600 as a PhysX card for that game.

Here's the list of GPU accelerated PhysX games (below). If you play one of those games, you will gain a nice boost in performance from adding the 8600 in any available PCIe slot. After you install it, then all you have to do is select it in the Nvidia Control Panel "Set PhysX Configuration" tab.
