if i select auto dedicate on nvidia panel ( i have gtx 770 sli ) will it use my cpu too ? because my CPU is not very strong ( i7 950 3.9ghz ) so what should i do ? use auto or gpu 1 or 2 ?
 
Solution
Actually, putting PhysX to Auto will spread the PhysX processing out between both cards, allowing you to retain your full SLI performance. The Auto setting does not leave you with only one card doing graphics... that would just be silly. The important thing is that it does not revert to the CPU, which is the worst-case scenario.

so are you saying i should use auto mode ?
 


yup. with SLI choosing auto will put the physx processing on second gpu.
