My specs are:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200@2.33Ghz
GPU: Gigabyte Geforce GTX 650 Ti 2GB OC Edition
RAM: 4GB DDR2

Can I run with PhysX on high? If so, how many frames per second will I most likely get? I will be running at 1600x900 resolutions.

looks like it doesn't take a super tier GPU to run so your GTX 650 Ti will be more than enough I imagine

but it looks like your CPU will bottleneck you, it's under the Phenom II X6 but should still be stronger than any of the FX's (since Borderlands mainly relies on single thread/core performance)

all in all, it looks like you should be able to run it at your resolution at Max settings, rather than high, at around 45 ish fps, and should be able to smoothly run high at around 60 fps

this is all speculation and guessing through benchmarks, since i've never played the game, so it may not...

I don't think you will be able to run pysX unless you set your settings to low...

I maxed this game on a 1080p with a gtx 670 and a 3570k - Although this game isn't very heavy I wouldn't turn up all the details with your specs because you might get a choppy experience.
