Hello TH, I remember reading about this being possible but I searched and couldn't find out if it was possible still. I have a XFX R9 280X and a PNY 560ti. Is it possible to use them at the same time? I am currently using my CPU for Borderlands 2 PhysX and it does pretty well, until I start blowing crap up, fps drops to 11.2 in a hurry.. Anyways thanks in advance!

you need nvidia hacked driver. although i'm not sure if the more recent drivers has been hacked or not. if the physx option is available to you (which i heard it did in borderlands 2 despite no nvidia cards in the system) just set to the lowest setting or use cpu physics only.

No I had to moddify the INI file to get PhysX to work off my CPU. I wonder if my Antec 750w HCG will be enough to power the 560ti and the R9 280X.. I found the wiki for the Hybrid PhysX setup I think I might give it a try.
