Motherboard: MP AKX EXTREME 790x
CPU: Phenom II x4 B50 @ 3.255g

Dispaly card: 2 x Nvidia 9800gt 512m

The 8800 / 9800 are often recommended as good PhysX card's but wiuth games which really use PhysX, you may want more "oomph" in ya primary vid cards.

Look at the frame rates here:

Of course it will depend on your resolution.

I'm not up on the 9800's capabilities. In the meantime, you can check over in the SLIzone forums over on the nVidia site.
