Hello,
Just wanted an opinion from a performance perspective of having a dedicated graphics card.
I have a Zotac GTX560Ti as well as an older overclocked XFX 9600 GSO lying around, and it just occurred to me that I could be using the two in the same machine. My question is, in a game that utilizing PhysX, would I see an increase or decrease in performance? I know the 9600GSO is slow and there would be no point adding it in if it bottle-necked graphic performance.
Also, what do you think would a better configuration?
GTX560Ti @ x8 + 9600GSO @ x8
OR
GTX560Ti @ x16 + 9600GSO @ x4
Yeah, the mobo is weird like that.
Specs:
Intel i3 2120 CPU
Gigabyte Z68 MOBO
OCZ 700W 80+ PSU
Zotac GTX 560 Ti overclocked
