I've recently been looking into getting an EVGA GTX 670 FTW, if I would get it would it be better to use my current Gigabyte GTX 550Ti as a dedicated Physx card, or should I do something different with it and use the 670 for Physx. Would using the 670 for Physx and having the 550Ti as just an addition GPU increase my maximum resolution, and by how much?

i say dont use the gtx 550 at all..using gtx550 as physx card while using gtx670 as main card will provide only a marginal increase in fps . while other way round is not recommendd either..just use your gtx670 as your main card and sell your gtx550 .. also check this link out as to why

The big question is what PhysX games do you intend to play? Many people get confused as to what games will benefit from a dedicated PhysX card. Here's a list:
