    phyxs not with graphics card


    i have a geforce gtx 650 and i have been using it for a while now and i have been happy with it performance. i have recently read up about phyxs and wondered if my gpu was compatible with it.
    it says on the box that it is but i installed 'NVIDIA PhysX Particle Fluid Demo' and it says that i do not have phyxs. iv tried installing dll's but its not working.

    is my gpu compatible or not?
    if it is, where can i find the driver?

    many thanks

    Oh, you may still need to do one of two things (or both):

    1. In the NVIDIA Control Panel, click "Set PhysX configuration"
    2. Under "Select a PhysX processor", choose "GTX 650"
    3. Click Apply at the bottom


    Failing that, download and install this:

    NVIDIA DRIVERS 9.12.1031 (this is the "NVIDIA PhysX System Software" download)

    Direct download (after clicking "Download" and then "Agree & Download"): http://us.download.nvidia.com/Window...emSoftware.msi

    You're welcome! :)

    What was the solution? Setting the PhysX processor, or installing the PhysX software?

    Whoa. Here I thought it was from installing the software.

    Knowing what the solution is should help the next person who has the same question. Thank you, skrillek!

    It is interesting. Ive tried both settings CPU and GPU as a PhysX processor.
    For me, I always seem to get better game performance when its on the GPU.
