I wonder if anybody has any insight on the matter. My friend wanted to upgrade the graphics card on his PC. His PC has an Asus M2V rev 1.01 motherboard, with an Athlon X2 64 5600+ dual core processor, 2 GB of RAM, and a 500 Watts PSU. His current video card is a Radeon X1800 256MB. He bought a...

Like I said in my previous post I've been using a PCI ethernet adapter, and apart from the onboard ethernet adapter not working, I really have no other problems with this motherboard and processor. I was even able to overclock the Phenom II X4 940 to 3.4 Ghz (haven't tried to go any further...

But now that nVidia implemented the PhysX capability to the Series 8 and above cards I started wondering...

Ops, I guess you had already figured that out... didn't see your previous post. LOL.

It could be a problem with the video card itself. Do you have another system handy to try it out? Or it could be some sort of incompatibility with the motherboard. Check the BIOS firmware version. If it's an older one you might consider flashing the BIOS. Of course always be very careful when...

Well just to give you an idea of how well Crysis scales with SLI, this is what I get with my system. I have an AMD Athlon X2 5600+, Gigabyte nForce 590 SLI motherboard, 2 Gigs of RAM, 2 BFG GeForce 8800GT OC 512MB and Windows XP SP2 Pro. I'm running the Forceware 174.74 Beta drivers and Crysis...
