Not necessarily; PhysX worked quite well for me in the Beta

Went around 50 FPS with highest settings...

actually the other way round if you are an nvidia guy less load on the cpu

Oh ok, I assumed they removed it due to performance issues. I could be wrong. I can't remember now. Was it due to issues caused by non-NVidia users?

The reason it was removed was because Nvidia broke it on their end (with broken driver releases).

Nvidia got around to fixing it.

I hope it doesnt give me worse performance with my non Invidia card.

Same here. I can run Borderlands 2 maxed out and never see a thing wrong, but force just 1 bit of PhysX on my non-Nividia rig and I can't run it on low to med settings without lag building up.

Love the effects, hate the hit. Like a kinky girlfriend, you're getting some but at what cost?

PhysX runs CPU side also. Having an nVidia GPU however makes it run better.

Sweet! Been waiting for this, I really enjoyed the effects it added.

Don't they put in a 2nd chip just for PhysX in all their cards?

I have a micro case so there's no real chance to OC my 2500k I5 due to limited space. Don't even have the room for a 2nd video card. Not a big deal anyway. Although I like the effects of PhysX, the game kicks ass without it.
