Hi Guys
I got a new Xfx 9800 GTX Blace Edition 512mb card
and i heard i can to enable physx
on it or i'm mistaken?


i got new Nvidia drivers 177.40

how i enable the physx here dudes ??

You can enable Physx just not yet, its not due to come out till July, i dont think the betas have Physx in you might have to wait till WHQL drivers.

i just finished installing PhysX_8.06.12 whql driver

he will do something ?

becouse he doesnt shows nothing to me

only those demos


it should be like this?

Download drivers 177.39, edit the INF for adding your card and enjoy getting 20K in 3DMark's Vantage CPU Bench.... (Did that to my 8800GT)
You can also use it in the UT3 PhysX enabled map. You won't get any other advantage AFAIK.
(177.40-1 don't have the PhysX capability IIRC, only .39)

OP - that's all you need. you have the physx drivers and the proper video card drivers.

go into the physx driver's props and mod them for Nvidia physics

Vantage showed a CPU score increase from 6k to 26k; 400pts overall. (not w/ these newest drivers though)

how do i mod them for Nvidia Drivers?

Don't come back crying that it screwed something....

Go in device manager, check properties of the GFX card, look in the detail tab then under Proerty check the Hardware Ids.
You will see stuff like this:"PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0611&SUBSYS_00000000&REV_A2"
Stuff in bold is what matters.

Unpack the driver you DLed as normal, just cancel the installation.
Open in notepad the nv_disp.inf.
There two places where you will see similar stuffs as you just noted, one early in the file, the second in the end.
Ex:

The First:
"%NVIDIA_G92.DEV_0612.1% = nv_G9x, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0612"

The second:
"NVIDIA_G92.DEV_0612.1 = "NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX""

Replace all DEV_XXXX with the one of your card.
Change the name string for your card.
You may use whatever.

Change only one card, no need to change all cards lol.

Remember that you will use a limited Beta drivers on a card not intended for it.

do i need to do something in agia physx drvers to see my card installed ?

No, you already have it.
All what missed is the GFX Driver.
I hope you know that you are doing all this just to get PhysX support in 3Dmark Vantage and the "special" map for UT3.
Nothing else will be supported by the GPU.
Basically, you may have more bugs than benefits...

the new drivers were released.. no need to mod anything

were dude? there some info?

actually i want to check the cellfactor and see how it dows now
and if can use agia maps and see diffrence

177.40-1 don't enable PhysX, only 177.39.
You have different info?

Use 177.79 with Physx v8.07.18 , works in most games except Cell Factor

OK, I'm so friggin confused now. I have a BFG 8800GTS 512oc. I downloaded and installed Nvidia Forceware for Vista 177.83 w\PhysX. Now I have this new item in control panel:

The demos wouldn't work at first, it was giving me a directx 9 error. I fixed that and now the demos run, but now what? I have it set to GeForce Physx. I checked out the games list and I own a few of them, but they are not installed at the moment. I guess my question is: Does everything look proper the way it is? Are those control panels set and correct?
