Hello all,
I hate posting threads like this one, but I've been doing research, and I feel like a couple opinions would be invaluable in helping me make the right call for my situation.
I currently have an ATI Radeon 5850. It runs everything fine, but I want to take advantage of GPU PhysX in a few games such as the Batman games, Mirror's Edge, and Metro 2033 (and it's upcoming sequel).
I'm not looking for a huge upgrade right now, since I'll probably build a new computer in the next year or so (at that point, I'll buy another $350 card). Right now, I really would like to spend $150-$200 (and I'll sell my 5850).
So, can anyone recommend the cheapest Nvidia card that will run Physx at a good rate while running my other games as well as a 5850?
Will a 560 Ti do this?
I usually buy from Amazon.com or NewEgg.com, but I'm open to other sites. I'm in the US.
My current system:
Power Supply: Antec True Power 750W TP-750
Motherboard: MSI P55-GD65
CPU: Intel i5-750 Lynnfield 2.66GHZ Quad-Core (Overclocked to 3.8GHZ)
RAM: Crucial 8GB (4x2GB) DDR3-1333 PC3-10600 Dual Channel (Overclocked to 1600MHZ)
Video Card: ATI Radeon 5850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
Monitor resolution: 1920x1200
Thanks!!
