Hey folks...just received a 750 Ti that I bought for cheap. Plan on refreshing my "dedicated PhysX PPU" research (link) that I last did with Borderlands 2, a GTX 690, 680, 640, 650, and 650 Ti.
My goal is to test the most relevant games/tests - and in my research, I have discovered that much has not changed since 2012 when I wrote that last article. Is PhysX nearly irrelevant? Possibly. Am I bored and looking for something "fun" and "different" to do? Definitely. If you have any thoughts/opinions on what tests/games I should benchmark - let me know.
Here is my current roster:
For hardware, I have 3x GTX 980 SC (although 2-way SLI will be the max, if I even do that - may stick to a single 980 as primary) and 1x GTX 750 Ti to play with (I have a 290X Lightning - but I'm not sure I want to delve into the realm of hacked PhysX drivers - has that been maintained? Back in 2012 it was pretty half-assed).
Anyway - appreciate any insight or thoughts. Thanks!
