is the gtx 670 bad for old games?

660Ti is a great card, but why would you not game at 1920x1200?

Who is getting Alice TODAY?

if you have an extra x16 slot, get a cheap nvidia card and install hybrid physx mod, i enjoy the blood/goop it adds to borderlands 2. i might have to pick up this game as well!

Failed to Initialize PhysX Hardware Acceleration

yeah, those files need to stay there. at this point you should uninstall and reinstall this game. physx will still need to be present, it just won't be in use by your GPU, there may be some CPU physx working, but it won't be much as CPU physx is pretty terrible.

New PSU drop in FPS

did you plug everything in where it needed to be? like the cpu power, pci-e power? i know it sounds basic, and i don't mean to insult you, but just forgetting to do one power connection to your board or vid card could cause this.

GTS 250 and Borderlands 2

turning off ambient occlusion is one thing that will boost frames and offers little. i would turn that off too and see if that raises FPS. as far as physx, the only way i know to try and get it to push onto the CPU is to go to the nvidia control panel and set physx to CPU only instead of what...
