Hello everyone.
My first post here, I've been reading these forums for a few months, but never registered till now. I feel you guys are quite knowledgeable in the subject so I thought I'd ask you.
I am planning to get a new build soon, my current build is as follows:
P8 H67 M-LE + i7-2600 (non K)
2x8gb 1866 MHz DDR3 RAM
GTX 670 2gb
I plan to upgrade to:
Z170 based mobo (SLI/CF capable)
i7-6700K
2x8gb 2400 MHz DDR4
GTX 1070/1080
So I was wondering, will my GTX670 be useful as a dedicated PhysX card alongside the GTX 1070/1080? It's still working well (needs some dusting, though) and I don't want it to go to waste. On the other hand, I may be able to get a GTX970 for cheap from a friend who just upgraded to the GTX 1080FE recently, which I guess would also make a good PhysX card?
From what I understand, setting a PhysX card needs to be set in the Nvidia control panel, but does not need an SLI bridge. Do I need to download special driver profiles or something for it?
I currently have a 27" 1080p 60Hz monitor, but I intend to upgrade to 1440p 144Hz or maybe 4K on Black Friday this year.
I'm rambling. Anyway, tldr: as the title says, is a GTX 670 a good PhysX card to run alongside Pascal?
