ATI + NVDIA BERGABUNG DALAM PHYSX


Akhirnya yang telah di tunggu2 oleh para penggemarnya telah tiba, Physx bisa di terapkan di VGA ATI, misal ATI HD 4850 sebagai master nya untuk rendering dan Nvidia 8500GT sebagai slave yang difungsikan sebagai Physx akhirnya dapat berhasil terdeteksi dengan sukses.

Dibawah ini adalah SS dari Fluidmark tentang bechmarking ATI dan NVDIA















Untuk menjalankan Physx di ATI ini anda membutuhkan driver nya, silahkan donload versi demo nya di sini NVIDIA Nurien Technology Demo

Untuk cara penggunaan bisa dilihat dibawah ini :
1. Misal VGA yang digunakan adalah ATI HD4850 dan NVDIA 8500GT. dan 2 monitor
2. Pasang VGA Nvdia8500GT sebagai primary VGA dulu dan ATI HD 4850 secondary VGA dengan extended monitor/vga (harus tersedia 2 monitor), masuk ke physx Control panel aktifkan geforce physx lalu klik pd pilihan, klik tombol apply diulangi lg beberapa kali
3. Pada posisi ini klik juga di display pada nvidia control panel (krn ada juga catalyst CC) pilih menu Physx menu klik enable dan klik tombol apply diulangi jg beberapa kali untuk meyakinkan. Biarkan saja kondisi 2 menu tampilan tersebut.
4. Pindahkan posisi primary VGA/monitornya ke VGA ATI dan secondary ke VGA nvie dgn extended monitor aktif ( ada pilihannya), kemudian setelah itu dapat di coba dengan software benchmarking physx yaitu FLUIDMARK.
5. Test dengan software atau game yang udah support Phsyx , misal GRAW

Silahkan mencoba...:)
