No and yes, You'll need and an nvidia card with pre-forceware 186 or hacked drivers. So if you can get you hands on a secondhand 8000 series,9000 series, or GTS 250 you can. More recent cards probably not until a hack is released
ATI cards don't support Physx because it's proprietary owned by Nvidia so you'd need a cheap nvidia card to use.
A bit off topic I know but I'm kinda on the fence when come's to Physx which is why I'm asking this . I've got a spare 8800gt 512 gpu and was wondering if I put it the computer in my sig as a Physx card would I see any benefit or would I be wasting my time
Depends if you play a lot of games which use PhysX. Do you notice big performance issues when you do? If not I wouldn't bother - it's not worth the extra power drain imo.
I play game's like Batman / crysis / prototype etc on a 24in monitor . No performance issues at all so not worth it then ?
You can't run physx on Ati cards, you used to able to run physx on a physx card or nvidia card paired with an ATi card but they stopped allowing it through the drivers There is a workaround if you know how
