    I downloaded it, have hardware physx enabled, and I get an average of 20-30 fps. When playing Warmonger and Cellfactor, I see a great impact of performance with and without Physx enabled. Help please?

    I assume you have the PhysX card installed seeing you have the 1730. The new physX is for the GPU. Did you make sure to select the PhysX card in the PhysX properties instead of the GPU?

    Yeah, i have it selected for the physx card. I can also use the gpu as a physx card with equal performance, with 177.92 forceware, but i wanna use the physx card. [​IMG]

    Note, it's put on gpu to envy people with the crappy stock drivers by dell

    Here's the problem, at the start of the map with all textures etc loaded, it runs at 40 fps. After 10 seconds, my fps drops to 20 fps
