    Silverfall Earth Awakening Requires AGEIA PhysX drivers installed on my 8800M-GTS laptop!

    My drivers are installed but PhysX not enabled :rolleyes: Not a problem, I’m having fun; this is a stand alone game. I did not play the earlier game so have not developed any game strategies; you also start at level 40. This game is not even listed on the developer’s site afaik. Graphics, 6 out of 10 at this time, as i compare to other games, YMMV.

    Cuda enabled nVidia GPU's ; http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_learn_products.html

    As far as PhysX, IMHO, I would think you would have to rob Peter to pay Paul without additional hardware GPU processors to allow parallel tasks. Let us know if you find out different.
