    Do you have the latest physx driver installed?

    It makes a difference depending on what level you set. The higher the level you set, the less FPS you get.

    I get drops into the 40 range with physx high and all game details high. res: 1920x1200.

    there is currently an issue with kepler 680/670 on the desktop side with low frames when high physx is enabled, they are working on a fix. i suspect physx performance to improve in the future.

    my opinion is that it's a bit of a waste on the blood (looks so unnatura)l but looks nice with water/debris/acid.

    Try to see if you have PhysX on CPU in the NVIDIA control panel. That grays out the option. Set it to GPU or Autoselect.
