I am somehow doubtful that a 9500 is better than a 8800

I think mini meant what would be better as a PhysX card in addition to his 8800GTS, obviously a 9500GT is quicker than a 8600GT.

Indeed, looked into the list of games that would use it, only really mass effect out of the ones im currently playing, but something worth considering.

Greetings!

The Badaboom review:
Badaboom: A Full Test of Elemental's GPU Accelerated H.264 Transcoder

But:
The Badaboom output quality is definitely lower than what x264 was able to produce, but it's close enough for our purposes.

I've just bought a passive 9500GT to go in my 2nd PCI-E x4 slot, looked pretty cool and cheap, plus no external power needed :-

http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Graphics+Cards/PCI-E/nVIDIA+GeForce+9+Series/nVidia+GeForce+9500GT+512MB+PCI-E+?productId=33062

So for either dedicated PhysX or an extra Folding card I'm good to go... Wink

Id do the same but as I have Thermalright HR-03 with a 80mm fan stuck below the fan, id have to remove the cooler and turn it round to get access to the 2nd PCI-E slot, and cant fase the hassle right now. If I decide to buy the new HDDs ill do it all in a oner.
