Question since you are runing a 9600GSO as a physx card.

Does the performance increase a great amount? Or is it really just to have for a power hungry user. I ask cause i noticed my Vantage score is pretty low. I'm thinking its lack of physx that is keeping my score down.

Any advice?

Vantage is heavily physx based. The CPU score will increase greatly with a Physx capable setup. I JUST got this working so no testing yet, but I'm sure it will work just fine.

Physx has nothing to do with performance..
It has to do with a little extra eye candy in some games.

Physx will give you bogus extra points in Vantage.

What is your score without it?

Total score with a little over clocking is around P9310, without it it's in the P8000's

Which i find to be a bit low. As my 3Dmark scores where 13316 (stock clocks)

Yep, its definitely working just fine. I'm using the stock cooler right now, which is why its only at 3GHz. But yep, it working just fine. At 4.2GHz without a PhysX card, it was below 18k.

And we are talking about the system in your specs right?

If so do me a favor and post a screen shot of your task manager showing open processes.
