I am the night...I am...
^^ Well buddy to be honest, our forum member cilus has already done it. He has a 6870cfx which are primary cards and a 8800gt as physx card. There's a physx hacked driver available that bypasses nvidia driver security allowing amd card to be primary.

Give this a read.

Btw cilus will help me do it. Pm him to know more cause he has tried it practically.

The game is beyond friggin' awesome. It has so much more stuff to do, besides completing the main missions. Exploration is the key out here. The city is huge. They have ditched the traditional mini-map and used a direction bar on the top of the screen, which is a really idiotic move.

What's with these games? The requirements are on the high! Would the game run on a 9500GT with 1360*768 resolution and all others set to the absolute minimum? My friend has this card, he wants to play it so bad.

@vickybat dude will your mobo run the x16 slot at full speed when you plug a card in the x4 slot? My mobo will default to dual x4 if I plug in a card in the x4 slot. Which is why I am not going for hybrid physx with a used 8800gt that my friend gifted me...

Guys this game is based on the humble Unreal Engine.. why is even everyone so worried in the first place? If you do have a somewhat lower end card( like me xD) just play at 1280X720 resolutions with physx turned off.. after all its the game that matters. can't wait for it! >.< even rocksteady is f***ing with pc gamers.

That's the problem with Intel's chipsets. Not many people realize that they support fewer PCie lanes compared to AMD, and that may create problems in future as PCIe lanes are not only for addon cards but also support other controllers. Here's an excerpt from Xbit Labs MSI Z68A-GD80 (G3) mobo review:-

A single graphics accelerator will work at full PCI Express 3.0 x16 speed, and if both slots are occupied it will be cut down in half. As for the third slot, you can install a graphics card there, too, but it will work as PCI Express 2.0 and its maximum speed will never exceed x4. Moreover, these four lanes are provided not by the CPU, but by the system core logic set. In normal mode they are used for different additional controllers, so if you have a graphics card installed into the third slot, then you will have to sacrifice one eSATA and one SATA port, both internal USB 3.0 ports, IEEE1394 (FireWire) support and two PCI slots.

I don't know why so many users think x4/x4 will be slow :/
