That sounds AWESOME, I'll be looking more into that as I own an old GTX460, but my new rig is gonna have an HD6950, would be good to have those in so called 'hybrid'

You could just get yourself a cheap netbook that can run the old games. Less hassle.

Let me know how you get on.

I dont think I'll be playing any games that even have Physx
I only play total war games. The only game that might have physx is "From Dust", which Ill be getting for PC when I get it.
If I got SLI 580s Im sure "from dust" wouldnt be a prob. I just need to know if I can disable one of the cards when I go onto a game that plays worse with SLI

Hey guys
Can anyone tell me if this disables SLI and makes only one card work

It seems really easy
When I want SLI, I select one option
When I dont want SLI, I select a diffrent option easy!

No disabling needed, simply click start, tyle "Nvidia control panel" open it, head over to the SLI tab, disable SLI bridge. Done. Play game.

I believe there is value in having 2 graphics cards provided that 1 is an nVidia card. There is a way to use an nVidia card to run PhysX solely, I can't remember where I was reading about this. It had negligible impact on performance when paired with another (non-SLi setup) nVidia card but gave a considerable performance boost when paired with an AMD card.
Additionally, all this was done with an old 9800GTX as the nVidia card, same card as in my system, I'm thinking I might try this out when I upgrade my graphics card (which won't happen until I get my old PC back which won't happen until I move house which won't happen until I sell my house... you get the picture...)
On a side-note, anyone wanna buy a house?
