You got yourself a nice system, congratulations. What resolution are you playing at?

Hey Jemc, I game on a Dell Wide-screen 1440p monitor.

Given tha tthe 9070XT is an excellent 1440p card and very capable at 4K, that middle ground of ultrawide 1440p feels like a perfect match for the card,

I hope it gives you many hours of fun.

Unless someone intends to play certain older games like Borderlands 2 and Mirror's Edge a lot then support for the 32 bit version of PhysX getting dropped will have minimal impact. It's still a shame though and does make the 4090 an even better GPU than it already was with it being the best one to support that. People who got one of those at MSRP within a few months of it coming out made a damn good purchase since it's gonna age extremely well with it still being the clear 2nd best GPU. Hopefully fans are able to create a workaround for those older games since I don't really feel like putting in a secondary GPU just for those effects.

I am hearing they are looking for work around, like software updates or something like that. The GPUs are powerful enough so they should be able to achieve the same things. I hope they find a way to bring back PhyX in some sort of form.

Since Nvidia has made Physx open source, many are waiting for community patches that fix the problem.

But I honestly don't know how they could do it or even if they will. They may try create a tool that updates the old Physx code of those games to the newer 64-bit one, or they may limit themselves to just launch patches for a few titles, likely the more popular ones.
