1
00:00:00,359 --> 00:00:06,680
so we haven't looked into physx since like 2011 and for some pretty good

2
00:00:04,759 --> 00:00:11,000
reasons actually but we'll get into that later looking back at the last physx

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:15,280
video we released we noticed quite the demand in the comment section for a

4
00:00:12,559 --> 00:00:19,000
modern follow-up so we'll do that and try a bunch of different scenarios and

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:23,939
add some more information to the

6
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:34,320
pool Intel skull Canyon Nook features a six generation core i7 processor and

7
00:00:32,279 --> 00:00:38,120
Thunderbolt 3 you can learn more at the link in the video

8
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:42,120
description so a few different questions will be raised and hopefully answered in

9
00:00:40,399 --> 00:00:47,520
this video we're going to look at the full range of current 1000 series NVIDIA

10
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:52,559
Pascal gpus and how they perform while running alongside a physx focused

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:57,000
lower-end GPU we're going to try to find what is the best bang for your buck in

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:02,079
if you're shopping for a physx card and we're going to try to figure out roughly

13
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:07,600
if it's worth it to add your old card to your new system as a physx GPU or if you

14
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:12,560
should just sell it then last but not least we'll I'll just have some fun with

15
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:18,600
some ludicrous setups like 1080 with a 1080 physx card and that's insane so why

16
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:23,200
not in order to test all of these scenarios we needed some games our

17
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:27,880
chosen games were Assassin's Creed Black Flag Metro last Light Fallout 4 and

18
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:32,560
Batman Arkham Knight one of the most controversial releases of recent years

19
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:37,280
so right away with Assassin's Creed Black Flag and Fallout 4 it just seems

20
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:42,119
that having a physx card really doesn't do anything but Metro last Light does

21
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:47,840
show relatively minor increases across the board and then boom holy benchmarks

22
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:52,399
Batman out of nowhere like a thug in a dark alley maybe too soon it's been a

23
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:57,799
while the Batman benchmarks did show significant improvements with a

24
00:01:54,479 --> 00:02:00,240
dedicated physx card and yeah let's dive

25
00:01:57,799 --> 00:02:04,680
deeper we'll start with the GTX 106 we first paired it with the

26
00:02:01,799 --> 00:02:08,920
gt730 now the gt730 is a really card if you're wondering why check out

27
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:14,640
this video when paired with this shitty card it lost five frames per second on

28
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:19,959
average rough when moving up to the 750 Ti however we saw an overall Improvement

29
00:02:16,959 --> 00:02:21,720
of about 2.5 FPS not a huge gain but

30
00:02:19,959 --> 00:02:26,200
it's something to work with stepping up a little bit to the 1070 we saw a

31
00:02:23,519 --> 00:02:32,720
similar story but to more extremes with the 1030 as a physx card we saw a loss

32
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:36,280
of 11 FPS then with the 750 we saw a

33
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:38,519
gain of 5 FPS so cool again when looking

34
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:45,239
at the 1080 we saw extremes paired with the 730 it dropped almost 16 FPS with

35
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:47,480
the 750 it gained just over 5 FPS and

36
00:02:45,239 --> 00:02:54,360
going up from there we seem to max out at a gain of about 6 to S even when the

37
00:02:51,239 --> 00:02:58,120
dedicated card was just another 1080

38
00:02:54,360 --> 00:03:00,120
which is crazy whoa okay so one of the

39
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:04,239
cool things here is all of of the particle effects that are just

40
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,959
everywhere the smoke the little Sparks there's a bunch of different stuff in

41
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:12,120
this scene and that's why this game benefits so much from fizx but as you

42
00:03:09,159 --> 00:03:16,040
can see right now it's choppy it doesn't feel very good and that's because we're

43
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:22,080
running with the GTX 730 if you check out in the bottom corner here you can

44
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:24,799
see the utilization of both gpus the 730

45
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:31,040
is doing a lot of work but the 1080 is barely working at all the 1080 is GPU 1

46
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:32,920
the 730 is GPU 2 now with the 750 Ti you

47
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:36,200
can see it's much more smooth the particle effects are all running fine

48
00:03:34,439 --> 00:03:39,959
it's not choppy anymore all that kind of good stuff and again we come down to the

49
00:03:37,879 --> 00:03:44,120
corner you can see that the utilization of the first card is not being hampered

50
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,280
at all it's able to go full bore all the time which is why everything's much more

51
00:03:45,879 --> 00:03:51,959
smooth the physics card is able to operate on its own and do everything it

52
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:58,079
needs to while not hampering the actual normal GPU and with that the sales of

53
00:03:54,760 --> 00:04:00,439
GTX 750 Ti and 760's go through the

54
00:03:58,079 --> 00:04:07,079
freaking roof NVIDIA mails us a check for $1 billion we buy 12 new office

55
00:04:03,879 --> 00:04:10,360
buildings each for one of Linus' Lambos

56
00:04:07,079 --> 00:04:12,640
and troll away into the night not so

57
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:17,720
fast little Lambo lonus not so fast there are like an embarrassingly low

58
00:04:15,319 --> 00:04:22,199
amount of games that support physx and not that many come around the corner

59
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:26,199
that will either a hard sell for someone that could just flip their old graphic

60
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,320
card for more lunch money or avoid buying a physx card altogether so in the

61
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:36,280
end the answer is it's just not worth it unless you really

62
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:42,280
really like Batman games or for some other very intensely physx title and

63
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:44,520
there really aren't many of them so good

64
00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:48,000
luck if you like this video like it and get subscribed if you dislike this video

65
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:52,120
and you're like dude don't make a thugs in an alley joke about Batman that's

66
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:56,840
just rude dislike it uh if you want a shirt or any of the things that you saw

67
00:04:54,440 --> 00:05:00,400
us use like graphics cards in this video you can check links in the video

68
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:06,120
description below including to Amazon if you want to see another video that we've

69
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:08,120
released check out this one on uh why

70
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,639
SLI is crazy right now like what the hell is going on with SLI cuz it's it's

71
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:15,800
nuts directx12 who knows
