nVidia disables PhysX on systems with other manufacturers graphics

Podle ngohq se nVidia rozhodla deaktivovat PhysX v počítačích obsahujících grafický čip ostatních výrobců. Od driverů řady 186 už nebude možné používat grafickou kartu ATi (či Intel v budoucnu) pro rendering a GeForce pro fyzikální výpočty.

Well for all those who have have used Nvidia cards for PhysX and ATI cards to render graphics in Windows 7...All that is about to change.

Since the release of 186 graphics drivers Nvidia has decided to disable PhysX anytime a Non-Nvidia GPU is even present in the same PC. Nvidia again has shot themselves in the foot here and showed they are not customer oriented. Since they are pushing Physx this will not win over any ATI fanboys with this latest decision.

So this really confirms that PhysX will be doomed as an adopted API regardless how hard Nvidia pushes it as a result of action like this.
