Sorry but there is NO way an 8600gt helped with physx as opposed to doing both on your gtx570. An 8600gt would be slower than having the 570 do both graphics and physx that is a fact. Even in games with no where near the effects as in BL 2, an 8600gt would only slow down a 570.I was using an 8600gt in my system for borderlands 2 and it did just fine (1680*1050 with everything turned up). So I would say yes, it will work out just fine.

Borderlands 2 has a few spots that all the gpu power in the world is not going to keep framerates up with physx on high due to poor optimization. If you have a higher end gpu then I would not even bother getting a dedicated gpu for physx.
My framerate increased by about 10fps in most places when I put the 8600 in, I'm not saying that it wasn't running at 80-90% most of the time, but it did help, also for some reason borderlands would not do physx on my 570 even after I changed the settings in the nvidia control panel (werid software glitch?).
I dont believe what he is claiming. The 8600gt has been way too slow for physx for many years now. It would barely help the gtx275 and gtx280 and in many cases barely broke even with what those cards could do by themselves. I used the 8600gt for physx with my gtx260 and it helped a little but in some cases actually gave a lower minimum framerate. With a gtx570 there is zero chance it would help especially since physx has gotten more demanding and the 8600gt is not even sufficient any longer anyway.This is good stuff to note. even when it would seem theoretically impossible for it to work, ive seen stranger things. like the original halo playing at 30fps on a 300mhz pentium3.
