$300 GPU to do graphics, $50 GPU to do physics

So apparently you can now set one GPU to do the graphics portion of the game, and another to do the physics portion. I might pick up one of those new nVidia GeForce 8400GS's and stick it in with my GeForce 8800GTS and set them to do Graphics/Physics. Does anyone know anything more on this? Oh, and also apparently they dont need to be the same card like they do in SLI, and its supposed to work a lot better because your GPU doesnt have to keep witching from Graphics/Physics/Graphics/Physics. I do not know if this is legit or not, so does anyone know about this?

Id do some research on this first. I wasnt aware that you could do this with a regular nvidia card, im preety sure you have to buy one of those Ageia cards. ATi on the other hand, you can do it with a regular ATi card.

Only works if the game was set up to do it... and the games that have been setup to do it have shown ZERO improvement by doing this... Not worth it IMO.
Crysis doesn't support it because Crytek said they don't see any advantage to using one.
Crysis needs to stop with that stupid UFO crap, people are actually believing it lol.
Oh and if you got a top of the line vid card......prty sure you don't need to stick a 2nd one on top of it to play games at perfect settings :>
If I sold vid cards, I would tell people this so they bought 2 instead of 1.
