Thumbs up Geforce Drivers & Nvidia PhysX Experiment!

Yesterday I wanted to see if the Nvidia PhysX drivers had to be used with the 177.83 drivers for them to work or not.
So this is what I did.

Totally uninstalled the 177.83 & PhysX drivers, then used Driver Cleaner to delete any remaining files.

Then I installed the 177.35 driver (mod) & installed the PhysX driver package I'd taken out of the 177.83 driver package.

These are the results...
Does the PhysX driver package work with other 177.xx drivers? YES it does!
(I don't know what all the driver versions it will support, you'll just have to install PhysX & see)

I checked the site where I got the Geforce 177.83 PhysX Enabled drivers and they now have and Update!
New driver version is Geforce 177.92...
I've already updated & install this driver & it has even better performance than the last!
Geforce Graphics 177.92 drivers with PhysX: Force Within: Download

If you would like to see if the Nvidia PhysX stand alone driver package works with your driver version just install it and see...
You can download that here in the AOA files.

Nvidia PhysX 8.08.01.exe
