Why is it called a PhysX
Performance patch? It should just be called a PhysX Effects Patch. I mean, WOW. I enabled advanced PhysX effects and the physics are mind blowing! Never seen anything like it. My performance got cut down by a lot though, I now average 25-50 FPS on high settings with no AA/AF at 1680 x 1050.
I even have a dedicated PhysX processing unit, a 9600GT. My main video card is a GTX 260, and both cards are overclocked. I have an E8400 CPU which is at stock clocks until my new cooler comes Tuesday. But this game doesn't use the CPU much at all, usage was usually below 50%. This should be changed to enhance performance, I'd like to see multi-thread optimization. Also in the part right before the theater (when you run into the bugs and a jailer), my FPS drops to the single digit area! I'm using the 185.85 WHQL drivers, and I know the proper way to install them (the proper method is in the IMPORTANT link in my signature).
I hope a real performance patch is on the way! Killing a bug at 5 FPS is hard. I have to lower graphics settings and it looks like poop that way
