but would it not lay off proccessing phyics from the proccesser allowing more processing to be aimed at the graphic?

or is it that there is no support avalable for it to be used on FSX

ya in 2 ways,
A. PhysX is not supported by FSX
B. the nvidia 8000 and up cards double as physx cards with the recent drivers.

Yeah, I noticed that some Physx program appears in my program list when I last installed drivers (177.92 Beta).  Can I uninstall that via "Add Remove Programs" or do the drivers need this program to function properly?
