Dual GPU setup boosts RTX 5090 performance in PhysX games

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A recent test explored the performance gains of using a secondary RTX 5060 GPU alongside a primary RTX 5090 in specific PhysX-enabled games. The experiment focused on classic Batman Arkham titles, aiming to determine the effectiveness of this dual-GPU setup in boosting frame rates, particularly in scenarios where PhysX is heavily utilized. This approach is presented as an alternative to the defunct SLI technology for enhancing gaming performance. AI
