Medal of Honor: Airborne Message Board  

guys....i need to know one thing. do u need a Physx Card to play this game? Is it an absolute must to play this game with a Physx Card or u can play it without it and without harming ur hardware? please advise. thank you.

No, physx is kinda obsolete in terms of a card, most cards atleast with nvidia have it built in to their 8 series or higher.

PhysX isn't obsolete its a brand new tech.
no u don't need physX to play, i have a GeForce 8800GTX and its working fine.

the only thing you need is the nVidia GeForce 6600 or higher to play the game, because I believe only the 6600 model and the newer ones have the Physx card built-in. I'm using an Nvidia Geforce 8500 and it's fine for me.
