I bought one of these for 20 dollars out of curiosity to see if I could get hardware PhysX acceleration alongside an AMD GPU. To my suprise, it actually worked, however you may have trouble acquiring the drivers for it as Nvidia dropped the drivers from their recent PhysX redist packages. As far as performance goes these run fairly smooth, I can run Mirror's Edge with physx enabled on my Radeon HD5850 1gb and it works beautifully where it would otherwise be doing 2 or 3 FPS, with a little bit of noticeable choppiness every so often but it's not too bad. To get this working you'll need to first search for an original Ageia Physx installer (it has to be ageia. nvidia versions will not contain the drivers for this. I searched google and found a link to an Ageia installer from 4shared.) then you'll have to probably restart to get the drivers to recognize, double check in the device manager and it should have its own section. then go over your physx installation with a redist package from a video game like mirror's edge or metro 2033, go to your control panel and open up "nvidia physx", should bring up a small window called physx properties. go to settings tab and at the top where it says hardware device selection check the AGEIA PhysX button, apply, ok, and you should be ready to play with all the fancy extras on most games. Keep in mind though, I suggest backing up your working physx installation in case a new install screws things up. also if a new install goes over it you'll have to repeat checking that ageia is the hardware device.Read full review
Works great but only for older Physx games not supported by Geforce critics. Google Ageia for more info

It's still a great product, originally installed on my DELL XPS.
