MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Sea Hawk Graphics Cards

You're right, Frostbite is powered by Havok which does not have a PhysX backend. I thought it did. But Quadro and Geforce are definitely the same silicon. Here's nvidia's own words on the difference between Geforce and Quadro: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/37/~/difference-between-geforce-and-quadro-gpus Not much on there is hardware specific, it's mostly all software differentiation. The same GPU silicon is just configured for a different workload, like more CUDA or higher precision FPUs. They're not different products, that would be silly and expensive. As for Tomb Raider, maybe I'm mixing it up with Witcher? I remember there being a lot of hype about hairworks vs TressFx and I think I mixed up which was which. IIRC, TressFX was less polished than Hairworks, but Hairworks ran poorly on AMD (as per usual). Still, both Witcher and Tomb Raider ran cross-platform... because both those techs are just libraries and algorithms. They're not platform or hardware specific in any way. Just like every other SDK out there...

Wow. you are so clueless, it's just pointless to argue with you any more. Frostbite does NOT use physx, never did, they have their own physics engine, and if you don't believe me, check it yourself with PhysX indicator in the game. Tomb Raider uses AMD's TressFX and PureHair, not nvidia's hairworks. On top of that, you complete misunderstanding of the differences between GTX and Quadro is astounding, to put it mildly. Anyways, I'm done with you, you can continue to live in your own bubble, just don't be shocked when the reality hits you in the face.

What are you talking about buddy? You do realize Quadros and GTX cards share the same silicon, right? The titan line is the fine line between Quadro and GTX, not to mention Quadros cost $2-4k a pop. Also every game made with unreal engine or unity 3D utilize PhysX for their physics engine. And battlefield has had PhysX support since at least the launch of DICE’s frostbite engine with Bad Company and it’s destructible environments. And all the tomb raiders since the series reboot have all used hairworks. One last FYI, PhysX and the rest of nvidia’s gameworkx toolkit are cross platform and hardware agnostic. Nvidia just promises performance for nvidia cards due to their tailored hardware and drivers. But no, devs don’t always opt for cross platform stuff that often, look at how popular DirectX is. Big companies just make the graphics engine support multiple platforms like DX12 and Vulkan.
