Can I Use My Old GTX 1070 for PhysX in My New PC Build?
Asked by

Hey everyone! I'm in the process of building a new PC and I'm planning to reuse some parts from my current setup. I've got a GeForce RTX 5070 Ti for my new build, but I still have my old GTX 1070 lying around. Since the 5070 Ti doesn't support PhysX, I was wondering if I could install the 1070 alongside it to handle PhysX while gaming, like in Borderlands 2. Will it fit in my case without any issues, and is it compatible with my motherboard (which is a B650E)? I'm new to PC building and I'm not sure what to do with the 1070 otherwise. Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can use your old GTX 1070 alongside your new 5070 Ti! It should fit in your case without any problems. As for installation, it’s pretty straightforward; just make sure your motherboard supports both cards. It's easy to set the preferred GPU for your games in Windows graphics settings too!
