absolute state of PC gaymers - I bought a 3050 to pair with my 5090 to un-cripple PhysX performance in older 32-bit titles
https://old.reddit.com/r/hardware/comments/1iv2x5h/i_bought_a_3050_to_pair_with_my_5090_to_uncripple/
TLDR
If you bought a new 50 Series card, old games which have PhysX implementations for cool stuff in game will just grind to a halt and wont work.
25FPS vs 160FPS 
66FPS vs 415FPS

It just doesn't make sense to remove features from a 2000 dollar GPU

There is literally zero fricking reason for you to be running your game in 32-bit mode if you have a 5000 series GPU STFU troll.

Give one realistic example of use case where you need 5000 series GPU but also need to run the application in 32-bit.

You can bet there is some software/hardware engineering decision behind the architecture decision that causes this issue. It's probably beneficial to 99.999% users. If you are in the 0.001% user that has an 5000 series to simulate robotic engineering systems or something you can literally just stick to 4000 series or go frick yourself.

R-slur, you don't choose to run programs in 32/64 bit, you run it however they were written. Yes, some software provides both versions, but that's entirely optional. All or most of the games affected don't have a 64-bit version, at least Borderlands 2 doesn't.

The unsupported titles literally are 32-bit, there's no way to run them in 64 bit mode

Umm you know you can ask the dev to port them to 64 bit support if you care so much or better yet do it yourself? Yeah NVidia is gonna change their engineering architecture just so some g*mer cute twinks can play the 40 fricking titles that are so trash nobody bothered to update them to 64 bit
