The one important question left unanswered is: WILL IT IMPROVE TITTY JIGGLE?

I had linked some info on this card a month or so ago in another thread, but no one really commented on it.

I do know that when they become available I will be purchasing one. Might not be many titles supporting it at release, but companies would be crazy not to support it.

Oh! Looks like they are available now. Time to start putting together a new system setup!

The GRAW demo installed the software emulator of this on my PC when I installed it last month.

It's a cute concept but we'll see how well this takes off.

300$ US for the BFG Tech one.

It'll havta be one hell of a game that required one of these to make me drop that much cash.

I'd rather buy a Wii.

I don't think any game will require one of these, but for whatever game that will support it, it should improve not only the visuals, it should improve the FPS also. If I am understanding the concept of the card correctly.

To be smart, this company would look to incorporate their technology in motherboards or existing video cards, not another seperate expansion card.

lol i just watched the side-by-side deal.

the video with Physx goes to about 1 FPS as soon as he shoots. Probably not the best demo for them :P

They claim that those are driver issues. :roll:

May very well be, but I'm still gonna get a second graphics card for SLI before I shell out for one of these.

Anandtech did a series of tests on it, and at least in a couple of games, framerate actually dropped.

Yeah, but one thing I failed to mention on my part is I never buy first generation cards.

I'm going to put together a system that will benefit fromt he PhyxX, but willw ait a bit before getting the card itself.

did you forget to mention it to yourself? maybe you should write this shit down on a bunch of post it notes and notepads like that guy from Memento, that would be totally sweet. you'd have to fuck Carrie Anne Moss, though

No, I didn't forget to mention it, but I did say it in a separate post, which you so conveniently reversed above. I just forgot to say 'the second generation card' instead of 'they' in my original post.

You don't need to worry about it though, since it's not your money I am spending.
