Who's Getting A Ageia PhysX PC Card ? - GoFuckYourself.com

I believe this is gonna be the latest breakthrough in gaming performance, it's the Ageia PhysX card. It's a PCI card pretty much handles all of the physics in a game and in doing that, it can pull off some amazing effects. Here's the page with the details http://www.ageia.com/physx/index.html

Here's a comparison between a game with PhysX enabled and without, it's quite a difference - http://www.ageia.com/physx_in_action/footage.html (click thumbs to play clips)

I think that this card is gonna open up a lot of new doors for gaming visuals.

I ordered my card through EastLuna.com, they shipped it out yesterday, so I'll have it here tomarrow, I also ordered Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter because it's supposed to be one of the current games that support it. I can't wait to try it out.

The card is nearly $300, but I'm a gamer and I can't help it, I have to have the latest toys

No games supports it yet, so I'll wait a year or so, but by then it'll be on every ATI or Nvidia card

There's a handful of games that support it http://www.ageia.com/physx/titles.html and more coming. With Unreal Tournament 2007 coming out in November and supporting it, it's gonna be a MUST HAVE item

at this very moment I doubt there's more than a couple titles that actually support it. Once Valve updates the source engine, I'll probably buy it

Maybe if I build a new desktop machine but I don't plan on doing that for a year or so.
