Now that is NEWS!

Nice find mate! Cor blimy Nvidia kick some arse!

It'll certainly be interesting to see what Nvidia do with them.

 

[Mr. Smith]

It's got to be integrated physics on gfx for the next gen card...

Bout time

Gen after next perhaps, but having it part of the nvidia driverset as a standard could be darn interesting.

Will they use it more ??

 

[Mr. Smith]

For sure.

Look at how many games have 'nvidia, the way it's meant to be played' - nvidia can coerce developers to incorporate their physics code into the game...

Anyway, every game I play is gpu bound NOT cpu bound. I'd rather the cpu did more. My quad just sits there twiddling its thumbs

Man i cant wait to see them implement both technologies. When two great minds/hardware designers unify...great things happen

Nvidia isn't great... Nvidia is God!

Seriously hope they can now find a use for ageia physx ppu in games like crysis.

65nm cheaper version wouldnt hurt either.

 

[Rastalovich]

For sure.

Totally agree. Thinking back on it, u know nVidia are going to push this to game devs just like a new card with new drivers. Instead of a new seperate card.
