hmmm...only thing i can say is: why does the GRAPHICS processor want to perform the PHYSICS calculations? Gamers and game designers need to make the jump to independent PPUs (physics processing units) the jump from integrated graphics to independent GPUs created revolutionary new possibilities for gaming, it's time they embraced something new and not dump the physics on the gpu


oh btw i've got the nVidia version of the 8800 Ultra... it's nais

but waiting a few months for more power sounds like a good idea

They had the lead for awhile, but they're starting to slip back into #2 in the video card race. I'd say Nvidia is back on top at #1.
