A Closer Look At PhysX: Our Take On The PPU @ Anandtech
Everybody's talking about the next generation of acceleration - physics processing. Anandtech take a look at what this technology could offer.
Quote:
To sum up what the hardware will offer consumers at the outset, here’s what we are looking at: 32000 rigid body objects, soft body objects, fluids, particle systems (40-50 thousand particles), and collision detections. The end result will range from cooler special effects in games (explosions, cloth-like clothing, and massive particle systems) to totally interactive environments (where anything and everything can be pushed, pulled, thrown or otherwise destroyed in a realistic way).
Explosions? Well that's me onboard!
