    Hey y'all

    The PPU looks good in-game, i know there are two variants of this physics processing unit, 128MB & 256MB, i have read that only BFG & Asus are manufacturing these cards. And from what i can tell is that Asus are manufacturing the high end model. I know Scan UK don't deal with BFG but Scan UK deal with Asus, so any news as to when they arrive at Scan UK, or if even Scan UK will be selling them?. Ageia physX technology is implemented in (GRAW) Ghost Recon:Advanced Warfighter PC version, it's due out 5th may 2k6, and over at http://www.ghostrecon.net/forums/index.php, obviously there is lots of disscussion on the game tech, what's amazing is that GRIN swe is developing the game and CEO Bo Andersson (BoGRiN) and crew are telling us that without the PPU the game is superb, and with the PPU it's awesome, so i can't wait to get hold of a PPU.

    No way of telling yet as there are no gamers review of the hardware. The ppu will create more information on your screen, making your gfx card work more?, so will this affect performance? I guess with Crossfire or SLI, performance won't be an issue, but a single gfx card user may suffer framerate loss?. But then again overall performance depends on your existing hardware plus the game plus in-game video settings and monitor resolution, AA: AF: etc.
