Ageia Island: Is it Time to Buy a PhysX Card Yet? @ Extremetech
*Source: Extremetech (http://www.extremetech.com/article2/...63428,00.asp)*
_______________
We weren't too kind in our initial review of the Ageia PhysX physics accelerator in May of last year. At almost $300, it was expensive, and from what we could tell, it didn't do much of anything. One of the first supporting games was Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, and the additional physics interactions displayed were definitely underwhelming. Not to mention, adding the PhysX card didn't improve performance much. We closed out our negative review by saying that the card had potential, and, "We could be singing a different tune in six months. By then, perhaps there will be dozens of titles on the shelves, and maybe they'll deliver really impressive new physics interactions with the PhysX card. We'll be happy to revisit this card at a later date."
