Well I just wanted to know on everyones thoughts about computer hardware and how it may be responsible for the decline now or in the future for computer gaming. Seems that to play todays games with decent settings you need cutting edge hardware, also the introduction of sli, crossfire, physics cards and so on mean more of a burden to the consumer. I know that you dont need the cutting edge tech to run games but without it games sure do run slow. Also looks like games today are relying to much on top-end tech and are poorly optimising their code so that those without huge wallets cant run their games well. Ahwell thats the end of my moan, What does everyone else think?? :confused:
 
As for the PhysX card - that is nothing but a wallet busting piece of crap. Only one game is actually being coded to take advantage of the card and while it looks good it murders FPS. It is a fad that will soon, hopefully, go away as graphics cards get better.
ssshhhh dont say that or potsey will hear you :D
