PhysX launched today.

Just to confirm, in theory just another card install along with its driver. Then games which support the cards will display extra features?

Is this right?

Can't wait to see the prices.

raja · 1 Apr 2006 at 19:10

with that moniker, does it really matter?

£150 maybe but 200 quid...!? :eek:

Definately wont be buying one for a little while it would seem. Be good to hear from anyone that does tho as im interested to see how they perform

BubbySoup · 7 Apr 2006 at 11:10

£200 - that's kinda laughable really

Was really hoping for £150 to be the maximum price point.

Heartless_King · 7 Apr 2006 at 11:10

Agreed

BubbySoup · 7 Apr 2006 at 11:20

Well, at that price it really does need a killer-killer app right now because I just can't see people forking out that kind of cash for something that only GRAW will use in the near future.

Lanz · 7 Apr 2006 at 11:24

haha lets all preorder so we get our cards first, so we can play some tech demos...

No1 in their right mind would spend that much on release, especially seeing as nothing really is out to take full advantage of it. I would if i had money to burn

Imagine how much the 256MB asus one is gonna cost :eek:

Oh well new tech is always gonna be expensive... even if its kinda useless.

Fingers crossed it'll drop in price by the time some decent games come out.
