If at all? They are on sale already, but it obviously isn't worth getting one until their are games that support it. Are there going to be many games that support them in the near future? I can't imagine developers making games for a card which most people don't have. Physics are integral to the game, so I can't see how they can be scaled, ala graphics, for those without them, or those with older cards a few generations down the line...

PC games aren't the highest selling, and putting out a game that will probably cost a lot to develop (because it's using brand new hardware\software ), which requires an expensive card that most don't have doesn't seem such a good idea?
