The avialability of Ageia PPU caught my eye. It's interesting that they pointed out that to get the full benefit of the PPU one would STILL need to caugh up the dough for an SLI graphics setup. So it won't make sense to compromise by getting just a single GPU and a PPU with it. With the additional object rendering put out by the PPU the system will need even more graphics power to keep up. PC gaming is going to get very pricey in the coming year. Not that it doesn't carry a hefty pricetag already. :roll:
