Hmm, should I get a Physx acclerator?

[Smartazz]

So the BFG Physx acclerator is only $212 after rebate, would it be worth getting. It seems as thought the improvements are great, and this technology has potential.
In case you wanted to check it out

edit: Price mistake.

Maybe in like 5 years or something, when more than 2 games support it... and only if building an ultra high end rig. Definetly not now, my money (and yours) is better spent elsewhere.

You're probobly better off with a second video card than you are with a physx card.

Seems like you have already made up your mind that you don't want one, why are you asking then? I was actually calling them impractical as well...

Well, I just read that you can spend that extra money on a second card, thing is that video cards don't last long, will the phizx card ever be upgraded? That's why I asked.

will the phizx card ever be upgraded?

If they find a way to make it not suck I'm sure they will consider it. But if they plan to do that they should do it fast, once multi-core processors hit the mainstream, 4+, dedicated physics cards will have no chance.

Oh, and I love cheap drugs!
