Awesome
- Pros: This card makes the games that put it to use look incredible. The first game I played with it was Ghost recon and I shot the fence at the start and every plank went flying off the cliff. Awesome! Not to mention Cellfactor looks insane.
- Cons: Even now it is still a bit expensive considering that very few games can even put it to use.
Now after several months of owning it the fan has started to go out, this is why I only give it a 4. I would expect the fan to last alot longer! If the fan wouldn't already be going out it would have easily got a 5.
physx
- Pros: This is an awesome little card if you what to cell factor and advanced war fighter. I also liked the fact that it came with the demos of the games just so you are not disappointed when none of your games work with it.
- Cons: It is fairly expensive for the few games that utilize this card. If you are looking to greatly raise the performance of your system you should spend your money somewhere else.
- Other Thoughts: This card will not boost your 3dmark06 score because they use a ai to put a load this card so it does not help. It does however greatly improve the 3dmark05 score.
Awesome effects, when supported
- Pros: Adds awesome visual effects to games that support it; speeds up supported titles a little if you have a slow system (AGP seems to benefit); comes with a free copy of GRAW; rumor has it that the new MMORPG Warhammer will also support PhysX.
(NOTE: This card will not improve performance on unsupported games like some reviewers have mentioned, the titles have to make use of the PhysX engine to access the co-processor)
- Cons: There are not a lot of games that support it; somewhat expensive for a peripheral that doesn't have a lot of support; slows down supported titles a little if you have a fast system (PCI-E seems to take a hit).
- Other Thoughts: Check out the Ageia web site for a full list of supported games, but unfortunately that list is quite small. The three big supported titles are GRAW, GRAW2, and UT3, and it's nice to have a copy of GRAW with this version. Unfortunately, the effects in GRAW seem to be an afterthought, and although are noticeable, are not that impressive. However, you absolutely have to download and try the latest MOD pack for UT3, which includes a new modified level of "Heat Ray". The main change is that this level occurs during a hail storm, and there are literally "thousands" of hail balls hitting the ground and rolling around. This effect, along with the gravity wave canon which pulls debris toward your target, makes for one of the coolest effects I've ever seen in a game. The other two UT3 MOD levels are okay and show off what the card can do, such as "destructable" levels where you are blowing walls and floors apart to make quicker paths to your enemy's CTF base, again very cool.
