On PPU usage in GRAW

That is true. AGEIA PhysX had to be layered on top of Havok to extend the physics effects beyond that which could be achieved with CPU only. Imagine what you’ll see in tomorrow’s games in which all resources can be dedicated to PhysX without the hinderance of a software physics engine that runs on general purpose hardware.

Thanks for the interesting article, so the GRAW test done by Anand was pointless in terms of frame rate after all.

I recomend read a whole thread :"GRAW running with and without a PhysX PPU: The outcome is inside this thread" if you are confused

The confusion arose because the point of my post was to point out the same conclusion that one had come up with and your post seemed quite meaningless in that respect. The thread you linked to also seems to not relate to what I posted in that it does not have any indication of what I pointed out (that Ageia is layered on top of Havok). If you are confused, I recommend maybe taking this to PM.

The frame rate issues revolving around ageia being the "icing on the cake" is one thing...

however I now ponder if PhysX was added ontop as a last minute thing? Perhaps, Ageia doing a little money transfering here and there? In all honesty, if you've watched any of their press events, the meat of it all is the endless repitition of its 'the future of gaming'.

Where was Ageia during this E3? Anyone? anyone there...?
