Here's the answer: PPU, or Physics Processor Unit, http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid...e=expert&pid=1
How do I know? Look at the demo of the physics engine in UT2K7: Download the Rocket demo here, http://www.ageia.com/novodex.html
Run the Big Bang demo in Rocket to see where you stand..... Be ready for a surprise. You might get a frame rate of 10 if you are LUCKY.
The addon card is probably what we will be getting, untill the mainstream graphics card manufacturers start incorporating the PPU onto their cards, so don't go & buy a new video card yet, wait until it is the right time.
