When Nvidia acquired PhysX, I was convinced it was to integrate a stronger physics processor into their video cards. Most modern games already use the GPU to some extent for physics, so this was just completing the gap. Today it was not only confirmed this was the goal, but that all 8000 series Nvidia video cards will provide PhysX support once a new software download is released. It's like getting a $100 physics card for free (ok, it won't be dedicated but it's still free). I'm holding my breath for the day I can play Warmonger with full physics effects.
