Title: Anyone heard about PPU?
Post by: PRCman on June 02, 2011, 03:50:15 AM
AGEIA PhysX PPU card for physical simulation

Anyone tried programming on that hardware?

Was wondering about those recently. Ever since CUDA and Stream started doing what PhysX does i have one of those cards that's not even used...
If it can get me some megahashes - that'd be pretty awesome...
