Hey there broken89

A keen gamer I see, well to be honest I haven't seen any preorder sites for those yet but Asus stated in March that their physx would be available in May 2006 so we should be seeing some stores offering preorders:

If I find anything I will let you know.


For those people that are asking the question - Physx! what it is? What does it do? then take a look at the video below:

All the sites I have checked out state that the 256 cards should be available in May, but those sites were last updated in March so things could have changed since then.

I would definately wait for the 256 version, or at least give it another month or so and see if they release it. The 256 version will obviously be better due to having double the memory.

If you really can't wait then you can purchase the 128 version from here:

The thing that i was thinking was i remember one of the Nvidia cards i think it was came out in either a 256 or 512 version and the extra memory didnt do any good.
